Samsung has announced that it will launch a new version of its Galaxy S24 smartphone in India. The upcoming variant will be equipped with a customised Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Galaxy chipset. The original S24 model, which was released in India last year, came with the Exynos 2400 chipset, while the Snapdragon version was available only in select global markets. However, the South Korean smartphone maker has not specified an exact launch date for this variant; it has confirmed that the new variant will be released before the festive season. The phone is listed on Flipkart as part of its upcoming Big Billion Days sale, which starts on September 23, indicating that the launch will likely occur around that time.
