2024 Ultra: S Pen, 200MP main camera and 5x telephoto

Buying call

Buy the Galaxy S24 Ultra if you want the S Pen, a 200MP main camera, 5x telephoto and seven years of updates in a mature Ultra body. It still holds up for zoom and note-taking. Skip it if you need the brighter display and silicon jump on newer Ultras, or if you never use the S Pen — a regular S24 or S25 is enough.
