The Galaxy S24 follows closely with a 6.2-inch AMOLED screen, maintaining the same high brightness of 2600 cd/m² and a definition of 1080×2340 pixels. Like the Ultra model, it features a 120Hz refresh rate, ideal for a smooth user experience. Its screen is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2, offering good resistance to daily damage.
The Galaxy A55 5G and Galaxy A35 5G both offer 6.6-inch AMOLED screens, with peak brightness of 1000 cd/m² and a resolution of 1080×2400 pixels, as well as Corning Gorilla Glass Victus+ protection. These models, also offering a 120Hz refresh rate, are excellent for those looking for a good balance between performance and cost.
Finally, the Galaxy A15 5G has a 6.5-inch AMOLED screen with a brightness of 800 cd/m² and a resolution of 1080×2340 pixels, but a more modest refresh rate of 90 Hz. This model is ideal for those who prioritize budget but still want a quality visual experience.
The Galaxy S24 Ultra is the most efficient in this series, with its Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, closely followed by the Galaxy S24 which integrates an Exynos 2400 chipset. These models, with RAM of 12 GB and 8 GB respectively, are able to perform the most demanding tasks. The Galaxy A55 5G and A35 5G, both powered by Exynos 1480 and Exynos 1380 processors with 8GB of RAM, also offer solid performance for less cost. The Galaxy A15 5G, with its MediaTek Dimensity 6100+, targets a more accessible range while providing a smooth user experience for everyday tasks.
What configurations for photos and what connectivity?
Photographic capabilities are another crucial criterion in selecting a smartphone. The Galaxy S24 Ultra is equipped to capture premium images with its 200-megapixel main sensor, complemented by a 12-megapixel ultra-wide-angle and two 50- and 10-megapixel telephoto lenses offering 5x and 3x optical zooms.
The Galaxy S24, although slightly less equipped, nevertheless has a robust configuration with a 50-megapixel main sensor, a 12-megapixel ultra-wide-angle module and a 10-megapixel telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom, which makes a great device for varied, high-quality photos.
The Galaxy A55 5G and Galaxy A35 5G share similar configurations, with 50-megapixel main sensors, 12-megapixel and 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle sensors respectively, and macro sensors that enrich close-up shooting possibilities.
Finally, the Galaxy A15 5G, although more accessible, offers a 50-megapixel main sensor and a 5-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens, as well as a 2-megapixel macro sensor, providing casual versatility.
In terms of connectivity, all models support 5G, with a special mention for Wi-Fi 7 on the Galaxy S24 Ultra which ensures state-of-the-art connectivity. The presence of NFC and Bluetooth 5.3 technology on all these models ensures extensive compatibility with a multitude of devices and services.
The Galaxy S24 Ultra and Galaxy S24 are equipped with robust 5000 mAh and 4000 mAh batteries respectively, with charging capacities of 45 watts for the Galaxy S24 Ultra and 25 watts for the Galaxy S24. Both models support wireless charging and reverse charging, providing maximum flexibility in power management.
The Galaxy A55 5G, Galaxy A35 5G and Galaxy A15 5G, although more affordable, are nonetheless competitive with each having a 5000 mAh battery and 25 watts of charging. Finally, note that all models, except the Galaxy A15 5G, are certified IP68 or IP67, therefore completely waterproof and dustproof.
