Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra has dropped to its lowest price ever – $1,150.
We gave Galaxy S24 Ultra in our view. We found it to be too expensive (this sale helps reduce that!) and the design and lack of Qi 2 support were drawbacks. However, we appreciated the camera improvements and felt that the S24 Ultra performed well and offered excellent battery life. Thanks to the large battery and energy efficiency achieved by the new processor, it often remained on 50 percent charge after 24 hours of regular use.
Another important thing powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset is the built-in AI (GAI) features in many devices, a big selling point for the Galaxy series this year as Samsung tries to compete with Google’s Pixel devices on this front. Translator mode can translate languages during calls, while Chat Assist can check your messages for grammar, spelling, and tone before sending them. There are also AI-powered options for image editing and searching. While the AI tools work more or less as expected, we felt they weren’t as polished as Google’s versions. Nevertheless, the Galaxy S24 Ultra is our pick .
The Galaxy S24+ is also $150 off. This is a record low for the version with 256 GB of memory – the price of the phone is currently $ 850. Like its little brother, the S24 gained the S24+ . We appreciated the battery life and (mostly) the GAI tools, although we felt the low-light photography performance was somewhat lacking.
