Samsung Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+, Galaxy S24 Ultra Renders, Full Specifications Leak Online

Samsung is gearing up to launch the next generation of Galaxy S series smartphones early next year. A series of leaks have already shed light on the features of the flagship smartphones ahead of the rumoured launch on January 17. Most recently, renders of the Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+, and Galaxy S24 Ultra have leaked online along with their full specifications. Both Galaxy S24+ and Galaxy S24 Ultra are said to run on Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, paired with 12GB of RAM. The Galaxy S24, in contrast, is tipped to be powered by an Exynos 2400 chipset. The Galaxy S24 Ultra is expected to have a Titanium frame while the vanilla and Plus models could have an aluminium armour frame.

Windows Report has leaked alleged renders and full specifications of the upcoming Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+, and Galaxy S24 Ultra in a new report. The leaked renders also suggest the Galaxy S24 series colour options. The handsets are seen in black, gray, violet, and yellow shades with a hole punch display design and minimal bezels. The Galaxy S24 Ultra is seen with a flat back panel and a flat display with integrated S Pen. It appears to have a quad camera setup on the rear with all four cameras housed inside separate rings. The Galaxy S24 and the Galaxy S24+ are shown with triple rear cameras. The images indicate a similar design language to that of the Galaxy S23 series.

The Galaxy S24 Ultra will be reportedly available in titanium black, titanium gray, titanium violet, and titanium yellow colour options, whereas the colour versions of Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+ could be called onyx black, marble grey, cobalt violet, and amber yellow.

It might include a 12-megapixel selfie shooter.

The Galaxy S24 Ultra could be backed by a 5,000mAh battery with support for super fast charging 2.0 and fast wireless charging 2.0. It is also said to come with Wireless PowerShare for charging other devices that have wireless charging support. The handset could offer Bluetooth 5.3, Wi-Fi 7, and Ultra Wide Band connectivity.

The regular model is expected to run on an Exynos 2400 SoC paired with 8GB of RAM, while the Galaxy S24+ could pack a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC alongside 12GB of RAM. The regular model is said to debut in 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB storage options, while the Plus model could be offered in 256GB and 512GB storage storage variants.

As per the report, both handsets will carry a triple rear camera setup, comprising a 50-megapixel primary wide-angle sensor, a 10-megapixel telephoto sensor, and a 12-megapixel ultra-wide camera.

Samsung is expected to employ AI-based technologies in the Galaxy S24 series. It might include the ability to translate messages in real time with support for over a dozen languages. The AI could also assist in editing images and searching.

GTA 6 Trailer Coming This Tuesday, Rockstar Games Confirms

Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer release date is finally upon us, as confirmed by Rockstar Games via a tweet. The first footage from the highly-anticipated crime odyssey sequel will be out on Tuesday, December 5, at 7:30pm IST in India/ 9am ET in the US, with the publisher only posting an image of a sunset and palm tree silhouettes — confirming previous claims that it's set in a fictionalised version of Miami, which franchise veterans might recognise as a return to Vice City. With that, it is clear that Geoff Keighley won't be presenting the trailer at The Game Awards 2023, though a teaser or some screenshot drops are always possible.

Not much was known about GTA 6 since a massive data leak from mid-2022, which revealed in-development gameplay of our lead crime couple — allegedly Jason and Lucia — robbing a diner in broad daylight. Yep, this would mark the first female protagonist in the franchise's controversial history, which has, for the most part, portrayed women as sex objects or nagging moms/wives. It is also worth mentioning that Rockstar hasn't revealed an official title for the game yet, merely referring to it as the ‘next Grand Theft Auto,' so it could very well be a spin-off with some outlandish subtitle. The sequel has been a long time coming, with a May earnings call at Rockstar parent Take-Two Interactive hinting that the GTA 6 launch window could be set for the fiscal year 2025 (opens in April 2024 in Rockstar's case).

Earlier this month, the studio also scrapped the ‘Social Club' branding from the website, referring to its online multiplayer service as ‘Rockstar Games platform,' in addition to getting rid of the yellow block in its logo — hinting at some big changes to usher in the new era. At the time of writing, the studio has deleted all previous posts from its Instagram account, maintaining only the aforementioned trailer release date banner. As anticipation for GTA 6 grew, GTA Online served as the decade-long cash cow for Rockstar, delivering near-endless multiplayer content that easily rivalled the average AAA live service game. For now, it's unclear whether the existing Social Club members will simply be updated to cater to the new entry or if players will be forced to migrate their data to a new account.

As of October, the 2013-released Grand Theft Auto V has sold 190 million copies worldwide, with minor graphical and performance upgrades to adjust to two whole console generations. Just yesterday, Rockstar confirmed that its remastered Grand Theft Auto trilogy will be available to play on Netflix from December 14 onwards — accessible to subscribers of all tiers and playable exclusively on Android, iOS, and the Netflix phone app.

Grand Theft Auto 6 will probably release on the current-gen PS5 and Xbox Series S/X first, before heading to PC — as seen with previous Rockstar entries.
