SAMSUNG Galaxy S24 Cell Phone, 256GB AI Smartphone, Unlocked Android, 50MP Camera, Fastest Processor, Long Battery Life, US Version, 2024, Onyx Black

I had a s20FE which was a very good phone at a great price. After 4 yrs the battery would drain often so I decided to trade it in. Amazon had an amazing deal on the s24 256g and based an positive reviews I grabbed it. Very easy to setup and transfer data using Samsung smart switch. I wanted a Samsung, a smaller phone with good battery life. I did not want to pay a premium price. Phone is perfect size and very light. Beautiful screen inside and outdoors. Very fast processor. I set charge to 80% max and get battery life all day and into next morning, and I normally still have 20% when I recharge. I've had over a month and have had no issues. I believe all the bugs were ironed out by the time I bought it. I have zero regrets and if you can get a deal on, I highly recommend. I'm not a big camera buff so can't comment too much on it, but the picture quality looks great.

The Samsung Galaxy S24 256GB is a powerful, feature-packed smartphone with ample storage, a sleek design, and smooth performance for everyday use.

Love this phone.My only harp is that i purchased the incorrect phone, but that is user.Error

I switched from Galaxy S7. I love the S7 but the CPU and RAM can't keep up with today's apps and websites. The S24 a decent phone with some annoying problems. It feels like a $400-500 phone. Here are my complaints: - The most annoying problem so far is that videos are glitchy, choppy, or laggy every few seconds. Whatever you want to call it, it's the opposite of smooth. This happens in every streaming app and website I've tried so it's not isolated to a single app. It's not a bandwidth or buffering issue. This happens in Adaptive (120 Hz) and Standard (60 Hz) motion smoothness. I enabled the Show Refresh Rate option in the Developer menu. I don't know if it's accurate, but every time a video gets laggy the refresh rate shows 24 (in Hz). When it shows 60 or 120 the video is smooth. The OS should should detect if a video is playing and sync to the frame rate of the video or set a fixed 60 Hz refresh rate. - The physical buttons click very loudly. When I hear that click my brain thinks "cheap junk". They're loudest buttons of any current or previous phone or tablet we own (which is a lot). I'm guessing this is a QC issue and most people don't experience this. I have resorted to using apps to open the volume control and turn off the screen so I don't need to click those buttons. - All three buttons are on the same side now. I need to use two hands to reliably take a screen shot. Yes, I have gotten it to work a couple times with only my right thumb but only after locking the screen and changing the volume a few times. - Samsung frequently nags me about signing in. I have uninstalled and disabled as many Samsung apps as possible, but it keeps asking me to sign in.

I decided to finally upgrade my S8 that I've had for 6 years. I've been a Samsung S series fan for a while so I knew I'd get the S24, I went with the base model over the 24+ or Ultra because I prefer the smaller size. My initial impressions: Its a very fast phone, switches seamlessly between tasks and is lightning quick on searches, apps, ect. The screen is beautiful, and the touch screen is VERY reactive. The battery life is also way better than i expect. I don't even charge my phone every night becasue i don't need to. It was also super easy to move to the new phone, just swapped over my sim card and was able to transfer my contacts ect with Samsung's transfer software with just a few clicks. The one negative: I find the S8 a more aesthetically pleasing phone. The S24's edges are more squared, less rounded. It looks boxier. Now I don't really care all that much because I keep my phones in case anyway, so this is a small negative.
