Release Date and Price
There’s growing excitement among tech enthusiasts as last year’s Galaxy S23 launch date approaches. Samsung announced the current Galaxy S23 on Feb 1 and shipped it by Feb 17.
Will history repeat itself for the Galaxy S24 release date?
Despite the possibility of a mid-February announcement, the latest Galaxy S24 leaks suggest an earlier launch on Jan 17.
If true, the pre-orders could open on Jan 18, with the phone hitting store shelves by Jan 30.
While the pricing details of the new Samsung Galaxy are still a secret, analysts predict they'll likely stick to the current models, especially for the UK and Australian markets.
Galaxy S24 Models
Most of the Galaxy S24 leaks mention the same trio of models as earlier Samsung flagships when talking about rumored features.
So it’s likely that the Samsung Galaxy S24 Series will feature the same three models:
- the standard Galaxy S24
- Galaxy S24 Plus
- and Samsung Galaxy S4 Ultra
While this is the dominant belief, there are a few less prominent reports hinting at Samsung possibly discontinuing the Plus model.
Only Samsung knows the truth, but in the world of tech, surprises like this are always possible.
Generative AI Features on Flagship S24
The upcoming Samsung Galaxy S24 series is rumored to significantly embrace AI technology.
Dubbed an 'AI phone' by some, the new Samsung phone of 2024 might feature Samsung's own large language model called Samsung Gauss.
This on-device could enable functionalities like summarizing documents, translating in apps, and assisting in email composition, all without needing an internet connection.
However, there's speculation that these AI features might require a subscription. If true, that will be a major turn-off for many fans.

The S24 Ultra is rumored to have a lighter yet stronger titanium frame, weighing 233g.
