Description:
Samsung reportedly isn't upgrading the RAM much in the Galaxy S24 line, but 
that might also mean no price hike.

FULL STORY
======================================================================

The Samsung Galaxy S24 series  including the Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus and 
Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra  are sure to be high-end phones, but they might not 
be quite as high-end as wed hoped, even in the case of the flagship Ultra 
model. 

This could be mostly due to the RAM amounts, which according to leaker 
@UniverseIce will be 8GB in the case of the standard Samsung Galaxy S24, with 
both 8GB and 12GB models of the Galaxy S24 Plus and Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra 
rumored. 

For reference, the Samsung Galaxy S23 and Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra have the 
same RAM amounts as are rumored for their successors, while the Galaxy S23 
Plus only comes in an 8GB configuration, so there might be an upgrade in the 
case of the S24 Plus. S248GBS24+8GB12GBS24 Ultra8GB12GB16GB does not exist.

But that would still mean theres no upgrade to the RAM amounts for two of 
Samsungs upcoming S-series phones, and 8GB for a high-end handset like the 
Samsung Galaxy S24 seems rather low by 2023 standards, let alone 2024, when 
the phone will launch. 

This is also lower than wed previously heard rumored, with earlier reports 
suggesting there might be a 12GB model of the Samsung Galaxy S24 , and that 
the Galaxy S24 Ultra could come with up to 16GB of RAM. 

We would therefore take this latest leak with a pinch of salt, but it comes 
from a credible source, and it's been backed up by leaker yeux1122 , writing 
on Naver, a South Korean blogging platform. Less RAM means a lower price 

They claim that Samsung had tested the Galaxy S24 line with more RAM 
(explaining the earlier leaks) but that some specifications  and in 
particular the RAM  have ultimately been compromised in order to keep pricing 
similar to this years models. 

So the one piece of good news amongst all this is that the Samsung Galaxy S24 
line might not cost more than the S23 series. 

That would mean a starting price of around $799.99 / 849 / AU$1,349 for the 
Galaxy S24, $999.99/ 1,049 / AU$1,649 for the Galaxy S24 Plus, and $1,199.99 
/ 1,249 / AU$1,949 for the Galaxy S24 Ultra, although were not sure why 
Samsung couldnt at least give buyers the choice of more RAM if they want it. 

This still might be wrong though; well likely find out for sure on January 
17, as thats reportedly when these new best Samsung phone contenders will 
launch. You might also like The Samsung Galaxy S24 could be its first 'AI
