The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra does not support infrared remote control functionality, a clear design change by Samsung in this model. The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra lacks a traditional infrared transmitter, therefore it cannot directly control home appliances (such as televisions and air conditioners) via infrared signals.

However, the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra supports NFC, which can be used for mobile payments, device pairing, and other scenarios, making up for some of the short-range connectivity needs. The phone also supports Bluetooth, allowing control of Bluetooth-enabled home appliances via direct pairing. Appliance control can also be achieved indirectly by connecting to Samsung or third-party smart home systems (such as Bixby and Google Home).
The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is expected to feature a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy processor, a QHD+ display, a titanium frame, a 5000mAh battery with 45W charging support, and a 200MP + 12MP + 50MP + 10MP dual-lens camera.
