In the world of high-end smartphones, durability, and premium materials are often as crucial as the tech within.
Samsung is reportedly stepping up its game by considering the use of titanium for the Galaxy S24 Ultra’s frame, a move that would set a new standard for the company’s flagship devices.
If the transition to titanium is well-received, it could herald a new era of Samsung smartphones boasting the robust material.
As per the report, the shift to titanium, known for its strength and lightweight properties, would mark the Galaxy S24 Ultra as the pioneer in Samsung’s lineup, ushering in an exceptional build quality that could extend to other models based on consumer feedback and production efficiency.
The cost implications of adopting titanium frames are significant, with current aluminum frames being relatively economical at under $20.
Titanium, on the other hand, could quintuple these costs if manufacturing yields are low.
Samsung’s aim for high initial production figures, matching the distribution of its Galaxy S23 Ultra models, signals a confident stride towards incorporating titanium in its premium offering.
The Galaxy S24 Ultra is anticipated to retain its sleek flat-screen design, complemented by the proposed titanium frame.
The combination of titanium on the outside and aluminum internally would not only enhance durability but also align Samsung with the build practices seen in competitors’ high-tier models, like the latest iPhones.
By potentially integrating titanium into the Galaxy S24 Ultra’s design, Samsung is poised to offer a device that could redefine luxury in the Android smartphone market, marrying advanced technology with materials that promise both resilience and elegance.

The titanium frame would be a pioneering feature for Samsung, offering unparalleled strength and lightweight appeal compared to the current aluminum frames. This premium material is anticipated to enhance the device’s durability while maintaining a sleek design.
If Samsung transitions to titanium, the frame cost could potentially increase by up to five times due to the higher price of titanium and production yield challenges. However, the final impact on the retail price will depend on Samsung’s ability to manage these production costs effectively.
Samsung has reportedly set a target to manufacture 15 million titanium frames, which aligns with the number of Galaxy S23 Ultra units shipped. This suggests a dedicated implementation of titanium frames for the Galaxy S24 Ultra, indicating the model’s exclusive and premium status.
While the outer frame of the S24 Ultra is rumored to be titanium, the inner frame is expected to remain aluminum. This design choice mirrors the construction seen in certain premium iPhone models, balancing durability with cost-effectiveness.
