Samsung Galaxy S24: Rumors, Release Date, Price, Design, Display, Cameras, and Specs
The rumors surrounding the Samsung Galaxy S24 have been buzzing since the reveal of Apple’s iPhone 15 in early September. As mobile OS agnostics debate between Android and iPhone, others eagerly await the release of the Galaxy S24 series. In this article, we will delve into all the rumors and leaks about the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+, and Galaxy S24 Ultra phones.
Samsung Galaxy S24 Release Date
The release date of the Samsung Galaxy S24 is rumored to be in January or February of next year. Let’s take a look at the release dates of its predecessors:
- Samsung Galaxy S21: Jan. 29, 2021
- Samsung Galaxy S22: Feb. 25, 2022
- Samsung Galaxy S23: Feb. 1, 2023
While the Galaxy S23 was unveiled at Galaxy Unpacked on Feb. 1, there’s a new rumor that Samsung plans to push back the release date for the Galaxy S24 series by one month. This means we may see the next-generation flagship phone line in January 2024, according to South Korean outlet The Elec.
Samsung Galaxy S24 Price
The pricing of the Samsung Galaxy S24 remains a mystery, but there are whispers about Samsung considering dropping the Plus model from its lineup. However, this speculation has been met with skepticism from @Tech_Reve, a reputable leaker with a “respectable track record.” While there may have been talks about ending the Plus model, it’s unlikely to happen with the Samsung Galaxy S24 series.
As for the pricing, there haven’t been many leaks, indicating that there may not be a price hike next year. The starting prices of the last three generations were:
- Samsung Galaxy S21, S21+, S21 Ultra: $799, $999, $1,199
- Samsung Galaxy S22, S22+, S22 Ultra: $799, $999, $1,199
- Samsung Galaxy S23, S23+, S23 Ultra: $799, $999, $1,199
Pricing has remained consistent since the Galaxy S21 line in 2021, but it’s uncertain whether there will be any changes next year.
Samsung Galaxy S24 Design
According to reputable leaker @Tech_Reve, the design language of the Samsung Galaxy S24 won’t see any major changes. However, Ice Universe suggests that the Galaxy S24 Ultra may drop its curved-screen aesthetics for a flat-panel look. There are also rumors about the possibility of the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra switching to a titanium frame, similar to the iPhone 15 Pro models.
Samsung Galaxy S24 Display
Ice Universe reveals that the Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus will likely have a slightly larger display size compared to its predecessor. The screen sizes for both generations are as follows:
Samsung Galaxy S23 display size: – Samsung Galaxy S23: 6.1 inches – Samsung Galaxy S23+: 6.6 inches – Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra: 6.8 inches
Samsung Galaxy S24 display size (rumored): – Samsung Galaxy S24: 6.1 inches – Samsung Galaxy S24+: 6.65 inches – Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra: 6.8 inches
Furthermore, the resolution gap between the S24+ and S24 Ultra may narrow, with both models potentially featuring better-quality WQHD+ resolution. It’s also expected that the Galaxy S24 and S24+ models will adopt LTPO (Low-Temperature Polycrystalline Oxide) panels, allowing for a smooth transition between 1Hz and 120Hz refresh rates. Additionally, there are rumors of the Galaxy S24 Ultra having a 144Hz refresh rate, making for a seamless and responsive user experience.
Samsung Galaxy S24 Cameras
There are conflicting reports regarding the camera specifications of the Samsung Galaxy S24. Initial reports suggested that the Ultra model would feature a 50MP camera with 5x optical zoom and a 10MP lens with 3x optical zoom. However, Ice Universe later changed their stance, indicating that the 10MP, 10x sensor might be replaced with a 50MP, 5x camera. The other models are anticipated to have a 50MP wide camera, a 10MP 3x telephoto camera, and a 12MP ultra-wide shooter with a 120-degree field of view, as in previous generations.
Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra Specs and New Features
According to SamMobile, the Samsung Galaxy S24 series will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, boasting a GPU that’s 50% faster than its predecessor found in the Galaxy S23 line. This raises the question of whether the new GPU, likely to be called Adreno 750, will surpass the A17 Pro inside the iPhone 15 Pro models in terms of graphics prowess.
SamMobile also reports that all Galaxy S24 models will start with 256GB of storage and 12GB of RAM. Additionally, there might be an Ultra model variant with 1TB of storage and 16GB of RAM. Lastly, Samsung may incorporate satellite connectivity, a feature inspired by Apple, into the new S24 line.
As we await the official release, these rumors and leaks provide exciting insights into what we can expect from the Samsung Galaxy S24 series. Will it win over Android and iPhone agnostics or entice Samsung Galaxy S-series fans to upgrade? Only time will tell.
