The Samsung Galaxy S24 lineup represents Samsung Electronics’ premium range of Android-powered smartphones within its flagship Galaxy S series portfolio, succeeding the previous generation Galaxy S23 models.[1][2] This series was officially introduced during the Galaxy Unpacked event held in San Jose, California on January17,2024,[3][4] whereas the Fan Edition variant was later revealed at the company’s September26,2024 Galaxy Unpacked presentation.[5]

The initial trio—the standard S24, the larger S24+, and the top-tier S24 Ultra—became available in markets across the United States and Europe starting January31,2024; meanwhile,the Fan Edition model saw its worldwide launch on October3,2024.The entire series was eventually succeeded by the Samsung Galaxy S25 lineup announced on January22,2025.[6]

The Galaxy S24 lineup consists of four models, maintaining the same screen dimensions and arrangement as the prior Galaxy S23 series. The flagship model, Galaxy S24, sports a flat 6.2-inch (155 mm) display. The Galaxy S24+ offers comparable specifications but with a larger 6.7-inch (168 mm) screen. Meanwhile, the Galaxy S24 Ultra presents a flat 6.8-inch (173 mm) display featuring sharper edges, setting it apart from the base variant. In markets such as the U.S., Canada, China, Macau, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Japan, the S24 and S24+ are driven by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, while other regions receive devices powered by the Exynos 2400 chipset. The S24 Ultra is uniformly equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 worldwide.[7][8] By contrast, the S24 FE utilizes an underclocked version of the Exynos 2400 called the Exynos 2400e across all markets, including North America.[9]

S24 and S24+

The Galaxy S24 and S24+ models feature aluminum frames paired with matte glass backs and come in four standard hues: Amber Yellow, Marble Gray, Cobalt Violet, and Onyx Black. Additionally, three exclusive colors—Jade Green, Sapphire Blue, and Sandstone Orange—are offered solely via Samsung's online store. The Galaxy S24 Ultra is crafted from titanium and available in similar shades.[10] Meanwhile, the Galaxy S24 FE is presented in a limited palette of five colors: Blue, Graphite, Gray, Mint, and Yellow.

Display

The Galaxy S24 and S24+ feature a "Dynamic AMOLED 2X" screen equipped with HDR10+ compatibility, a peak brightness reaching 2600 nits, an LTPO backplane, and "dynamic tone mapping" capabilities, all protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2. In contrast, the Galaxy S24 FE offers a peak brightness of 1900 nits and utilizes an LTPS backplane. While all variants incorporate ultrasonic under-display fingerprint sensor technology, the S24 FE distinguishes itself by employing an optical in-screen fingerprint reader. The display on the S24 lineup supports a variable refresh rate spanning from 1 Hz or 24 Hz up to 120 Hz, except for the S24 FE, which adjusts between 60 Hz and 120 Hz.

The Galaxy S24 Ultra builds upon the S24+’s features by incorporating Corning Gorilla Glass Armor glass for its screen protection. Unlike its predecessors—the Galaxy S23 Ultra and Galaxy S22 Ultra—it eliminates the curved edges in favor of a flat design.

Batteries

The internal battery capacities vary across the Galaxy S24 series: the S24 contains a 4,000 mAh Li-ion battery; the S24+ is fitted with a 4,900 mAh unit; the S24 Ultra includes a larger 5,000 mAh battery; and the S24 FE houses a 4,700 mAh Li-ion battery. Charging speeds differ as well—both the S24 and S24 FE support charging at up to 25 watts whereas the S24+ and S24 Ultra can charge at speeds reaching 45 watts.

Connectivity

Connectivity options for the Galaxy S24 series include support for 5G in SA/NSA/Sub6 bands along with Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth version 5.3 on the Galaxy S24, S24+, and S24 FE models. The Galaxy S24 Ultra extends this with compatibility for Wi-Fi 7 (IEEE 802.11be) and ultra-wideband (UWB) technology. All variants provide access to mmWave 5G exclusively within the United States.

Memory and storage

The Galaxy S24 lineup utilizes LPDDR5X RAM operating at speeds of 4,800 MT/s paired with Universal Flash Storage technology—version 3.1 for configurations starting at 128 GB and version 4.0 for capacities of 256 GB or more.

Software

The Galaxy S24 series ships with Android 14 preloaded, representing the most recent Android iteration at launch. This version enhances accessibility by allowing font sizes to be increased up to 200%, an improvement over the previous 130%, while employing nonlinear scaling to avoid excessively large text elements on the display. Additionally, the system supports configuring the phone as a webcam for use with Samsung tablets.Template:Fix/category[citation needed]

Besides Android 14, these devices feature the One UI 6.1 interface layer. This update introduces advanced AI capabilities branded as "Galaxy AI," which leverage a hybrid of on-device and cloud-based AI models. In mainland China, Baidu's Ernie model serves as the cloud AI partner,[11] whereas international markets, including Hong Kong and Taiwan, utilize Google's Gemini Pro model.[12] Consistent with earlier One UI versions, One UI 6.1 retains features such as split-screen multitasking, customizable home screens, and enhanced battery optimization.

Samsung has committed to providing seven years of security updates and operating system upgrades for the Galaxy S24 lineup.[13]

All models integrate Google's on-device Gemini Nano, a technology also featured in Google's Pixel 8 Pro[14] and Pixel 9 devices.

Starting with the Galaxy S24, Samsung has discontinued support for 32-bit applications on all new smartphones and tablets within the Galaxy lineup. However, devices released before this model will maintain compatibility with 32-bit apps.[15]

Given the Galaxy S24's eligibility for seven years of OS updates, it is expected to receive at least three additional major Android version upgrades beyond Android 18.[13]

Update lifecycle

Starting in April 2025, Samsung initiated the deployment of the One UI 7 upgrade for the Galaxy S24 lineup as well as the Galaxy Z6 models. This update delivers a comprehensive redesign of the One UI interface, adapted from the Galaxy S25 series. Key elements such as icons, widgets, the camera application, and lock screen have undergone significant visual changes. By default, the quick panel is now divided into two separate sections—the notification panel and the control panel—though users can opt to revert to the previous single-panel arrangement. On US variants of the Galaxy, Samsung Messages has been replaced by Google's messaging app to enable RCS support, but Samsung Messages remains accessible as an optional download via the Galaxy Store. The release discontinues support for DeX for PC and downloadable edge panels, encouraging users to transition to Link to Windows or third-party solutions. Additionally, this update introduces new ringtones and notification tones, marking the first such additions since the launch of the Galaxy S10 series.

S Pen odor concerns

A number of users reported that the Galaxy S24 Ultra's S Pen emits an unpleasant odor reminiscent of "burnt plastic." A representative from Samsung’s EU forums explained that this smell is a normal byproduct of the pen’s operation and does not indicate any issue requiring concern.

This scent is believed to result from chemical interactions involving the S Pen’s plastic casing triggered by heat generated inside the device.
