Samsung Galaxy S24,S24+ will be cheaper in EU; North America really arrives with SD8 Gen 3

Samsung is expected to introduce the Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+ and Galaxy S24 Ultra on January 17 with a similar design but improved chipset performance, according to rumors revealed earlier this month.

The latest report from the Netherlands revealed that the S24 and S24+ will be slightly cheaper. At the same time, a supposedly leaked spec sheet suggests that the two non-Ultra flagships will ship with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 only in the US and Canada, all other markets will get the Exynos 2400 treatment.

The image above may be a presentation slide prepared by Samsung’s marketing department for vendors handling the devices; it could very well have been fabricated by a well-wishing fan who simply packed all the existing leaks into a single image and gave it a Samsung font for a legitimate look.

Coming back to pricing, the Galaxy S24 and S24+ may be a little cheaper than the S23’s price at launch, but the Ultra’s price will remain relatively the same. There may be slight deviations from one EU country to another, depending on exchange rates, local regulations and sales campaigns.

Next month’s Galaxy Unpacked event is also expected to be the landing point for One UI 6.1. The interface should be ready to use with the Galaxy S24 trio, with AI features for battery protection and clearer calls with real-life transcriptions.
