The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, particularly in its Indian variant with a sleek Titanium Gray finish, has introduced several impressive AI features that set it apart as a flagship device. Among these features is the Circle to Search functionality, allowing users to easily locate items or translate text by circling them on the screen. The AI Live Translate in calls, although currently supporting mainly Hindi among Indian regional languages, proves to be exceptionally useful for real-time language translation during conversations.
The AI capabilities extend to the gallery app, where the phone can enhance videos by converting them into 120 FPS slow-motion with added frames. Additionally, the generative AI in the gallery allows for remarkable editing, such as moving subjects within photos and even rotating images with the AI filling in missing details seamlessly. The AI integration spans across various applications, from the wallpaper customization to a new photo ambient wallpaper that changes based on time and weather.
The design of the S24 Ultra showcases a premium Titanium Gray finish, maintaining the aesthetic appeal of its predecessor. Noteworthy design changes include the elimination of the curved display in favor of a flat one with narrower bezels. The display itself receives upgrades, featuring Samsung's premium Dynamic AMOLED 2x with a 120Hz LTPO refresh rate, increased brightness at 2600 nits, and Gorilla Glass Armor that boasts 50% more resistance to scratches and impacts while reducing glare and reflections by 75%.
The device retains essential flagship features such as the S Pen, in-display fingerprint scanner, stereo speakers, IP68 rating, and wireless charging. Under the hood, the S24 Ultra is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, delivering excellent performance in both benchmarks and day-to-day usage. The phone runs on the new One UI 6.1 update on Android 14, showcasing features like lock screen widgets and battery protection.
In terms of cameras, the S24 Ultra boasts a 200MP main camera, a 10MP periscope telephoto lens with 5x optical zoom, a 12MP ultra-wide lens, and additional upgrades for versatile photography options. The video capabilities include 8K at 30 FPS support and the ability to zoom up to 5x while recording. The 5,000mAh battery, coupled with the efficiency of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, promises improved battery life.
