Hot on the heels of the Galaxy S24 and S24+ leaks, Samsung enthusiasts now have a third treat to savor—the Galaxy S24 Ultra. A new set of 360-degree video renders, courtesy of a collaboration between Smartprix and renowned tipster ONLEAKS, offers a comprehensive look at what could be Samsung’s crowning jewel for 2024.
Design Evolution: A Nod to the Past with a Glimpse of the Future
The Galaxy S24 Ultra’s design can be best described as evolutionary rather than revolutionary. It pays homage to its predecessor, the Galaxy S23 Ultra, while introducing subtle yet impactful changes. Key design highlights include:
Sleek Bezel Trim
The 6.8-inch WQHD+ display now boasts one of the narrowest bezels in the smartphone market, giving it an aesthetically pleasing, symmetrical look.
Quad Camera and S-Pen Holster
The phone features a quad-camera setup in a unique circular module. Plus, stylus enthusiasts will appreciate the dedicated S-Pen holster, a signature feature carried over from previous models.
UWB Antenna and Titanium Frame
In line with emerging trends, a UWB (Ultra-Wideband) antenna is integrated into the right side edge of the device. Additionally, Samsung seems to have taken a page out of Apple’s playbook by incorporating a titanium frame, which not only lends a premium feel but also slightly reduces the device’s weight.
Compact Yet Robust
The device measures 162.3 x 79 x 8.7mm and weighs 233g, making it a bit shorter but wider than its predecessor. The battery remains at a substantial 5000mAh but now benefits from 45W fast charging.
Performance and Display: A Symphony of High-End Specs
The Galaxy S24 Ultra is expected to feature a 6.8-inch LTPO AMOLED panel with a QHD+ resolution, taking the display game to a new level with a peak brightness of 2,200 nits. Under the hood, the device will exclusively utilize the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, designed specifically “for Galaxy,” promising top-tier performance.
Camera Capabilities: Pushing the Envelope
Rumors point to a groundbreaking 200MP primary camera featuring the ISOCELL HP25X sensor. This advanced sensor is expected to enhance photography with features like Super Quad Phase Detection autofocus and pixel binning (4-in-1 and 16-in-1). Additionally, a 50MP 3x telephoto camera is anticipated to significantly boost image quality.
