The rumor mill surrounding the Galaxy S24 series is in full swing, and it is safe to say that the Galaxy S24 Ultra is the one that will be receiving the most amount of upgrades. We recently heard about how the new flagship will bring a titanium frame, and yesterday, we heard that the phone could have a flat display instead of a curved one. The latest rumor that we are hearing is even crazier than the last two and pertains to the screen on Samsung's latest and greatest.
The Galaxy S24 Ultra with 2,800 peak brightness sounds crazy, but users would want more than just numbers to be satisfied
Based on a conversation between Ice Universe and Hyacokr Itnyang, who appears to be in possession of a test unit, the Galaxy S24 Ultra's screen can reach as high as 2,800 nits of peak brightness. This is unbelievable considering how nothing in the market, at least at the time of writing, can go as bright as Samsung's future flagship, and while I would highly suggest that you take this with a grain of salt, the chances are there.
I have a test device that supports 2800 nits

Now, the reason why it is entirely possible is that it is Samsung we are talking about. Apple claims that the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max can reach 2,000 nits peak brightness outdoors, Whereas the Galaxy S23 Ultra can reach 1,750 nits. If the rumor is true, the Galaxy S24 Ultra will hit 2,800, and I don't think you would need a display that bright. Now, it does raise concerns about how it will impact the battery but don't worry, as Samsung Display is known to make sure that the panels are incredibly efficient while being top-tier in performance.
The reason why I suggest that this should be taken with a grain of salt is that the Galaxy S24 Ultra is still a little far from going official, and considering how we are looking at test units, things can change, and Samsung could opt for a lesser bright display. Now, if that does happen, there's nothing wrong. You see, even at 1,750 nits and 2,000 nits, the difference is not that easy to spot, at least not with the naked eye, and considering how nits don't scale 100%, you likely won't notice much difference by going above 2,000 nits.
The Galaxy S24 series should be going official in the first quarter of 2024 and will contain a number of improvements. In the coming months, you can expect a heap of leaks surrounding the devices, and be sure to keep checking as we will be providing full coverage on everything that we find out about Samsung's upcoming flagships.
