The phones will be available to buy outright from Wednesday 31st January.<\/p>\n
If you pre-order the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra before Tuesday, 30th January, you can get a 1TB model for the cost of the 512GB \u2013 that\u2019s double the storage for \u00a3200 less, but more on that when we get to the price.<\/p>\n

Samsung Galaxy S24 series UK price: How much does it cost?<\/strong><\/h2>\n
![\"samsung]( "\\"samsung")
\n<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<\/div>Samsung S24 series via Samsung<\/span><\/figcaption> Samsung<\/i><\/span><\/div>\n The S series is known for coming with a hefty price tag, and with the addition of Samsung Galaxy AI, it\u2019s unsurprising that the cost has shot up once again.<\/p>\n
The price for the Samsung Galaxy S24 starts at \u00a3799 for 128GB and then up to \u00a3859 for 256GB.<\/p>\n
The S24+ will set you back at least \u00a3999 for 256GB and \u00a31,099 for 512GB.<\/p>\n
Then the S24 Ultra tops it off with a cost of \u00a31,249 for 256GB, \u00a31,349 for 512GB and \u00a31,549 for 1TB.<\/p>\n
However, right now you can grab each of the higher storage models for the same cost as their lower storage counter part, so \u00a3799 for the 256GB S24, \u00a3999 for the 512GB 24+ and \u00a31,349 for the 1TB S24 Ultra.<\/p>\n

Samsung Galaxy S24 series design: What does it look like?<\/strong><\/h2>\n
![\"Samsung]( "\\"Samsung")
\n<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<\/div>Samsung S24 series.<\/span><\/figcaption><\/div>\n The all-new S24, S24+ and S24 Ultra smartphones come in four different colourways: Onyx Black, Marble Grey, Cobalt Violet and Amber Yellow. You don\u2019t have to be a Samsung aficionado to notice how different this muted palette is to the mint and lavender tones of the S23<\/a>, but we can\u2019t say we\u2019re sorry to see them bringing in a sleeker, more professional look. However, if you prefer a brighter phone then don\u2019t despair; customers who pre-order online will have access to three more exclusive shades: Jade Green, Sandstorm Orange and Sapphire Blue.<\/p>\n
Colour isn\u2019t the only change that\u2019s been made, however. This time around, Samsung has fitted the S24 and S24+ with its slimmest bezel yet, meaning the S24 display size has increased to 6.2-inches (from 6.1) and the S24+ to 6.7-inches (from 6.6). The Samsung S24 Ultra has the same 6.8-inch display as the S23 Ultra, but has ditched the curvature display for a flat screen which will apparently make it easier to use the S Pen.<\/p>\n
The S24 Ultra is also the first Samsung phone to have a titanium frame, bringing in 56 per cent more durability and protection against bumps. This, combined with brand-new Corning Gorilla Armour glass, means you\u2019d need to have a lot of muscle (and possibly a tank) to damage this device.<\/p>\n
Last but definitely not least, Samsung has proved with the S24 their commitment to upping the sustainability with every new phone. This year\u2019s series incorporates recyclable material in the battery, speakers, side keys, and glass, as well as 100 per cent recyclable packaging.<\/p>\n

Samsung Galaxy S24 series specs: What is Samsung Galaxy AI?<\/strong><\/h2>\n
![\"Samsung]( "\\"Samsung")
\n<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<\/div>\nWith the new Samsung Galaxy S24 Series, it\u2019s all about AI. These new phones have enhanced AI capabilities in their cameras, gaming, keyboards and so much more. But if you\u2019re still not sure what that actually means during day-to-day use, don\u2019t worry, we\u2019ve broken it down for you.<\/p>\n
Communication<\/strong><\/h3>\n
One of the biggest AI-led features of the S24 is Live Translate. The phones come with a built-in two-way translator that can interpret conversations over text and in real time. So, if you\u2019re on the phone with someone speaking French, your Samsung will translate what they\u2019re saying to you and vice versa, so you can carry out a seamless conversation without the language barrier.<\/p>\n
The keyboard also comes with a function called Tone Tweak, which will give you suggestions on how to phrase a message for certain situations. So if you\u2019re looking for a professional tone or an Instagram caption, your phone can suggest one for you.<\/p>\n
Other functions include a transcript assist that can pick up the voices of over 20 people in a room, a note assist to summarise and organise your notes pages, and the Circle to Search feature, which lets you Google anything you see on screen (from an image, social media post of website) by simply holding down the home button and circling the object.<\/p>\n
Camera<\/strong><\/h3>\n
It won\u2019t surprise anyone that one of the biggest changes in the S24 series is the camera. The S24 Ultra has a total of five cameras on the back and up to 10x zoom, so even if you\u2019re at the very back of the stadium at the Eras tour, you should be able to take clear and high-quality photos to capture Taylor in all her glory. Plus, the Ultra\u2019s new 5x optical zoom camera has 1.6x larger pixels than the S23 making it perfect for taking photos at night.<\/p>\n
Then, once you\u2019ve taken your snaps, you can use the AI editing tools to remove reflections, put slow motion on videos and even move objects around within the picture. At the hands-on event, we tried this function for ourselves; when we cut out and moved a skipping rope within a picture, the AI was able to fill in the empty space behind it as if nothing had been touched.<\/p>\n
Graphics<\/strong><\/h3>\n
For gamers, the S24 series has boosted the Ray Tracing by 57 per cent from the S23 and has a much larger vapour chamber cooling system. In short, it can run at a higher frame rate for longer, and without consuming your battery life. Plus the S24 series features Samsung\u2019s brightest display yet \u2013 up to 40% brighter than its predecessors.<\/p>\n

Samsung Galaxy S24 series hands-on review: Is the Samsung Galaxy S24 worth buying?<\/strong><\/h2>\n
![\"Samsung]( "\\"Samsung")
\n<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<\/div>\nAt the hands-on event, the RadioTimes.com<\/strong> team spent a lot of time playing around with the S24\u2019s new functions, particularly the AI-based ones.<\/p>\n
For us, the stand-out feature was the new Circle to Search function, which can be used on any image or webpage. To test it, we decided to go to a random webpage and select the old favourite Ninja Air Fryer. After holding down the home button for a few seconds, we circled the air fryer and watched as the phone produced a whole page of links and articles to browse through based on that specific model.<\/p>\n
We were also impressed by the cameras, specifically the 5x optical zoom on the S24 Ultra, which could pick up objects from across the table in sharp detail. The Photoshop-style editing features were fun to use and produced undeniably seamless images, although that may not matter to you if you\u2019d rather go for that unfiltered look.<\/p>\n
Aside from the AI functions, all three phones were light, easy to hold, and performed well across the board, but that\u2019s always going to be the case when you\u2019re paying these sorts of this prices.<\/p>\n
On reflection, last year\u2019s S23 series seems to have done much of the heavy lifting in terms of design and graphics, with the main point of difference being the addition of AI. So if you\u2019re not fussed about all the bells and whistles of photo editing and translation, we\u2019d suggest saving a bit and going after an older model.<\/p>\n
However, if you want to take a step forward into the future of smartphones, then this is definitely the place to start.<\/p>\n
