Ice universe, a whistleblower who has been following Samsung phones for a long time, tweeted yesterday, suggesting that Samsung’s next-generation flagship phone, the Galaxy S24 Ultra, is expected to use a titanium alloy frame.
At first, he just released a periodic table of elements with the text “22” (Note: The atomic number of titanium in the periodic table is 22).
Some netizens in the comment area further asked, “Is it related to the S24 Ultra? Is it going to use a titanium alloy frame?”, ice universe gave a non-negative answer.
As for Weibo, i Bing Universe also released corresponding news: “Lu Taiwen, finally a little radical in S24 Ultra.” (Lu Taiwen, head of Samsung mobile phone business, homonym stem)
It was previously reported that Apple’s iPhone 15 Pro will launch a titanium alloy version, and technology blogger URedditor also exposed real photos.
If the above news is true, it means that Apple and Samsung will use titanium alloy frames on the next generation of flagship models after smart watches. Compared with stainless steel or aluminum alloy frames, although titanium alloy frames are not dominant in weight, they have a higher strength-to-weight ratio. Of course, it should be noted that the cost of titanium alloy is close to 10 times that of aluminum alloy, so Samsung may only try the water on the flagship model of Galaxy S24 Ultra.

According to foreign media Sammobile, Samsung may use the “Armor Aluminum” body design in the Galaxy S24 product series and introduce titanium alloy frames in subsequent flagship models.
