It’s smartphone rumor time and this time of the year, Samsung’s flagship Galaxy S line of phones are on the spot. We have now more details of the S24 and S24 Ultra — which are due to launch early next year.
The latest info from Windows Report shows Samsung images that include the Galaxy S24 Ultra with a new flattened screen design. The images clearly showed sharper screen edges akin to the changes made with the regular S23 from earlier this year, instead of the gentle curve, and a new gray color finish.
The details of the leaks seem boring for a usual Samsung flagship owner, as most are just incremental improvements. The upcoming Galaxy S24 series of phones will come with on-device generative AI software which will use the company’s in-house Gauss model. Today’s leaks claim the S24 devices will use the tech to translate messaging apps in real-time and in over a dozen languages.
Other rumors indicated that Galaxy S24, S24 Plus, and S24 Ultra all have Qualcomm modems with Smart Transit functionality. The combination suggests every S24 model, at least in the US, will be equipped with the new on-device AI-capable Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chips. However, there’s still a possibility international versions of the standard S24 could end up with Samsung’s own Exynos processors and modems like in previous years.
The Galaxy S24 Ultra is also getting a titanium frame, an upgraded 50MP 5x telephoto camera, better vapor chamber cooling, and Wi-Fi 7 (may not be usable yet). On the spec side, the Ultra model will still have a 6.8-inch Quad-HD screen, 120Hz refresh rate, storage options, 12GB of RAM, and a 5,000mAh battery all similar to the S23 Ultra.

Meanwhile, the standard Galaxy S24 and S24 Plus model designs are looking similar to their S23 counterparts. But they do get new color finishes in onyx black, marble gray, cobalt violet, and amber yellow. Notably, the new Ultra also has color options this time around that match the regular S24 phones. The previous details match up with the new leaks that point to a larger 6.7-inch Quad-HD screen, a bigger 4,900mAh battery, and more RAM at 12GB for the S24 Plus. The regular S24, however, will get very small bumps in screen size at 6.2 inches and battery at 4,000mAh. We should expect to see these phones announced early next year at a Samsung Unpacked event.
