Samsung Galaxy S24 128GB Version Will Use UFS 3.1 Flash Memory For Cost Savings

Korean whistleblower Yeux1122 recently obtained information from a parts manufacturer, revealing that Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S24 series will feature different memory configurations. Specifically, the 128GB model of the Samsung Galaxy S24 will incorporate UFS 3.1 flash memory. However, other versions will boast the more advanced UFS 4.0 flash memory.

Furthermore, Samsung’s decision to equip the 128GB Galaxy S24 with UFS 3.1 flash memory stems from a cost-saving strategy. Analysts concur that this move is Samsung’s approach to managing expenses. Additionally, Samsung aims to prevent a price hike for the Galaxy S24 series, a response to escalating component costs.

UFS 4.0 offers a significant performance boost over UFS 3.1. Notably, its sequential reading speed is double, and its writing speed more than doubles that of UFS 3.1. Moreover, UFS 4.0 reduces power consumption by 46%. For users, this translates into quicker app and game loading times, more efficient file saving, and enhanced performance in memory-demanding applications.

While many flagship smartphones, such as the OnePlus 11, have adopted UFS 4.0, others like the Pixel 8 continue to use UFS 3.1. Although UFS 3.1 still holds relevance in current applications, and its performance difference is barely noticeable to most users, UFS 4.0 undoubtedly represents a more future-proof choice.

The leak also suggests that the standard Galaxy S24 will come with 8GB RAM, with the Plus and Ultra versions featuring 12GB RAM. There is, however, a slight chance that the standard model may offer a 12GB RAM variant in certain regions.

Samsung is set to unveil the Galaxy S24 series at a launch event on January 17 next year, promising to clarify all speculations and queries.
