Score Breakdown
Editorial
A fantastic value considering that it differs from S24 Ultra by a small, incremental downgrade in processing speed, screen reflection and minor photo deficiencies. And it is smaller (easier to use) than the S24 Ultra. Samsung still promises 4 more years of OS updates making this one of the best options if you donât want to spend much.
Pros & Cons
PROs
fast SD 8 Gen 2 with UFS4.0 performance, 500ppi screen, great cameras: 200MP main + 2 x 10MP tele + 12MP ultrawide all with PDAF and a 12MP selfie with PDAF too!, Samsungâs mature and feature rich software and a full-blown best-on-the-market desktop replacement functionality
CONs
big 234gr phone, less than 24-hour battery life, no memory expansion and Samsungâs persistent effort to lock you into their ecosystem (updated Apr 13, 2025)
