We are on the cusp of the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S23 series and we are already hearing a report revolving around the Galaxy S24 series. As per The Elect, Samsung plans to reduce the number of Galaxy S24 models from three to two. Rather than having a vanilla, Plus and Ultra model, the S24 could only be available in vanilla and Ultra, ditching the Plus variant.
Galaxy S22, S22+ and S22 Ultra
According to the report, the Galaxy S24 is referred to as “DM” internally at Samsung. Two designs were identified: DM1 and DM3, but a “DM2” was missing and it is speculated that DM1 and DM3 may refer to the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24 Ultra respectively.
The skeptical side of the coin is that Samsung could reintroduce the mention of a ‘DM2’ leading up to the initial production of the S24 range. Given how early in the development of a device it is to succeed a range that isn’t on the market yet, this could go either way. It’s even possible for Samsung to see how the market performs ahead of next year’s Galaxy S range and decide on development afterward.

It has been reported that Samsung is also reconsidering the number of models in the Galaxy A series. Specifically, Samsung may keep the A1, A3 and A5, but it is “likely” to drop the A2.
Samsung’s Galaxy Unpacked event is scheduled for February 1 in San Francisco, where it will announce the Galaxy S23 range. Three models are expected: Galaxy S23, S23+ and S23 Ultra with the latter model featuring a 200MP camera. Samsung may also announce laptops at the same event.
