Upcoming Unpacked Event Scheduled for January 17th, 2024 Notably, this is one of the earliest announcements for the Galaxy S series in recent history, as MWC or around the first week of February is when the company usually holds its events.

The invitation itself is a nod to technological advancement, hinting at the debut of a new AI feature with the tagline "Galaxy AI is Coming." This suggests a significant leap in AI capabilities, potentially revolutionizing Samsung's existing Bixby framework and offering a glimpse into the future of smartphone intelligence. Galaxy S24 Series: A Closer Look Galaxy S24 Series: A Closer Look As the tech world buzzes with anticipation, several details about the Galaxy S24 series have surfaced: Pre-Booking and Availability: Enthusiasts can start pre-booking their preferred model from January 30th, indicating a swift rollout following the launch. Pricing Strategy: In a surprising move, the Galaxy S24 and S24 Plus are rumoured to be priced lower in the EU than their predecessors, potentially starting at €899 for the 128GB model and €959 for the 256GB variant. However, the Galaxy S24 Ultra might see a price increase, speculated to begin at €1,449. Display Innovations: The standard Galaxy S24 is expected to feature a 6.17-inch AMOLED LTPO display with a 120Hz refresh rate, while the S24 Plus could boast a larger 6.7-inch screen. These displays promise not only enhanced visual clarity but also energy efficiency. Processor and Performance: At the heart of these devices will be the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Made for Galaxy processor, ensuring top-tier performance. Certain markets may also receive an Exynos 2400 SoC variant. Camera Capabilities: The S24 series aims to set a new standard in mobile photography. With a 50MP main sensor, a 12MP ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 10MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom, the phones are designed to capture stunning images. The S24 Ultra is poised to take this further with a 200 MP primary sensor and a 50MP periscope lens offering 5x optical zoom. Despite these advancements, Samsung appears to be holding off on integrating satellite communication capabilities into the Galaxy S24 series, a feature now common in Apple and Huawei models. This might be a strategic choice, reserving such a significant addition for future models like the Galaxy S25. Samsung Sends Out Official Invites for Galaxy S24 Series Launch Set For 17th January Apart from just the phones, Samsung is also expected to reveal its new Galaxy Watch 7 Series, new Galaxy Buds, and perhaps some a new Galaxy Tab.
