One of the big questions we’re asking about the upcomingSamsung Galaxy S24 Ultrais whether or notSamsungwill break with tradition and give the flagship a flat-edged screen. Well, according to the latest leak: not quite.
As per@RoderSuperon X (the social platform previously known as Twitter), viaSamMobile, the S24 Ultra screen isn’t completely flat. Apparently, there’s a 0.3-0.4mm curve on the bezels, so just a hint of curvature.
This follows on fromleaked imageswe saw earlier this week, suggesting that Samsung had indeed opted for a flat display. In the last few years, the Ultra models have come with curved edges, which has an effect on aesthetics, repairability, and the feel of the phones.
The tipster goes on to say that while the left and right bezels on the S24 Ultra are the same size as those on theSamsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, the top and bottom bezels on the new phone will be half as thick as they are on the current edition.

The rumors so far
It would seem then that the screen bezels on the S24 Ultra are going to be less curved than previously, but not completely flat. We’vealso heardthat it’s going to follow theiPhone 15 Proin introducing a stronger titanium frame around the edges.
In terms of cameras,the rumor isthat a 200MP main, 12MP ultrawide, 10MP telephoto (with 3x optical zoom), and 48MP telephoto (with 5x optical zoom) will be fitted on the back. That would be a significant upgrade in telephoto terms.
And the leaks we’ve come across aren’t just restricted to hardware:the discovery of codehidden in the Instagram for Android app points to the Galaxy S24 phones having some kind of exclusive Instagram launch feature.
