The S24 lineup launched in January 2024 as Samsung’s latest smartphone with an emphasis on AI features. The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is the higher-end phone in the lineup, and it’s currently down to its lowest price of $965 (originally $1,299.99) right now, according to price tracking tools.
PCMag calls the Galaxy S24 Ultra the “finest Galaxy yet” and considers it one of the best Android phones you can buy for the long haul. Our tech writer, Joshua Hawkins, agreed with the praise in his review of the S24, saying it is “a strong enough contender that I’d be willing to ditch my iPhone and make the jump to Android.”
Some of the S24’s AI features include “Live Translate,” which translates both text and voice during phone calls, and “Interpreter,” which splits your Galaxy’s screen in half and translates a two-way conversation in real-time through text.
The S24 Ultra comes with 256GB of storage, 12GB of RAM, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy processor, 3,120 by 1,440 pixels of resolution, and about 14 hours of battery. It also comes with a S Pen stylus.
Its screen is 0.1 inches bigger than the other S24 phones, and the battery is 100mAh larger than the S24+, the mid-tier S24. But the biggest difference between the rest of the lineup is in the camera. Both the S24+ and Ultra have a 12MP ultra-wide camera, a 50MP shooter, and a 10MP telephoto rear camera with a 12MP front camera, but the S24 Ultra has a 200MP main camera and a second 50MP telephoto lens camera.
