Samsung has just announced the Galaxy S24 Ultra, the ultimate flagship phone for 2024 which we can expect to be a top recommendation. The new Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is a large device with an S Pen that looks like the old Galaxy Note phones, but it comes with all the latest hardware and software features. There are a few differences from the Galaxy S23 Ultra and they should greatly improve the user experience.
The Galaxy S24 Ultra boasts a titanium body, doing away with Armor Aluminum for a more premium metal. The display on the front is flat with thin bezels, providing more screen real estate. The sides have an outward curve for a more comfortable and ergonomic feel unlike the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24 Plus, which are completely flat.
The phone comes in Titanium Yellow, Titanium Violet, Titanium Black, and Titanium Gray, with exclusive versions in Titanium Orange, Titanium Green, and Titanium Blue on the Samsung.com store. The Galaxy S24 Ultra also features Corning Glass Armor shielding for better durability.
The device has a 6.8-inch QHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display with a 2,600-nit peak brightness, making it one of the phones with the brightest displays. The new feature on the Galaxy S24 Ultra is the abundance of AI features including Chat Assist, Samsung Notes, Live Translate, Interpreter, and Circle to Search among other new AI-powered features.
The Galaxy S24 Ultra is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 with 12GB of RAM and comes in three storage versions: 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB. The camera system has been revamped, featuring a 200MP main camera, a 10MP 3X telephoto, a 50MP 5X telephoto, and a 12MP ultra-wide.
The starting price of the Galaxy S24 Ultra with 256GB is set at $1299.99 and pre-orders start on January 17. There will be a number of discounts and deals available, including an offer for the 1TB version at the price of the 512GB version.
Overall, we expect that the Galaxy S24 Ultra will become one of the top recommended phones regardless of the OS and ecosystem. We will reserve our final judgment for the full review, but historically, Samsung’s flagship devices have been successful, and we expect the Galaxy S24 Ultra to follow suit.
