The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is here and will be my daily driver for a bit now and on the surface looks the same as before bar the few subtle changes and the price of course which is now up there with Apple.
The S24 Ultra now has a flat front and the corners not so much stabbing your hands the frame is of course titanium making it a lighter and has a brighter screen and has Gorilla Glass Armor.
The buzzword for the new device is all about Galaxy AI which is something we have seen already and much like the Google Pixel 8 Pro which I use as a daily driver and we will put these to the test over the coming weeks but again there is a alot of computational stuff going on under the hood and with the cameras.
Speaking of the cameras there is one change here being the optical changed from 10X to 5X but packing more megapixels and as always spouting bigger numbers does not mean better results but we will see over the next while how the cameras do which I look forward to testing.
Under the hood there is a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 over last years 2 and of course was expected in this years flagship device from the company, I also use the Galaxy Z flip 5 and have the iPhone 15 Pro so again can do some tests side by side. With the S24 we have Android 14 with up to 7 years support which is huge for those who hang onto phones that long which I can say I do not know anyone that does but apparently it is now a trend starting to evolve and they are not the first to offer a lengthy support term.
Only having the phone two days now so far so good it is fast no issues doing the usual things I do on my phone which is crucify them when testing and with my workflow it has been good so far even loaded up with all my usual apps and thus far liking it with the big screen and so on but I am not a fan of the bigger device and this might be a stretch to far for me but let’s wait and see if it grows on me over the next few weeks.
If you have any questions you want answered feel free to ask and stay tuned for a selection of case reviews coming from our partners over the next week or two and any accessories that may follow and we will be back will more soon.
