Product Detailed Descriptions:
Design
The Samsung Galaxy S24+ is made with a glass (Gorilla Glass Victus 2) on the front and glass on the back. Its frames are made of an aluminum frame making it IP68 dust-tight and water resistant. The S24+ is slightly larger compared to the Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus. S25+ panels are flat with camera islands for each lens.
On the front, the phone features a punch-hole camera like the Samsung Galaxy S-Series. You get the handset in seven different colors: Onyx Black, Marble Grey, Cobalt Violet, Amber Yellow, Jade Green, Sandstone Orange, and Sapphire Blue and it weighs 196 grams or 197 grams.
Display
With a 6.7-inch Dynamic LTPO AMOLED 2x display, the S24 Plus offers 1440P resolutions (1440 x 3120, 513 Pppi) and a 120Hz dynamic refresh rate and HDR10+ support. Although we advise you to use a screen protector, the display is protected with a Gorilla Glass Victus 2 shield.
The Auto brightness is 1452 nits with the standard white patch taking up 75% of the screen. The minimum brightness at the all-white screen is just 0.9nits which is great.
Performance
Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus comes with the Exygon 2400. The chipset is made on a 4nm 4LPP+ (EUV) manufacturing node. The CPU is one primary ARM Cortex-X4 core clocked at up to 3.2 GHz, two more at 2.9 GHz, and four efficiency Cortex-A720 cores, working at up to 1.95 GHz. S24+ has an Xclipse 940 GPU which is based on AMD’s modern RDNA 3 architecture. It clocks at 1109 MHz, offering 3408 GFLOPS of FP32 performance.
The chipset, GPU, and CPU work together to make the S24 Plus one of the best phones you can buy in Kenya today. We rate the performance of the Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus at 95%. It is a performer phone.
Camera
The snaps taken with this camera are powered by a ProVisual engine. The main camera uses the same sensor as its predecessor the Galaxy S23+. The photos from the main camera are very clear and detailed which closely resemble those of the S25+. The Selfie remains the best up to now because its photos are hard to make correct. Overall, the S24 Plus camera is not 100% excellent but for anyone who wants good photos that are well sharpened and clear or those who want a phone for content creation, this is a better option.
