Vote now: Would you buy the Galaxy S24 Ultra now that it’s more expensive?

The Galaxy S24 series is finally official, and even though fans of the brand and tech enthusiasts lament the lack of upgrades and innovations since the world premiere, there is one big change, and it concerns the Galaxy S24 Ultra. What is the change? His price.

The Galaxy S24 Ultra starts at $1,299, a hundred dollars more than its predecessor. It could be argued that the price hike is due to the use of exotic materials, such as the titanium frame, but whatever the reason, the price is hard to swallow, especially if you pay in full, with no exchange or other subsidy.

So there is a legitimate question here. Now that the Galaxy S24 Ultra is more expensive than the iPhone 15 Pro Max, would these small changes – AI tricks, a titanium frame and a fancy periscope camera – be enough to justify the price hike?

And more importantly, would people still buy the Galaxy S24 Ultra? Leaving foldable phones aside, the S24 Ultra is one of the most expensive Android phones on the market. Sure, Sony sometimes outdoes itself by posting crazy numbers on its top Xperia models, like the $1,599 the 1 Mark IV launched for, but those don't last more than a month.

So, would you still buy the Galaxy S24 Ultra for $1,299? Or is this model now overpriced and too expensive? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts on titanium, artificial intelligence and inflation in the comments section below.
