Samsung’s next-generation flagship phone, the Galaxy S24 Ultra, is rumored to embrace cutting-edge technology with the inclusion of a titanium alloy frame. The speculation is sparked by renowned Samsung leaker “Ice Universe,” whose recent tweet features the periodic table with the number “22,” corresponding to titanium’s atomic number.

Cost Considerations: Titanium vs. Aluminum

The possible adoption of a titanium alloy frame by Samsung has garnered attention, especially after reports surfaced about Apple’s iPhone 15 Pro models also considering this premium material. Titanium offers a higher strength-to-weight ratio compared to stainless steel or aluminum alloy frames, making it an appealing choice for flagship devices.

However, it’s essential to note that titanium alloy comes at a significantly higher cost than aluminum alloy. Samsung might be testing the waters by introducing the titanium alloy frame exclusively in the Galaxy S24 Ultra model.

According to Sammobile, it’s possible that Samsung may incorporate “Armor Aluminum” in the Galaxy S24 product lineup while the titanium alloy frame is expected to be reserved for future flagship models.

The move towards using titanium alloy in smartphones mirrors the trend already seen in the smartwatch industry, showcasing the continuous pursuit of innovation and premium materials by tech giants like Samsung and Apple.

Anyway, if the rumors hold true, consumers can look forward to a flagship phone with a titanium alloy frame that promises enhanced durability and a touch of luxury. Samsung is also working on a new battery tech for the upcoming Galaxy S24 series. The battery tech is inspired by electric vehicles and it can significantly increase battery performance.
