As anticipation continues to build around the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S24 series, fresh rumors and leaks keep pouring in, shedding light on what could be an exciting display upgrade across all three phones in the lineup.
According to the reputable source @UniverseIce (as reported by Android Authority), Samsung is setting its sights on a 2024 flagship feature that closely resembles Google’s Ultra HDR (High Dynamic Range) capabilities, introduced with the rollout of Android 14.
Ultra HDR, a novel image format developed by Google, retains the familiar .jpg file extension but introduces a game-changing element. It captures additional information within each picture, resulting in significant enhancements in brightness, contrast, and color range.
To fully harness this feature, a bit of extra processing power is essential, and a compatible display – like that found on the Google Pixel 8 – is necessary for the best experience. All signs indicate that the forthcoming Samsung Galaxy S24 phones will incorporate a similar technology.
For those who aren’t tech-savvy, the key takeaway is that photos viewed on a Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24 Plus, or Galaxy S24 Ultra are expected to appear remarkably crisper and more vibrant on the screen.
Furthermore, brighter screens are on the horizon for the Galaxy S24 series, with reports suggesting they may reach up to 2500 nits, surpassing the current range’s peak of 1750 nits. This upgrade will be instrumental in delivering photos with all the HDR information unlocked. While these images will still be visible on other phone screens, they’ll pale in comparison when it comes to vibrancy.
Despite the fact that these phones are not set to make their debut until January 2024, the tech world has been abuzz with leaks and rumors. Recent reports suggest that the handsets might support satellite connectivity, and the Plus model may receive a RAM upgrade.
Samsung itself has been teasing features expected to grace these upcoming devices, including an innovative video zoom capability, capitalizing on Samsung’s cutting-edge 200MP camera sensor and the recently unveiled Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip. All in all, the Samsung Galaxy S24 series promises a visual revolution, setting a new standard for smartphone display quality in 2024.
