Samsung Galaxy S23
What does Jen say about the Samsung Galaxy S23?
After the first 36 hours, Jen sees the Galaxy S23 as a mini flagship: handy, fast, with a good camera and a surprisingly strong battery. The price rose from €899 for the S22 to €949, which she happily pays for the performance.

- Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, fast face recognition and a reliable fingerprint scanner
- Almost 8 hours of screen-on time
Cons
- Dust quickly collects between the camera lenses
- Speakers could be a bit better

Samsung Galaxy S24
What does Jen say about the Samsung Galaxy S24?
For Jen, the Galaxy S24 is a flagship for your pocket: light, handy and powerful, with a good display, Galaxy AI and seven years of updates. The smaller battery still lasts a long time, and the camera is scaled down but very good. Only the speakers sound tinny.
Pros
- Jen finds the Exynos 2400 keeps up with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3
- Handy at 6.2 inches and 167 g, ideal for one-handed use
- Brightest display in its class at up to 2,600 nits and 120 Hz
- Everyday photos impress, HDR photos straight in Instagram
- All Galaxy AI features, just like on the S24 Ultra
- Seven years of guaranteed updates, ultrasonic fingerprint sensor
Cons
- Speakers sound tinny at higher volumes
- Camera barely changed from the S23 and not at flagship level
