Is the S24 Ultra worth it over the S24+?

If you want the S Pen, the 5x periscope zoom and the brightest screen, yes. The S24+ is lighter and easier to hold and covers most everyday needs.

How is it different from the S23 Ultra?

The S24 Ultra has a flat screen, a titanium frame, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and Galaxy AI. The camera hardware is close, so the upgrade matters mainly for the newer chip and longer update window.

Does it come with an S Pen?

Yes. The S Pen is built into the body and stores in a slot at the bottom.

How long does the battery last?

The 5,000mAh battery typically lasts a full day of mixed use. Heavy gaming or camera use will drain it faster.

Does it support eSIM and physical SIM?

Yes. It takes a nano-SIM and also supports eSIM, so you can run two lines.

Is the 512GB version worth choosing over 256GB?

If you shoot lots of 4K or 8K video or keep large game installs, the extra storage helps. There is no microSD slot, so storage is fixed at purchase.

Our take on the Samsung SM-S928B Galaxy S24 Ultra - 512GB - Blue

The Galaxy S24 Ultra is Samsung's top-tier flagship phone, built around a 6.8-inch flat AMOLED display, a titanium frame, and a built-in S Pen. It runs on the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy with 12GB of RAM, and adds Galaxy AI tools such as live call translation, Circle to Search, and generative photo editing. Its 200MP main camera with 5x optical zoom is the strongest zoom setup in the Galaxy line. It suits people who want the most capable Android phone with a stylus and long software support, but it is large and heavy compared with the S24 and S24+, and its camera gains over the S23 Ultra are modest.
