Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra Features

The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is easily one of the most feature-packed phones Samsung has ever made. Whether you’re into photography, multitasking, or just want a phone that feels futuristic, the Galaxy S24 Ultra features deliver. Despite the device being a year old already, it’s still a fantastic value, since Samsung is committed to offering 7 years of updates with the Galaxy S24 and later flagship phones.

A Beautiful, Flat Display

Gone are the curved edges — the S24 Ultra brings a flat 6.8-inch QHD+ AMOLED screen with a silky-smooth 120Hz refresh rate. It’s super sharp, bright enough for sunny days, and now easier to hold without those accidental touches.

The new Gorilla Glass Armor adds serious scratch resistance. As well as providing a matte-like experience. This makes the display look even more black than it actually is. Samsung has said that this material resulted in a much smaller number of display replacements over the first year of the Galaxy S24 Ultra’s life.

Next-Level Performance

At the heart of the phone is the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy, a special version of Qualcomm’s latest chip that’s customized just for Samsung. It runs cooler, faster, and handles gaming, AI tasks, and everything else without breaking a sweat. It also comes equipped with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage to start. Though you can upgrade to 512GB or 1TB of storage as well. Keep in mind that there is no microSD card slot here.

Even in 2025, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 is a beast of a processor, with benchmarks that can match just about anything.

Galaxy AI: It’s Actually Useful

Samsung is leaning hard into AI this year, and honestly, it’s not just marketing fluff. Features like Live Translate let you have real-time conversations in different languages. Note Assist can tidy up your messy notes or even summarize long chunks of text. And Photo Assist? It can erase photobombers or even move people around with generative AI. It’s wild.

Here’s the full list of Galaxy AI features that are currently available on the Galaxy S24 Ultra with the One UI 7 update.

A Beast of a Camera System

The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra camera setup includes a 200MP main sensor, ultrawide, and dual zoom lenses — one with 5x optical zoom, the other with 3x. The results? Sharp, detailed photos in pretty much any lighting. Night mode has also been leveled up, making low-light shots look better than ever.

However, despite these specs, the Galaxy S24 Ultra is ranked number 32 globally on DXOMark’s camera rankings. The Galaxy S24 Ultra earned a score of 144 from DXOMark.

Battery That Keeps you going all day

The 5,000mAh battery easily lasts all day. And when it’s time to recharge, you’ve got 45W wired charging, fast wireless charging, and even reverse wireless charging to top up your earbuds or a friend’s phone.

We found in our Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra review that it was able to outlast many other flagship phones with larger battery capacities, too.
