Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra: Our first impression

Samsung has recently launched its S24 lineup at the galaxy unpacked event on 17 January 2024. We had a chance to get our hands on the device exclusively and here's what we thought of it in terms of first impressions:

Design: Galaxy S24 Ultra has similar looks to the S23 Ultra and comes in Titanium Black and Titanium Grey. It also has a very narrow bezel and titanium frame.

Display: While curved screens of S23 ultra were treasured, Samsung has replaced curved screens with 6.8-inch LTPO AMOLED flat display. This change is likely due to the vulnerability of the curved screens which is prone to getting a crack at the side of the devices. It features a WQHD+ resolution display and IP68 water and dust resistance. Also, this is the first time that any galaxy device comes with a Ultra-Wideband (UWB) antenna. With 120 Hz adaptive refresh rate, the device feels more light to use.

Camera: Galaxy S24 Ultra has quad rear camera setup on the back, 200MP with f/1.7 (wide), 50MP (periscope telephoto) and 5x optical zoom, 10MP with f/2.4 (telephoto) and 3x optical zoom, and 12MP with f/2.2 (ultrawide). S24 allows 8K videos with optical 5x zoom. The device also has a selfie shooter of 12MP f/2.2 (wide) and a 4K video recording feature.

Technical and battery: The most anticipated Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 is available on the Galaxy S24 Ultra with 5,000 mAh battery with both wired and wireless charging options. 

Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is currently priced at BDT 2,43,999 (12/256 GB) in Bangladesh. According to Samsung, pre-orders will be taken till February 06, 2024.
