Samsung may introduce a new “combined coil antenna” cooling solution to improve the cooling and stability of several features.
The Galaxy S23 series has already had an upgraded cooling solution. Samsung appears to be testing a new system called “hybrid coiled antenna” for the Galaxy S24 series, though.
The new solution is not only said to be better than the copper plates and vapor chambers commonly used by many phone models today but can also improve the reliability of several features present on phone models. high-class.
Not surprisingly, the new solution is very expensive. In addition, if Chinese Android phone companies use this technology, they may have to give up super-fast charging capabilities.
Designing a cooling solution for a compact device like a phone is an extremely difficult challenge. RGcloudS posted a detailed article on X, stating that the current cooling solution (copper plate + vapor chamber) may affect features like wireless charging. Maybe this is one of the reasons why they only appear on high-end phone models.
The source also said that the combined coil antenna has a high cost. If implemented properly, though, the new system could make wireless features work more reliably, not just wireless charging but also UWB, Bluetooth, 5G, and Wi-Fi. However, hybrid coiled antennas have another major drawback.
Phone companies cannot equip super-fast charging capabilities if using this system. So while Chinese companies may find the technology cumbersome, companies like Samsung and Apple – whose products don't have a charging capacity exceeding 45 W – will find the new solution useful, assuming the cost is low. Fees are not an issue.
However, keep in mind that companies like Samsung rigorously test their phones with various cooling solutions. So it wouldn't be surprising if Samsung continues to use the vapor chamber for the Galaxy S24 series instead of the new system.
