Last month we got new foldables, tablets, and smartwatches fromSamsung, but we’ll have to wait until early 2024 for theSamsung Galaxy S24flagship phones – and the Ultra model is rumored to be getting a significant display upgrade.

According to prolific tipster@UniverseIce, the screen on the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra screen will measure 6.78 inches in size, have a 3120 x 1440 pixel resolution and 19.5:5 aspect ratio, and offer an incredible 2500 nits of peak brightness.

It’s that brightness spec that really stands out, considering theSamsung Galaxy S23 Ultratopped out at 1750 nits. It’s a boost of more than 40% from the previous generation, and would make the Galaxy S24 Ultra as bright as theOppo Find X6 Proand just behind the Xiaomi 13 Ultra.

SamMobilespeculates that the new panel could bethe rumored M13 screenfrom Samsung Display, though we’ll have to wait until launch day (most likely in January or February) to be sure about the specs for the Galaxy S24 series.

All about the Ultra

As has been the case in recent times, there’s been more buzz around the Ultra model than the other two models in the upcoming Galaxy flagship series – even before we heard it was going to get the brightest screen yet on a Samsung handset.

It’s rumored that the frame of the Ultra model will bemade from titanium, for example – tougher and lighter than the aluminum used in the current models. As it happens, theiPhone 15 Proand the iPhone 15 Pro Max are expected to switch to titanium too.

The camera system on the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is in linefor a substantial upgradetoo, with the 10MP telephoto lens on the S23 Ultra becoming a 50MP telephoto lens on the new model. We’re also hearingabout a flatter displayfor the S24 Ultra phone as well.
