The Phone I'd Buy Instead of the S24 Ultra

The Galaxy S24 Ultra is wonderful. In fact, it's my favorite phone of the year so far. But here's the thing: for most people, I think it's too much phone, and, more importantly, it's too expensive. Funnily enough, I'm not alone in thinking this. Samsung's president was recently pictured rocking the S24 Plus, the less glamorous, ignorable middle child of the range—not the most expensive slab. The more I use it, the more I'm thinking I, too, and you might want to follow in the footsteps of TM Roh with the Goldilocks phone in Samsung's 2024 range.
