What to Expect
- Full feature compatibility with smooth, reliable performance
- The game requires approximately 20GB of storage with all resource packages do...
Older storage variants may load slightly slower
What Works
- High and Highest graphics quality presets are accessible in Genshin Impact display settings on Galaxy S24 Ultra, with detailed environment rendering and particle effects during elemental combat
- Samsung DeX mode allows Genshin Impact to run on an external monitor or TV via USB-C to HDMI connection while using the S24 Ultra as a touchscreen controller or pairing a Bluetooth gamepad
- Game Booster in One UI 6.1 on Android 14 automatically optimizes system resources when Genshin Impact launches, managing background processes and prioritizing GPU allocation
- Cross-save through a HoYoverse account syncs game progress between Galaxy S24 Ultra and other platforms including PC, PlayStation, and iOS devices
What Doesn't Work
- S Pen cannot be used as a gameplay input device within Genshin Impact as the game does not support stylus-based controls or hover interactions during active gameplay
- The 120Hz display refresh rate is not utilized by Genshin Impact which caps at 60fps regardless of device capability, though menus and system UI maintain the higher refresh rate
Common Issues & Notes
- The game requires approximately 20GB of storage with all resource packages downloaded, and Samsung's storage management in Android 14 Settings can identify large apps if space becomes limited
- Thermal management during extended play sessions is handled by the vapor chamber cooling system in the S24 Ultra, with Game Booster providing an optional performance monitoring overlay
- Installing Genshin Impact from the Galaxy Store versus Google Play Store results in the same game version, though in-app purchase pricing and payment methods may differ between storefronts

Understanding This Result
What "Compatible" Means Here
"Compatible" means the two products can connect, install, or run together and perform their core functions. It does not mean every feature works perfectly or that performance is identical across all configurations.
Minimum vs. Recommended
A "Yes" verdict means minimum requirements are met. But minimum support and a smooth experience are not the same thing. Newer hardware or the latest software version often unlocks better performance, more features, or fewer bugs.
Why Compatibility Can Vary
- Software or firmware version differences
- Regional hardware variants or carrier restrictions
- User-configurable settings (graphics, permissions, power modes)
- Updates that add or remove support after initial release
It says "Yes" but it doesn't work for me -- why?
Compatibility results reflect general support, not every individual setup. Differences in your software version, storage space, regional model, or installed updates can all affect whether something works on your specific device. Try updating both products to their latest versions first.
Can compatibility change after I buy something?
Yes. Software updates from either manufacturer can improve or break compatibility at any time. A product that works today may stop working after an update, and vice versa. We track these changes and update our results when new information is available.
