Samsung is gearing up to introduce its next flagship, the Galaxy S24 series, possibly as early as January. The one catching most eyes is, unsurprisingly, the Galaxy S24 Ultra. But it’s not just the launch that’s creating a buzz; it’s the bunch of changes that the device is expected to launch with. As per a recent leak by renowned tipster Ice Universe, the device will come with a long, strip-like design for the bottom speaker.

Let’s talk about that later. Another key update that’s got everyone talking is the camera. Rumors hint at an impressive 200MP sensor for the primary rear camera. While that’s an exciting prospect for photo enthusiasts, there’s a twist. Samsung might be dialing back on its optical zoom capabilities. The Galaxy S24 Ultra’s periscope lens is expected to offer a 5x optical zoom, a reduction from the previous 10x. This decision mirrors Apple‘s approach with its iPhone 15 Pro Max.
However, the camera isn’t the only area Samsung is tinkering with. A notable design refresh is on the cards. While the Galaxy S23 Ultra sported a speaker opening with six “pill-shaped” holes, the new Galaxy S24 Ultra might flaunt a “long strip design.” This intel comes from the well-known tipster, Ice Universe. But change isn’t always welcome. Some fans are skeptical. One user recalled older models like the Galaxy S9, commenting that the strip design seemed “less premium.” Either way, leaked information should always be considered with a grain of salt. Let’s wait to see what Samsung has to offer with its upcoming flagship.
