Galaxy S24 Ultra could avoid Exynos, unlike its siblings

A few weeks back, a rumor surfaced that Samsung is planning to ship the Galaxy S24 Ultra with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor globally. The Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+, on the other hand, were said to get the Exynos 2400 in some markets and the same Snapdragon chip in others. It appears the Korean firm has decided to go ahead with this plan. The same source recently confirmed the rumored processor split for the Galaxy S24 series.

In a new X/Twitter post, tipster Revegnus (@Tech_Reve) reiterated that the Galaxy S24 Ultra will only arrive in a single processor variant. Samsung will ship it with the overclocked, “for Galaxy” version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in all markets. The phone will come with 16GB of RAM and multiple storage options ranging from 256GB to a whopping 2TB. Samsung will equip the device with the latest M13 LTPO OLED display.

The Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+ will also get the same display. However, Samsung will offer these phones in 8GB and 12GB RAM variants only. Storage options will reportedly include 128GB, 256GB, and more. As far as the chipset is concerned, the two models will get the same Snapdragon processor in the US, China, and a few other markets. The devices will ship with the Korean firm’s in-house Exynos 2400 SoC in the rest of the world, including Europe.

Samsung’s flagship Exynos chips are making a return with the Galaxy S24

It’s worth noting that some tipsters have claimed a similar processor split for the entire Galaxy S24 lineup. So despite Revegnus’s proven track record of Samsung leaks, you should be cautious with their latest claim. But either way, the return of Exynos chips to Galaxy flagships looks certain. The company used the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 “for Galaxy” on the entire Galaxy S23 series globally. Time will tell whether Samsung’s decision to go back to Exynos backfires.

That said, the 2024 Galaxy flagships are still several months away. We should get a clearer picture regarding their chipset split and other specs closer to their launch. Rumors are that Samsung will take wraps off the Galaxy S24 lineup in January, about two weeks earlier than the Galaxy S23 launch that took place on February 1, 2023. The new flagships could be accompanied by the Galaxy Ring, the Korean firm’s first-gen smart ring. We will let you know as soon as the rumor mill churns out more information about the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy Ring.
