The wait is finally over – Samsung has officially set a date for the launch of the Galaxy S24 series. The Unpacked event will take place on January 17, where we will see the introduction of Galaxy AI.
The event will start at 10 AM Pacific Time, which is 1 PM Eastern, 6 PM in London, 7 PM CET and 11:30 PM in India. This means eastern countries like South Korea, China and Australia will be able to watch the live stream as early as January 18.
The Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+, and Galaxy S24 Ultra will retain the overall design and footprint of their predecessors. The company’s biggest change is the new One UI 6.1, infused with Samsung’s generative AI that will bring better night mode photos, live translation during calls, and some software and hardware optimizations.
The phones have been completely leaked, but the most interesting part is that they are not getting expensive. In contrast, the S24 and S24+ will be cheaper in Europe, and this change may reflect costs in the US as well.
Specs-wise, the S24 and S24+ will have the Exynos 2400 chipset, while the S24 Ultra will have the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for the Galaxy. Reports suggest that all three phones will get Qualcomm chipsets in the US and Canada, and we’ll know for sure in two weeks.
