Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra review: A vivacious return to the top


After more than a week, I'm comfortable crowning the Galaxy S24 Ultra as the champ.

We've begun to see diminishing returns in hardware innovation of standard slab phones, and even huge processing or software advancements no longer hold the weight of excitement they once had. I certainly have my nitpicks — the camera still struggles to capture motion, I hate the uncomfortable square corners, and the PWM rate still bothers my eyes when there's not enough ambient light — but what Samsung delivered in the Galaxy S24 Ultra is nothing short of pure excellence. At night or on cloudy days, the flickering display still negatively affects me, but it takes a lot longer than when I try to use a Galaxy S23 Ultra, which gives me eye aches and headaches within seconds.
