The front houses a 12-megapixel selfie shooter. Leveraging Galaxy AI, Samsung aims to deliver a significant improvement in image and video quality.
Connectivity-wise, the Galaxy S24 Ultra introduces Wi-Fi 7 to the mainstream, complemented by Bluetooth 5.3 and other modern communication features. The smartphone includes an under-display ultrasonic fingerprint reader, UWB support, satellite support, and USB Type-C 3.2 for charging.
