Design
Samsung’s choice of a titanium frame gives the S24 Ultra a premium feel without the weight penalty of heavier metals. The phone is slim for its class and balances heft and ergonomics so it doesn’t feel toy-like in the hand. The flat edges, S Pen storage and Gorilla Glass Armor add utility and protection — plus IP68 sealing keeps you worry-free around dust and splashes. Available shades include muted titanium tones and a couple of bolder finishes for those who want a splash of color.
Display
The 6.8-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel delivers a seriously sharp QHD+ image and a 120Hz refresh rate that makes scrolling and animations buttery smooth. The panel’s peak brightness rating helps visibility under harsh sunlight, while the high contrast ratio produces deep blacks and punchy HDR highlights. If you edit photos or watch HDR content frequently, this is a standout screen — though it’s a very large panel, so small-handed users may prefer a smaller device.
Performance
Equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy and fast LPDDR5X memory, the S24 Ultra tears through heavy workloads — from editing 4K footage to running demanding games on high settings. Storage is fast UFS 4.0, so file transfers and app installs happen in seconds. In day-to-day use the UI stays fluid, background apps stay ready, and a robust cooling solution prevents sustained drops in performance during long sessions.
Camera
The quad-camera setup centers on a 200MP flagship sensor that produces extremely detailed images in good light, while a combination of telephoto lenses gives useful optical reach up to 5x and hybrid zoom beyond that. Night images benefit from computational image processing and Galaxy AI tools that clean up noise and recover detail. Video-wise, the S24 Ultra can record at very high resolutions and offers pro-level controls for creators who want to squeeze every detail out of a shoot.
Battery
A 5000mAh cell provides comfortable all-day stamina. Typical mixed use stretches into a second day for moderate users, and the phone supports reasonably fast wired charging along with wireless and reverse wireless charging. If you’re someone who expects marathon gaming sessions, you’ll still hit the charger by evening, but the device manages power efficiently for the majority of users.
