Samsung has announced the Galaxy S24 series. The devices, of course, are an improvement of the already great S23 lineup released in 2023. A lot of new features have been packed into these phones, but the most prominent one is Galaxy AI, which can be experienced across multiple apps including the camera and gallery. They are also powered by new chipsets; the S24 Ultra will exclusively feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 by Qualcomm. The S24 and S24+ will feature the same chipset for US and Chinese customers. However, other parts of the world will be served by the Exynos 2400.
