So far it's a bomb phone. Like the battery life is very extensive and my pictures are amazing, even in the dark. I did have an issue with my text failing but I chalked that up to service and location. Right now I'm in love. I hope it stays that way as this is my first real "good phone" purchase. I usually buy the cheap crappy FE phone types.
It looks quite basic, resembling a typical Android phone. Aside from the AI features and new additions, there's nothing particularly standout. The camera lenses could be made smaller, and the overall camera quality needs improvement. For a phone of its caliber, the camera performance should be significantly better.

I've been a loyal Samsung Galaxy lover for years, but I'm always hesitant about buying new because of the price. With my recent work demands ramping up, I decided to invest and I'm glad I did. Affirm made my monthly payments easy on my budget, and the new tools the s24+ offers are neat while still maintaining the overall Galaxy feel I've come to love. The color, although now covered by a sturdy case, is also gorgeous.
I upgraded from an A42 so expected the investment in the Galaxy model to be better than what I received. The battery life is actually less than my 3 year old A42, which is incredibly frustrating. Speed and usability are the same. The camera is great quality which feels like the only improvement.

This is probably my 6th Samsung device and I keep getting impressed every time. Easy old-to-new phone transfer; trade-in / financing options; enhanced specs and performance, and overall, a phone that I know I'll be able to use for multiple years. I keep my 5 star rating for Samsung!!
