Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus review: Middle child syndrome

Samsung’s Galaxy S Plus series has always been somewhere between the refined looks of the entry-level models and the comprehensiveness of the Ultra series. The Galaxy S24 Plus shows signs that this middle ground is trying to develop on its own.Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus review: design and key featuresThis year’s Galaxy S24 models have become more square and angular. Like the regular S24, the Galaxy S24 Plus also means the elimination of any curves on the side frames.
The result is that the Galaxy S24 Plus looks and feels very similar to the iPhone. Of course, the irony is that Apple has begun adding curves to its smartphones in the iPhone 15 series. Regardless, the design of the Galaxy S24 Plus is pleasing, albeit derivative. Even the unique, non-functional camera module is much more bland than before.As you’d expect, the Galaxy S24 Plus is a lot larger than the regular S24, but Samsung has done a good job of making the larger phone usable every day. The S24 Plus is 7.7mm thick and weighs right around 200g (196g to be exact), making it relatively easy to carry around despite its size. It’s also pretty rugged, with Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on the front and back, and an Armor Aluminum 2 frame. The Galaxy S24 Plus is IP68 rated, so it’s also water and dust resistant enough.
The Galaxy S24 Plus not only has a larger screen than its 6.2-inch little brother (it measures 6.7 inches, up from the S23 Plus’ 6.6 inches), but it’s finally squeezed in a decent number of pixels. The previous Plus model had an FHD+ display, much like the non-Plus model, which meant the resolution wasn’t too crisp. In the Galaxy S24 Plus, you get a full QHD+, or 1,440 x 3120 resolution, much like the Galaxy S24 Ultra. You need to activate this feature in the Settings menu, which I of course did immediately, but once it was activated, the Galaxy S24 Plus finally felt like it could compete with the likes of the Pixel 8 Pro and OnePlus 12.
It’s an LTPO panel that can be adjusted between 1 and 120Hz, making it more efficient than ever. That’s a good thing, too, because with HDR, peak brightness is boosted to 2,600cd/m2. With auto-brightness turned off, I recorded a maximum brightness of 718cd/m2, which is pretty good. Switching to Natural screen mode, color accuracy was respectable without being overly harsh. I recorded 99% sRGB color gamut coverage and an average Delta E of 1.65. Unsurprisingly, all of these numbers are very similar to the Galaxy S24. Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus review: performance and
Galaxy S24 Plus battery
lifeUnfortunately, Samsung has taken a step back a bit when it comes to processors in the Galaxy S24 series. Last year, Samsung went all-in on Qualcomm solutions, and this year, the global model of the Galaxy S24 Plus (like the Galaxy S24) runs the company’s custom Exynos 2400 chip.
All the usual benchmarks show it has a broad flagship experience, but it’s not as fast as the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 that ships with the US model. Considering the inclusion of a QHD+ display, it offers the slowest GPU performance of the series, only slightly ahead of the Galaxy S23 Plus in our usual testing. However, when it comes to sustained gaming performance, the Galaxy S24 Plus performs even worse than the Galaxy S24. Using the 3D Mark Solar Bay stress test, which runs a 20-minute graphics-intensive test that simulates a high-end gaming session, the Galaxy S24 Plus scored a pretty terrible 52.5% (10% worse than the S24), suggesting that the phone slows down significantly under load. I would have liked the Galaxy S24 Plus’s heat sink to provide additional surface area, but the Exynos 2400 seems to be struggling to run this super-sharp QHD+ display efficiently. No wonder Samsung uses FHD+ by default.
It may not be great for long gaming sessions, but the Galaxy S24 runs pretty efficiently when the load is light. While the 4,900mAh Galaxy S24 battery
is relatively small for a large-screen phone, it is larger than the 4,700mAh Galaxy S23 Plus battery
that came before it.
Despite its larger, brighter, and sharper display, the Galaxy S24 Plus lasted 28 hours and 13 minutes in our loop Galaxy S24 Plus battery
test. That’s about an hour and 40 minutes longer than the Galaxy S23 Plus and nearly nine hours longer than the Pixel 8 Pro, but also an hour and a half shorter than the OnePlus 12 and about six hours shorter than the Galaxy S24 Ultra. In general use, I was able to get about five hours of screen time all day and still have about 45% charge left. Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus review: SoftwareLike the rest of the Galaxy S24 series, the Plus model runs Android 14 with One UI 6.1. There’s a lot to love about Samsung’s custom UI. For me, it’s a little busy, with too much bloatware, and the setup process requires too much fiddling if you’re fully committed to the Google ecosystem.
None of this is insurmountable, but I found the need to manually switch to gesture-based controls and install things like Google Wallet a little annoying. The same goes for Samsung’s app tray layout, which arranges things in an atypical way.
