All around the world, the smartphone market has been extremely active, with many tech giants launching new models. The second half of 2024 is expected to be significant for many tech enthusiasts, as many big brands will be introducing their flagship products. As most smartphone makers will be focusing on their usual timeline in the second half of 2024, here’s a look at some of the highly anticipated launches of smartphones:
Google Pixel 9 And Pixel 9 Pro
Google has done the unusual by sharing the launch teaser for the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro in the market for August this year. In fact, we can also hint at an August 13 launch event where the Pixel 9 series will be unveiled. As per the leaked images, the latest versions of the Pixel series are expected to have improved performance, better cameras, and a refreshed design, making the frame fully flat in place of the edge-to-edge visor look. It is also anticipated that the smartphone will be powered by a Tensor G4 processor.
Apple iPhone 16 And 16 Pro
Another major launch that is expected to come out this year is the Apple iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro. We anticipate that the iPhones will have hardware and software updates and will run on the latest iOS 18 version with AI features baked inside. One of the highlights of this new lineup is that the Pro versions will have Apple Intelligence, combining on-device and private-cloud AI technologies. They are expected to be launched during Apple’s September event.
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6, Z Fold 6
Samsung is going to launch the late versions of the Z Flip and Z Fold series next month itself on July 10. The Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Z Fold 6 are expected to be thinner, lighter, and more durable. The company has focused on developing smartphones with the latest technologies in order to maintain its hold in the foldable smartphone segment. The smartphones are also expected to run on OneUI 6.1 with Galaxy AI capabilities.
Motorola Razr and Razr Ultra
Motorola is all set to compete with Samsung in the Flip phones market with the Razr and Razr Plus. The flip phones have already made their debut in China recently and their global unveiling is likely to happen in the next few months.
