As we get closer to 2024, rumors and leaks regarding the Samsung Galaxy S24 lineup of flagship smartphones have started surfacing online. Now, the latest reports hint that the Galaxy S24 series might follow Apple’s footsteps and use a new premium metal chassis.

Samsung Galaxy S24 series to launch with titanium body

According to known tipster Revengus on X (formerly Twitter), the South Korean tech giant is planning on using titanium for the Galaxy S24 series’ body. In other words, the Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+, and the Galayxy S24 Ultra model might arrive with titanium frames. For a bit of context, Apple recently unveiled the iPhone 15 series, with the higher end Pro models offering a titanium frame as well. So it appears that Samsung may also offer a similar choice for its flagship smartphone lineup.

The tipster further added that the brand could source the Titanium frames for the base model from its South Korean factory. However, Samsung might seek its partner companies to supply the titanium on the Galaxy S24+ and Galaxy S24 Ultra models. Since these devices will feature titanium, we can also expect the upcoming premium phones to be slightly lighter than their previous iterations. Apple’s move to titanium was to lower the weight of the iPhones since steel is much heavier.

But since the new Samsung phones won’t likely see a drastic change, the company might use the new titanium frames as a marketing term to sell their premium devices. It is also worth noting that Revegnus’s tweet gota reply from another reputed tipster Ice Universe. The latter claims that only the Galaxy S24 Ultra will use the titanium frame. Regardless, the Galaxy S24 lineup is expected to launch in early 2024, so stick around for more updates.
