Based on the rumors we’ve come across so far, it looks like the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra will bring with it the most significant upgrades when Samsung launches its next batch of flagship phones – and it looks like this covers video recordings too.
As our OnePlus 9 Pro review and Sony Xperia 1 V review will tell you, this wouldn’t be the first time 4K/120fps video recording has been seen on a smartphone – but it’s something you can’t get right now on Samsung’s flagship devices, Apple and Google.
Galaxy S24 Ultra 4K video at 120 fps December 31, 2023
Improved sensor
Samsung has already shown off some of the new video capture capabilities of its camera sensors that we expect to see in the Galaxy S24 Ultra, but this is our first inkling of a new high in terms of video quality.
While the 200MP main camera rating is not expected to change between the Galaxy S23 Ultra and Galaxy 24 Ultra, the current core sensor technology is tipped to be upgraded, allowing for faster processing.
Add to that the introduction of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, and you can see where the extra grunt required to reach 4K/120fps comes from. Just make sure you have plenty of internal storage space for the resulting video files.
We should see the Ultra version appear alongside two other Samsung Galaxy S24 models later this month, with January 17 likely being the big launch day. Other upgrades that appear to be in the pipeline include plenty of AI features.
