Samsung Galaxy S24 is again in the exam hall as DxOMark tests its camera and audio sector, which is one of the few survivors among the pressed Android flagships. 

It is sad to know that the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+ phones in a few regions, such as Europe, do not have any performance upgrades as compared to their predecessors. This may be because both of them use the same Exynos chips as before. The Korean giants have attached Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor to the Galaxy S24 Ultra, whereas the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+ are powered by the Snapdragon processor only in certain regions

Recently, DxOMark tested the camera quality and audio quality of the base variant of the of the Galaxy S24. So to make things clearer, here we are mentioning the detailed key specs of the camera and audio of the Galaxy S24.
