Verdict
The Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus is the perfect middle child and a solid upgrade from its predecessor. It gets a bigger and brighter display as well as a solid battery life. Moreover, Samsung promises 7 years of software support, keeping it in line with Pixel phones, and excellent performance. The only drawbacks seem to be hit-and-miss AI features and okay-ish cameras.
Pros
- Big, bright, and vivid display
- Excellent performance
- 7 years of OS upgrades
Cons
- Cameras are not exceptional
- AI features are a hit-and-miss
Design and display
+
Samsung has kept things extremely minimal in the design department for the Galaxy S24 Plus. The phone features flat Gorilla Glass Victus 3 on the front and back along with a flat aluminium frame with rounded corners, giving a very iPhone-like look to it. It's easily the most ideal size among the three S24 phones for most people, offering a terrific in-hand feel without being as bulky as the S24 Ultra or as compact as the S24. The soft, matte back panel avoids smudges and fingerprints.Samsung has bumped up the screen size to 6.7-inch from 6.6-inch on its predecessor by reducing the bezels ever so slightly. You not only get a slightly bigger screen but a brighter one at that with up to 2600 nits peak brightness, ensuring the screen is perfectly legible under direct sunlight. Even the resolution has been bumped to 1440p, which means crisper content on screen while streaming media. The display gets HDR10+ support and 120Hz refresh rate, as expected. Overall, the Galaxy S24 Plus offers a flagship-grade display that is bigger and brighter than the S23 Plus, a clear and much-needed upgrade.

Cameras

The Galaxy S24 Plus' camera system doesn't see any major upgrades from its predecessor. You get a 50MP primary camera, a 12MP ultrawide lens, and a 10MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom. While the hardware remains pretty much the same, the Galaxy S24 Plus gets a bunch of AI-based editing features that allow you to tweak photos in post.Overall, the Galaxy S24 Plus' cameras can capture good-looking photos in daylight. Lowlight photography, however, even with ambient lighting around, could have been better. There's glare and noise to be found in photos in lowlight situations, which are handled better by rivals like the iPhone 15 Plus and Xiaomi 14. Check out some samples and comparison shots below to get a better idea of what the Galaxy S24 Plus' cameras can do.

Performance and software
+
Like the vanilla Galaxy S24, the Galaxy S24 Plus also gets the Exynos 2400 chipset. Samsung's in-house processor is surprisingly close to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 that's powering the S24 Ultra, at least in terms of benchmarks. On AnTuTu, the chipset managed a score close to 17 lakh, much like the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. This is aided by 12GB of RAM on board which also helps ensure smooth day-to-day multitasking. Not only is the chipset capable of running regular apps smoothly, but it can also handle graphically challenging games without skipping a beat.From a software perspective, the Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus comes equipped with the brand-new Android 14-based OneUI 6.1 out of the box. While the user interface retains much of its look from the previous OneUI iteration, it incorporates various enhancements such as revamped quick settings, a streamlined weather app, expanded customisations, performance improvements, and more. All of these contribute to an exceptionally user-friendly software experience.Additionally, the company has expanded its software support for the device, extending it from five major updates to seven, bringing it in line with the latest Google Pixel smartphones. This commitment ensures that the Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus will remain up-to-date and relevant until at least 2031.The Galaxy S24 series introduces Galaxy AI, a suite of AI features available across various tasks and functions. The most popular is Circle to Search, which allows you to look up anything by long-pressing the home button and then circling the subject/object on the screen. This Google-powered feature works surprisingly well and is quick to throw up information. Then there's Live Translation which gives you real-time translation during voice calls or spoken conversation. This feature was a bit of a hit-and-miss and didn't work quite as accurately as Circle to Search. It might take a few updates to get it right, but there's no denying the usefulness of it if Samsung can perfect it. There are a bunch of other Galaxy AI features that you can read about in our Galaxy S24 Ultra review.

Battery life
+
Since this is a Plus-sized model, you get a plus-sized battery of 4,900mAh compared to the 4,000mAh unit inside the Galaxy S24. The added 900mAh is important considering the display size and peak brightness levels it offers. It's also only 100mAh less than what the S24 Ultra offers. The Galaxy S24 Plus can last a full day with moderate to heavy usage thanks to a power-efficient chipset and large battery. In our PCMark Battery test, the device gave an average battery life of around 13 hours and 45 minutes.
