Galaxy S24 might launch earlier, Unpacked event could be held in the US

The Galaxy S24 series could be launched in January 2024, according to some reports. The Galaxy Unpacked 2024 event is expected to be held in San Francisco, USA. Usually, Samsung holds Galaxy S launch events in San Francisco and Galaxy Z launch events in New York. However, for the Galaxy Z Flip 5 and the Galaxy Z Fold 5, Samsung held its Galaxy Unpacked launch event in Seoul, South Korea, but that was due to South Korea's focus on the bid to hold the World Expo 2030.

Leaked Galaxy S24, S24+, S24 Ultra specifications

Several reports claim that Samsung will bring back Exynos chips to its high-end phones with the Galaxy S24.

The Galaxy S24 and the Galaxy S24+ could have a 50MP primary rear camera, a 12MP ultrawide camera, a 10MP telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom, and a 12MP selfie camera. The Galaxy S24 Ultra could have a 200MP primary rear camera, a 12MP ultrawide camera, a 10MP telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom, a 50MP telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom, and a 12MP selfie camera.

The Galaxy S24 could have a 4,000mAh battery, while the Galaxy S24+ could have a 4,900mAh battery.
