Let’s customize your Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra side key features
Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is an amazing smartphone and if you have already received a new unit, then hop on this train and let’s first customize its important side key features.
Similar to its predecessors, Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra has some default settings, this includes the side key options for double press and press & hold. For example, the double press is set to Quick launch camera, and the press & hold action is set to wake up the Bixby voice assistant.
To change the side key features of your Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. First, open up the Settings menu, tap on “Advanced Features” go to “Side key” and check the following.
You can enable or disable the double press by using the slider. The default option is Quick launch camera but you can also assign this action to open an app or a system feature, such as a torch.
Below, you can also change the press and hold from Bixby to the power menu, if you want your beloved side key to provide traditional convenience.
Should I turn Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra’s side into a power button?
Samsung has already arranged a virtual power key on the quick panel. Alternatively, you can also turn off the phone by pressing the side key and volume down combination. Furthermore, you have the option to say “Turn off the phone” Bixby voice command to shut down the device.
Controversial Side Key:
The history of Samsung’s power key and its controversy is not unknown to the people who owned a Samsung Galaxy S8 or later device. For starters, the Galaxy S8 and the following models dedicated the physical side key to a Bixy trigger.
This change caused mayhem among consumers, as the key was pressed accidentally, and each time, it was causing a disturbance in the user experience. After feedback, Samsung rolled out a Bixby update that allowed them to trigger Bixby on double press.
After a year, Samsung stepped backward and launched a feature to freely customize the power key to assign both double press and press and hold features.
Samsung is reportedly working on the development of the Galaxy S24 FE. Earlier this year, the company released the Galaxy S24 flagships, which are selling well globally. Now, the company has started work on its next budget flagship, with a release expected later this year.
GalaxyClub reports that Samsung is developing the Galaxy S24 FE with the R12 codename. The codename aligns with Samsung’s previous releases as the S20 FE was codenamed R8, the S21 FE was R9, the S23 FE was R11, and the R11 (S22 FE) was in development but hasn’t been released.
It was reported that Samsung might launch the S24 FE in the summer. As the development starts late, the release may be pushed to later this year, as testing and production aren’t finalized yet. The latest report also has no other details than the device’s codename.
Galaxy S23 FE has the hardware specs of the S22 series, however, the S24 FE might bring the latest. If it happens, we might see a price hike in the next budget flagship. New Galaxy AI features are also expected to debut with the S24 FE, before the S25 series launch next year.
Samsung is also working on an affordable Galaxy Z Fold 6, which would be the first Fan Edition foldable. Judging from the 2023 release strategy, it’s expected that the Galaxy S24 FE might launch alongside the Galaxy Z Fold FE, new FE tablets.

The US variant of Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 will be equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor. There were reports that Samsung may expand the Exynos chipset to its foldable lineup, which doesn’t seem to be happening, at least in the United States.
Recently, Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 US variant was spotted on Geekbench with Snapdragon chip. It isn’t surprising as the company is following its conventional chipset strategy. We expect that it will be the same chipset used in the Galaxy S24 Ultra, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy.
The Flip 6 smartphone scored 15084 points on Geekbench’s GPU test. Due to its foldable form factor, the device may miss a Galaxy S24-like larger cooling technology. Still, its impressive 15000+ points in the GPU test indicates that Samsung has greatly optimized the software.
The company still has three months remaining in the launch event. More performance improvements will likely be achieved before the Unpacked. The South Korean tech giant will likely unveil the next-gen foldable phones in mid-July.
This year, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra would join the standard Galaxy Z Fold 6 and the Galaxy Z Flip 6. In addition, an affordable variant of Fan Edition branding is also in development. However, the cheaper foldable would miss some pro-grade specs to maintain the price.
