The Galaxy S24 Ultra, released in January 2024, stands out in Samsung’s lineup as a flagship option focused on raw performance and cutting-edge features. Just one generation old in 2025, this device blends a robust build with a feature-packed camera—which is saying something, given the yearly “Ultra” expectations. If you want the latest bells and whistles that actually feel overdue, this is a solid contender.

Who is this for?
The Galaxy S24 Ultra is engineered for power users: professionals managing projects, photographers needing versatile lens options, and anyone who wants a stylus-equipped phone that acts like a digital notepad. Its large size and camera array don’t make it the most pocket-friendly device. If you’d rather have a smaller form factor, the regular S24 or S24+ might be easier to handle.
