Trading in my Galaxy 7 for the S24 was a big change. If you like lots of techy stuff this is the phone for you. I prefer less techy stuff and am still learning how it all works. Perfect size to fit in my pants pockets or purse. Glad I finally updated my phone to the S24.
I lost a lot of data from Samsung account. The transfer could be much better. But the phone itself is good.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great phone and excellent trade in on my Galaxy S9

Thanks to an offer, I was able to replace my ailing S9 with a new S24. Setup and transfer went smoothly. Adapting to the new phone has had some challenges, but I am finally getting the settings the way I like.
Small phone jam packed with great features. I have never liked the huge phones and coming from a S9 to an S24 I was looking for same size and I got it with all the upgrades of the larger models. Couldn't ask for more.
Total disappointment. Buy a different phone. The S24 has a serious firmware bug that prevents the user from answer ANY calls. Calls can only be answered while the phone is unlocked and the Phone App is running which is never the case. I spent all day searching and testing to find a work around for this. You have to set the Vol Up button to answer calls or change it to single tap under Interaction and Dexterity because it is not possible to do a swipe of the green answer icon even though it senses being touched. The average user will never be able to figure this out. Seriously a phone that can't answer calls! Shame on you Samsung.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thanks for reaching out to share your experience with the Galaxy S24. We always love hearing from our customers! If you are unable to make calls from your phone, several factors may be at play, such as the SIM card, the device itself, or your account or carrier. To troubleshoot, start by checking if your phone is blocking calls; disable Do Not Disturb mode to ensure calls can reach you and verify that the number or contact isn’t blocked. Next, confirm that your account is in good standing and that your service is active. Inspect your phone for any physical or liquid damage by checking the Liquid Damage Indicator (LDI) on the battery and in the battery compartment; the LDI should be solid white or white with pink or purple Xs. Finally, ensure that the SIM card is correctly installed and undamaged. If needed, contact your carrier for assistance with testing or replacing the SIM card, and if you have another active phone on the same network, consider swapping SIM cards to see if that resolves the situation. Following these steps should help you restore calling functionality. If this persists, please be sure to reach out to us at Samsung Support. -Kelvin smsng.us/Samsung-Support smsng.us/Facebook-Messenger smsng.us/X-Messages smsng.us/Samsung-Community smsng.us/Warranty-Info smsng.us/Samsung-Care-Plus
