Is the Galaxy S24 worth it over the S23?

The S24 adds a brighter display, the newer chip, Galaxy AI features and two more years of updates. The cameras and battery are close to the S23, so S23 owners have little reason to switch.

How does the Galaxy S24 compare with the Galaxy S24 Ultra?

The S24 is much smaller and lighter, with a 6.2-inch screen and 3x zoom. The Ultra has a larger display, a 5x periscope zoom, a bigger battery and an S Pen, but it is heavier and bulkier.

Does the Galaxy S24 have a Snapdragon or Exynos chip?

It depends on the region: US models use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, while many European and other markets get the Exynos 2400. Both are fast, but the Snapdragon version generally runs cooler.

How long will the Galaxy S24 get software updates?

Samsung promises seven years of Android version upgrades and security patches, so the phone should stay supported well into the 2030s.

What is in the box with the Galaxy S24?

The box contains the phone, a USB-C cable and a SIM ejector tool. There is no charger or case included.

Is the Galaxy S24 good for photography?

It has a 50MP main camera, a 12MP ultrawide and a 10MP 3x telephoto, plus a 12MP front camera. Photos are sharp and colors are vivid, though low-light shots trail the best camera phones.

Our take on the Samsung S921B/DS Galaxy S24 256 Go Noir

The Galaxy S24 is Samsung's compact flagship phone: a 6.2-inch AMOLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate, the Exynos 2400 chip (Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in some regions), 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. It stands out for its small size, seven years of Android and security updates, and Galaxy AI features such as Circle to Search and live call translation. It suits people who want a fast, pocketable Android phone with long software support. Against rivals like the Pixel 8 and iPhone 15 it is smaller and lighter than most flagships, but its battery is modest and its camera hardware is close to the previous S23 rather than a big step up.
