The switch to a titanium alloy frame presents certain considerations. The use of an alloy, rather than pure titanium, impacts both weight and strength characteristics. Other alterations to the phone’s design and components could further influence its overall weight.
The primary benefits of adopting titanium in smartphone construction are improved strength, reduced weight, or a combination of both. Given the negligible weight difference between the Galaxy S24 Ultra and its predecessor, it’s reasonable to assume that Samsung’s focus lies in harnessing the strength advantages offered by the titanium alloy frame.
