Samsung Galaxy S24 May Miss Out on Rumored Satellite Connectivity Feature

Team My Mobile

December 30, 2023

HIghlights

Galaxy S23 missed out on rumored satellite connectivity.
Speculation shifted to Galaxy S24 for the feature.
Recent reports indicate absence of the feature in Galaxy S24.
Apple and Huawei already implemented similar technology.

Samsung’s journey towards integrating satellite connectivity into its smartphones has been a topic of much speculation and anticipation.

Initially, strong rumors were suggesting that the Galaxy S23 series might debut with an iPhone-like satellite connectivity feature for emergencies.

However, that didn’t pan out.

The head of Samsung’s smartphone division later commented on the absence, indicating that the ecosystem for two-way satellite connectivity was not yet mature enough for implementation.

This led to speculations shifting towards the next series, the Galaxy S24.

Leaks and rumours, particularly those stemming from screenshots of the One UI 6.1 interface, hinted that Samsung might introduce two-way satellite connectivity with the Galaxy S24 series.

Despite these expectations, recent reports suggest that the Galaxy S24 may not include this sought-after feature.

A report from ETNews disclosed that in preparation for the official launch, Samsung is conducting tests on the Galaxy S24 with three major South Korean network operators: KT, LG Uplus, and SK Telecom.

Samsung Galaxy S24 May Miss Out on Rumored Satellite Connectivity Feature

These tests aim to ensure that the new device performs optimally on existing cellular networks.

Interestingly, during these tests, there was no mention or evidence of the two-way satellite connectivity feature on the Galaxy S24 models.

The absence of this feature in the Galaxy S24 is a bitter pill to swallow for fans of the South Korean electronics giant given its presence in other leading smartphones.

Apple, for instance, introduced a one-way satellite communication feature in its iPhone 14 series last year.

This function allows users to send distress signals to emergency services when out of cellular network range.

Similarly, Huawei has incorporated a comparable feature in its Mate 60 series, further demonstrating the growing trend and consumer interest in this technology among flagship smartphones.

Samsung, on the other hand, appears to be focusing on a more advanced two-way satellite communication system, which would enable users not only to send but also receive messages in areas lacking cellular connectivity.

Upcoming Samsung Galaxy S24

Now industry insiders speculate that this technology could debut in the Galaxy S25 series.

Samsung has reportedly developed its two-way satellite connectivity, potentially to be included in the Exynos 2400 chipset, but it seems this feature might not be utilized in the upcoming Galaxy S24 series.

This development might be seen as a missed opportunity for Samsung to match or even surpass its competitors in providing cutting-edge communication technology in emergency scenarios.

FAQs

What was expected regarding the satellite connectivity feature in Samsung phones?

Initially, there were strong rumors about Samsung introducing satellite connectivity in the Galaxy S23 series, similar to what is seen in Apple’s iPhones, for emergency communication. This expectation then moved to the Galaxy S24 series.

Why is the satellite connectivity feature not included in the Galaxy S24?

Recent reports, particularly from ETNews, suggest that during testing with South Korean network operators, there was no mention of satellite connectivity in the Galaxy S24. This hints at Samsung possibly delaying or skipping the feature for this series.

How does Samsung’s approach to satellite connectivity differ from Apple and Huawei?

Unlike Apple’s one-way communication and Huawei’s similar feature, Samsung is believed to be working on a more comprehensive two-way satellite communication system, allowing for both sending and receiving messages.

When can we expect Samsung to introduce satellite connectivity in its phones?

Industry insiders are now speculating that Samsung might introduce this feature in the Galaxy S25 series, possibly incorporating it into the Exynos 2400 chipset.

What are the leaked prices for the Samsung Galaxy S24 series in Europe?

According to leaks, the Galaxy S24 is expected to start at €899 for the 128GB model, while the S24 Plus might begin at €959 for the 256GB variant. The Galaxy S24 Ultra, however, could see a price rise, starting at €1,449.

How does the rumoured pricing of the Galaxy S24 series compare to its predecessors?

The leaks suggest a pricing strategy shift for Samsung in Europe, with the Galaxy S24 and S24 Plus potentially being cheaper than the previous S23 models, while the S24 Ultra could be priced higher.

What might be the reasons behind the price adjustment for the Galaxy S24 series?

The lower pricing for the S24 and S24 Plus could be Samsung’s response to market competition, while the price hike for the S24 Ultra might reflect its enhanced features, including the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC and satellite communication hardware.

What are the new colour options for the Galaxy S24 series?

The Galaxy S24 and S24+ are expected to come in unique online-exclusive colours such as orange, green, and blue, in addition to the standard black, grey, violet, and yellow.

The Galaxy S24 Ultra is rumoured to have exclusive colours like silver, light brown, and green available only on Samsung’s website.

Samsung Is Introducing a New Battery Protection Feature in the One UI 6.1 Update

Samsung Is Introducing a New Battery Protection Feature in the One UI 6.1 Update

Highlights

New Battery Protection feature in Samsung’s One UI 6.1 update.
Three battery protection modes: Basic, Adaptive, and Maximum.
Initially accessible via specialized apps like Activity Launcher.
Google also working on similar battery health features for Android.

Samsung is set to enhance the user experience for its Galaxy smartphone owners with the introduction of a “Battery Protection” feature in its forthcoming One UI 6.1 update.

This move comes as a response to the increasing consumer focus on prolonging battery lifespan and improving device performance.

As per a report from 9to5Google, the feature is expected to be a part of the Android 14 update and will likely make its first appearance with the anticipated launch of the Galaxy S24 series.

Details of this feature have surfaced through leaks, and it’s predicted that Samsung will officially reveal more information during the Galaxy S24 series launch.

The “Battery Protection” option, found in the Settings menu of the new One UI 6.1, is designed to offer users more control over their device’s charging habits to optimize battery longevity.

This feature, embedded within the One UI 6.0 (Android 14) updates, is initially hidden from users.

To access it, one needs to use specialized apps like “Activity Launcher” to launch an app “activity” named “BatteryProtectionActivity.”

The “Battery Protection” feature offers three distinct modes:

Samsung Is Introducing a New Battery Protection Feature in the One UI 6.1 Update

“Basic Protection” mode, which limits the charging capacity to a minimum of 95% instead of the full 100%.
“Adaptive Protection” mode, which pauses fast charging at 80% and then slowly completes the charge to 100%, adapting to the user’s phone usage patterns. This mode is akin to a feature on Google Pixel devices that aligns charging completion with a set alarm.
“Maximum Protection” mode, which caps the charging limit at 80%.

Currently, the feature is in a nascent stage, as reported by Tarun Vats via Twitter.

While the settings are visible and users can switch between modes, the actual impact on charging behavior is not yet active.

Presently, activating the battery protection only restricts the battery charge to a maximum of 85%, a function available since the Android 13 update.

In addition to Samsung’s developments, Google is also reportedly working on a similar feature for Android users to monitor battery health more accurately.

This update is expected to be rolled out with Android 15, building on the initial steps already taken in Android 14.
