Samsung’s Galaxy S series is the most awaited smartphone lineup every year. If you’re eagerly waiting for the Samsung S24 lineup featuring the standard Galaxy S24, S24+, and S24 Ultra, we have a lot of things to tell you. Here are all the leaks, rumours, and news covering the design, specs, features, price, and other things of Samsung Galaxy S24, S24+, and S24 Ultra.
Fans are already looking forward to the next series of devices. Apple’s iPhone 15 lineup is also coming, and Samsung’s Galaxy S24 series will give a very close competition. Considering the early rumours, it will be another Android vs iOS battle, and the former seems to have an edge over the latter.
Let’s hope they turn out to be true and fans get a stellar Android device. You can look at all our information about the upcoming Samsung devices and what we want to see.
Samsung Galaxy S24 Series Models & Colors:
The Samsung Galaxy S24 series will include three variants- the standard S24, a higher-end S24+, and the top-class S24 Ultra. These models will be available in several RAM/ Storage and colour variants. The recent leaks hint that the upcoming lineup is set to expand the RAM and storage on the base devices.
The Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+ will likely start with 8GB of RAM, while the Ultra model will be available in both 8GB and 12GB variants. Several reports coming from reliable tipsters claim that the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+ will have the 256GB storage option. So, it’s unknown if the 128GB mode will go obsolete.
Coming to the colour options, the Galaxy S24 series will likely retain the standard colours like Phantom Black, Phantom White, Green, and others. The Galaxy S23 lineup was launched with four base colours across all variants, while four more colours were exclusively available on the official Samsung website.
This was a first in the history of the series. We believe Samsung will continue the trend, and the lineup will release with four base colour options. However, more colour options will be sold exclusively in their store.
Samsung Galaxy S24, S24+, And S24 Ultra Design & Display:
The early leaks are not suggesting major design changes in the upcoming Galaxy S lineup. Last year, Samsung introduced the design of the Ultra model to the standard and variants. This further makes us believe we shouldn’t set our expectations high on the design front.
However, Samsung could surprise us all with a revolutionary design on Galaxy S24 Ultra. However, a sensible guess is that major upgrades will take place under the design. There are several radical ‘concept designs’ available online. None of them resembles what the final look could be.
For the display, Samsung could stay with the 6.8-inch display for the Galaxy S24 Ultra. Meanwhile, the Galaxy S24 would feature a 6.1-inch display, and the Galaxy S24+ would boast a 6.6-inch screen. The biggest upgrade in the display could be its refresh rate.
Samsung offers a 120Hz refresh rate on the S23 Ultra and other models. However, one report claims that the tech giant could upscale it even further and offer a 144Hz refresh rate on Galaxy S24 Ultra. It’s unknown if the standard Galaxy S24 and S24+ will be getting the upgrade and if they’ll stick to 120Hz.
Samsung Galaxy S24, S24+, And S24 Ultra Specs:
The upcoming lineup will likely boast major specs changes, focusing on the processor, GPU, RAM, and storage. A leak from tipster Tarun Vats (via Twitter) suggests that the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra could get 16GB of RAM, and the default storage capacity will be increased across all models.
We could see more default storage capacity on all Galaxy S24 models, including the S24 Ultra. Leaker Tauran Vats also claimed that the base memory of the S24 and S24+ could be upgraded to 12GB, and the S24 Ultra’s storage could be boosted to 256 GB. Several other sources, including @Tech_Reve have backed this report.
The Samsung Galaxy S24 series will run on Qualcomm’s latest premium chipset, which will likely be Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 (if the company sticks to its naming scheme). The powerful processor will likely be unveiled at the end of this year, but a report claims that it could launch earlier than expected to “fight off Apple iPhone 15.”
Apple is set to unveil the Bionic A17 chipset built on the 3nm process. This could put Qualcomm’s high-end chip at a disadvantage. However, a report claims that the Galaxy S24 will have a GPU which is 50% faster than its predecessor. In addition to that, Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 will also support UFS 4.1 storage as per Tech_Reve.
Samsung may also offer the Exynos-based variant of the Galaxy S24 Ultra and other models in some regions after the backlash they faced on the current lineup being exclusively available with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon chipset. However, we can’t confirm the availability just yet.
Samsung S24 Ultra Camera Leaks And Rumors:
Samsung introduced a revolutionary 200MP camera in the S23 Ultra and will carry the legacy to the upcoming Galaxy S24 Ultra. However, there are reports that the company will make some improvements to the sensor, which could mean anything from a wider aperture to allow in more light for improved colour reproduction.
The major change is set to happen with the Telephoto lens, as per @Tech_Reve’s report. He claims that the Galaxy S24 Ultra may feature a new 3-10x variable folded telephoto lens, replacing the two dedicated lenses in the current design.
The new lens will feature a periscope design and can change focal length while connecting to a single sensor. Another improvement tip coming from @SamLover says that the Galaxy S24 Ultra will combine the 3x optical zoom and the 10x zoom telephoto cameras for a single one with 100x Space Zoom.
Improved zooming capabilities mean that users can get closer to the things in focus. Samsung will also make minor calibrations to the newly introduced front camera. We expect improved image processing and integration of AI systems in the devices for suitable manipulation.
Features That We’d Like To See On S24 Ultra:
There are many rumours about Samsung adding some interesting features to the premium flagship device, Galaxy S24 Ultra. According to SamLove, the Galaxy S24 Ultra will introduce satellite connectivity which was previously rumoured for Galaxy S23 Ultra.
This would allow the device to match up the level of the iPhone 14’s feature that allows users to send emergency messages without needing cellular connectivity. However, it’s unknown whether Samsung will add the feature only to the Ultra variant or if it’ll also be a part of the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+.
We’d like to see other features on the Galaxy S24 Ultra: faster charging, an upgraded S Pen, and WiFi 7. Fortunately, all these are rumoured to be coming with the upcoming smartphone. Most premium smartphones are equipped with WiFi 6 or WiFi 6E standards.
One report suggests that the Galaxy S24 Ultra would adopt the latest technological evolution if it’s available in time. Another report claims that Samsung will add new capabilities to the S Pen. They may include new S Pen Air Actions or possible remote control of the device functions.
One thing that the Galaxy S23 Ultra lacked was fast charging capabilities. It was stuck on 45W charging while a wide range of modern Android devices has topped that. Being the industry leader, Samsung wouldn’t want others to beat it in any aspect. Hence, the Galaxy S24 Ultra needs to charge faster than its predecessor.
Samsung Galaxy S24 Lineup Expected Release Date
There is no official info about the Galaxy S24 series release date. However, there are no reports about the possible delay either. So, we are assuming Samsung will stick to the regular release schedule, and the devices may come sometime in the second in the first three months of the next year.
This means that Samsung could announce the Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+, and Galaxy S24 Ultra in February 2023. Our speculation is based on the fact that the Galaxy S23 lineup was released in February earlier this year.
The second half of the year will be dedicated to the rumoured foldable Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5. We’ll post on the leaks and rumours about them later. For now, we are trying to figure out when the release of the Galaxy S24 Ultra is taking place, as fans are eagerly waiting for the beast.
Samsung Galaxy S24 Series Price Speculation:
There’s no information about the Galaxy S24 lineup device prices either. However, we expect Samsung to continue with the pricing scheme of the current series. This means that the standard Galaxy S24 would cost $799, the S24+ would cost $999, and the highest-end S24 Ultra would cost $1,199.
The company may even increase the price slightly due to the rising cost of smartphone parts worldwide. And we don’t have any expectations for the price cuts. Keeping the prices stable would be the best shot the company could offer the users on their devices.
When more information is available about the prices or if there are any leaks present, we will add more information to this section. For now, you can move further with our speculation.
Frequently Asked Questions:
A: Yes, there will be a Galaxy S24 Ultra, possibly coming sometime in February 2024. Although it’s not officially confirmed yet, Samsung wouldn’t cut their most successful smartphone line just like that. We are sure it’s coming and will be the most premium model in the Galaxy S24 series.
A: The Galaxy S24 Ultra will top the specs, design, features, and other capabilities of the current Galaxy S23 Ultra. It’ll use the highest-end latest Snapdragon processor with UFS 4.1 storage, increased RAM and storage, a new design with a combined telephoto lens with 100X Space Zoom, a bigger battery, and faster charging support.
A: Samsung Galaxy S24 will be launched with significant upgrades and boosts from the existing Galaxy S23. It’ll have new and more powerful processing with around 50% faster GPU performance as per the available reports. It’ll also have a better rear camera, a more fine-tuned front camera, and better-zooming abilities.
A: Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra will be running on the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, the newest and the fastest chipset from Qualcomm at the time of the device’s release.
