What we don't like about Samsung Galaxy A24 (8GB + 128GB)

  • Lacks 5G connectivity, limited to 4G networks
  • Noticeable performance lag and stuttering, especially on the 4GB RAM model
  • Mediocre secondary cameras (ultrawide and macro) described by users as 'gimmicky'
  • Poor low-light camera performance with significant loss of detail
  • No official IP rating for water or dust resistance
  • Video recording is capped at 1080p with no 4K support
  • Charging speed (25W) feels slow for such a large battery, and no charger is included in the box
  • Single bottom-firing speaker lacks stereo support and has average sound quality

Verdict

The Samsung Galaxy A24 (8GB + 128GB) is a budget-friendly 4G smartphone featuring a vibrant 6.5-inch Full HD+ Super AMOLED display with a smooth 90Hz refresh rate and a peak brightness of 1,000 nits. It runs on an octa-core MediaTek Helio G99 processor and packs a large 5,000mAh battery with 25W fast-charging support, providing ample power for daily use. The camera system includes a capable 50MP main sensor with Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), a 5MP ultrawide lens, a 2MP macro lens, and a 13MP front camera. Key pros are the impressive Super AMOLED display quality, excellent battery life (lasting over two days on a single charge), OIS on the main camera, expandable storage via microSD, and a modern design. Cons include the lack of 5G support, a mono speaker, relatively thick screen bezels, and the 25W charger is sold separately.
