The itel S23 is the latest smartphone from the company to launch in Kenya. You can get this phone in Kenya for Ksh 14,500. This is the most expensive smartphone from itel to launch in Kenya this year. It is the most appealing smartphone from the company ever. Well built and decent specifications summarize what it has to offer. Itel seems to be taking a new direction with the overall design and build quality of their smartphones and I love it.
The itel S23 was launched in other markets including Nigeria last month but we have had some delays in Kenya. The itel S23 is available in Nigeria for ₦ 75,990. The issue with new tax requirements by KRA have delayed the launch of this phone in Kenya.
The itel S23 has some decent specifications including 8GB of RAM, 50MP back camera, a massive 5000 mAh battery just to name a few. I was particularly impressed with 8GB of RAM on an itel smartphone. The price listed above is for the 4GB RAM variant which is still impressive. The phone also has a 90Hz display which is the first time I am seeing it on an itel phone. Have a look at the phone’s other specifications below.
