Samsung Galaxy S24 Series Key Specs Suggested, Ultra Model May Get 144Hz Refresh Rate Display

The Samsung Galaxy S24 series is expected to go on sale next year. The flagship series is expected to include three models, like its predecessors the Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24 Plus and Galaxy S24 Ultra. Earlier this year, the company launched the Galaxy S23 series, which includes the Samsung Galaxy S23, Samsung Galaxy S23+, and Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. Since then, the South Korean tech giant has launched numerous other smartphones and is expected to launch more later this year.

According to report The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra will feature a 144Hz refresh rate display. So far, Samsung has only used display panels with refresh rates up to 120Hz. Even the Galaxy S23 Ultra, part of the Samsung Galaxy S23 series, has a 120Hz refresh rate display. The Galaxy S24 Ultra could be the first Samsung phone to feature a 144Hz display, which should offer smoother animations and gameplay.

The report also suggests several other specifications for the Galaxy S24 series. The models may be powered by the yet-to-be-announced Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC and feature UFS 4.1 storage. The phones are expected to boot with One UI 6.0 based on Android 14. The cameras are reported to feature 200-megapixel sensors with unspecified enhancements and improved zoom capabilities. Since nothing has been officially announced about the Galaxy S24 series yet, all these reports and specifications should be taken with a grain of salt.

The report also mentions the possibility of including Samsung satellite communications in the Galaxy S24 series. Earlier this year, T.M. Ro, president and head of Samsung’s mobile experience division, said in interview with CNET that it’s too early to implement this feature on Samsung devices as satellite functionality is still quite limited on smartphones.

“When there is the right time, infrastructure and technology [is] ready, then, of course, for Samsung Galaxy, for our mobile division, we are also actively considering the possibility of introducing this feature, ”added Ro.
