Galaxy S24 Ultra: A Sleeker, More Refined Design
We still have a few months to go before Samsung officially reveals the Galaxy S24 Ultra, their highly anticipated new flagship smartphone. However, there are already rumors and leaks on the internet about what its main features might be.
A few days ago, the CAD-based renderings of the Galaxy S24 Ultra were reportedly shown off. A detailed design of the device is now surfacing online; all credit goes to the 8K resolution of the image, but some points are still unclear. The CAD render concept for the Galaxy S24 Ultra was designed under the partnership of @technizoconcept and @RoderSuper. The released images of the Galaxy S24 Ultra seem to be quite a replica of the Galaxy S23 Ultra, its predecessor. One of the distinguishing features of the S3 Ultra is the presence of titanium material in place of the metal frame. The gadget seems to equip a quadra camera system, which will include a telephoto camera and periscope-style lens.
Other than this, the S Pen’s top and bottoms have a less round design, and it seems the S Pen has the same color as the smartphone. In the published pictures of the S24 Ultra, the titanium frame looks to have a brushed metal appearance. The phone features a flat screen with very few curved edges where the glass joins the metal frame. The new coin slot-designed loud speaker comes into play in place of the grill-like loudspeaker. There are also speculations that the Galaxy S24 Ultra will be lighter than the Galaxy S23 Ultra. The gadget is anticipated to debut in early January 2024.

Circle to Search, or you can call it in your so-cold language. Circle and Search both refer to a facility that lets you search anything directly from the screen by just circling text or image. Let’s count the smartphone devices that support Google Circle and Search right now.
The Circle to Search by Google feature gained its fandom after Samsung introduced it on the Galaxy S24 series as a part of Galaxy AI. Later, Google introduced over the last few weeks the Circle and Search feature along with the support of Google Lens, which lets you integrate Google search in a completely new way as compared to previous times.
Circle to Search is a Google AI tool that permits users to search for queries on their smartphones using gestures such as circling or tapping without even switching between the apps. The major fact about this novelty is that it prevents wasting time switching between two apps just to search for something. Google and Samsung have already made this convenient novelty available on their smartphones. Check out the list mentioned below:
Google Pixel Device list that supports Circle and Search
- Pixel 6a
- Pixel 6
- Pixel 6 Pro
- Pixel 7a
- Pixel 7
- Pixel 7 Pro
- Pixel 8a

- Pixel 8 Pro
- Pixel Fold

Samsung is busily setting up to expand the Galaxy foldable series by debuting a sixth-generation foldable, the Galaxy Z Fold 6, which is expected to arrive with a wider outer display with sharper corners.
Fans are awaiting the forthcoming Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 foldable phones, and leaks and rumors are increasing their curiosity among them. Now, recent leaks have revealed that this time Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 6’s wider outer display could ditch rounded corners.
Usually, the Galaxy Z Fold series follows the same basic design language of a super narrow and tall outer display that unfolds into a large, almost square inner display. The size ratio has changed slightly over time, but the fact is that it’s thinner as compared to the rest of the foldables on the market.
Finally, it appears that Samsung could come up with a new design idea for the forthcoming Galaxy Z Fold 6.
A reliable tipster on X is reporting that the external screen of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 is 60.2mm, whereas its predecessor series, the Galaxy Z Fold 5,’s external display is 57.4mm. If this report comes, then you will get a wider external screen, which will surely enhance the experience, but not too wide.
The corners of the display also seem to be markedly sharper. This time, they are not rounded, as was the design in previous generations. Samsung is expected to debut the sixth-generation foldables, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6, and maybe the Galaxy Z Fold 6 FE, at the Galaxy Unpacked event, which is supposed to be held on July 10th in Paris.

The Samsung Galaxy S25 series is next in line to expand the flagship S series, is supposed to be scheduled for early 2025, and is expected to be powered by the in-house Exynos in the Galaxy S25 Ultra model as well.
Samsung usually announces its latest S series smartphone early in the first quarter of the year; for instance, the Galaxy S24 debuted in January this year and the Galaxy S23 debuted in February 2023. According to these schedules, the Galaxy S25 is expected to debut sometime between January and February.
Now the reports are unveiling that this time Samsung could ditch the Snapdragon chipset for its in-house Exynos 2500 to power the Galaxy S25 Ultra model. This is being reported by a tipster on X by sharing a post. He mentioned that internally at Samsung, it’s determined that the Exynos 2500 does not hang back behind the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 in all prospects, such as quality.
Meanwhile, it’s not clear yet whether this is because the Nuvia cores of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 are not good, making the Exynos 2500 relatively better, or if the Exynos 2500 itself is better.
From the two-generation Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S24, Samsung relies on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon chipset for the Ultra variant, but now it appears that Samsung could use the Exynos 2500 chipset for the forthcoming Galaxy S25 Ultra smartphone. However, Samsung has not officially unveiled anything regarding this report yet.
