Traditionally, Samsung releases its new flagship smartphones at the beginning of the year, including in 2024. This year the Samsung Galaxy S24 series is coming up. What memory variants are the devices available in and can you equip the Samsung Galaxy S24 with a memory card?
The Samsung Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+ and S24 Ultra will be officially presented at an Unpacked event in mid-January. Even before the presentation, there are leaks, rumors and news about technical details such as the storage sizes.
Samsung Galaxy S24: These storage sizes are available
As with the previous models, the Galaxy S24 and the other representatives of the new generation will also be available in different memory versions:
Samsung Galaxy S24
Galaxy S24 Plus
Galaxy S24 Ultra
128 GB ✓ ✘ ✘ 256 GB ✓ ✓ ✓ 512 GB ✘ ✓ ✓ 1 TB ✘ ✘ ✓
The information is based on unofficial leaks and rumors.
It could be that Samsung will show other variants when it is presented in mid-January or that some versions are not intended for the European market and therefore will not be available in Germany (that’s how much they could cost). The largest model, the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra with 1 terabyte of storage capacity, could be available exclusively in Samsung’s online shop and not at other points of sale. Last year, the manufacturer ran a promotion in which customers received the device with double the storage capacity at no additional cost. There will probably be a similar offer this year too.
More space on the Samsung Galaxy S24 with a memory card?
In the past, the storage space of smartphones could be expanded with a memory card. The small microSD cards that found space in the SIM card slot, for example, were particularly popular. For several years now, the major smartphone manufacturers have been abandoning this option, including Samsung.
In all likelihood it will be the case with the Samsung Galaxy S24 and its sister models There is no option to expand the storage with a microSD card. You should therefore think carefully about your own storage requirements before purchasing so that you don’t reach the limits too quickly with regular use. The capacity cannot be increased subsequently, but data can be stored online in various cloud storage systems. This is what the Samsung Galaxy S24 could look like.
