The purpose of setting the Hotspot MAC address to a Randomized MAC or Phone MAC on the Galaxy S23 is to enhance your privacy and security when using the mobile hotspot feature.

When you enable the Randomized MAC address option, your device will generate a new MAC address each time you turn on the mobile hotspot. This can help to prevent other devices from tracking your phone's MAC address and identifying your device on the network. It can also prevent unauthorized access to your mobile hotspot, as it will make it more difficult for hackers or other malicious actors to target your device.

On the other hand, when you enable the Phone MAC option, your device will use the same MAC address as your phone when you turn on the mobile hotspot. This can be useful if you need to connect to a network that only allows specific MAC addresses to access it. By using the same MAC address as your phone, you can ensure that you are able to connect to the network without any issues.

Both options can be found in the hotspot settings on Samsung Galaxy S23. The Randomized MAC address option is typically found under the Advanced settings, while the Phone MAC option is usually located under the MAC address settings.
