I love the... moreI use a case with raised lips to protect my phone agains falls with a matte glass screen protector. The case doesn't add much weight to the phone but its better than getting the frames scratched.

Banos, 28 Apr 2026Hi. New to this forum and i think it is brilliant, with lots of experienced wisdom! I love the... moreWelcome to the forum. Using a case will not make s24 ultra heavy. I use a slim full body bumper case and its not heavy at all. Theres no different in weight. It doesnt make phone heavier. And the case protects my phone. I use tempered glass screen protector which I know is better. I hope this helps.

Banos, 28 Apr 2026Hi. New to this forum and i think it is brilliant, with lots of experienced wisdom! I love the... moreYeah, I totally agree, a case makes the S24U thicker and heavier. I use an original Samsung silicone case daily and an original standing grip case for trips abroad. Can't really complain though, gotta protect it.
For screen protectors, I use a film instead of tempered glass or anything else. Not using the original one right now, even though I have an original one. I'll probably use it sometime this year.

Hi. New to this forum and i think it is brilliant, with lots of experienced wisdom! I love the features of the S24 ultra and am about to get one. I always put a protective case on my phones, but does the S24ultra become ridiculously big in your pocket with a case? Is there a particular case that you'd recommend? Also, do you think a (glass) screen protector is important given it's supposed to have a tough screen?

Marcus, 07 Mar 2026Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra will eventually get an update on privacy display as well as all A.I n... moreNo. It won't. The Privacy Display feature is hardware, meaning that it's built into the S26 Ultra's screen/display panel. It won't be coming to the S24 Ultra, ever. Maybe the Horizon Lock feature may come in the S24 Ultra in the foreseeable future because that is software based.

This phone is awesome. It's a work horse of a phone. Very good cameras. The S-Pen is very nice as it's the last of the Bluetooth enabled S-Pens. OneUI is the reason I bought this phone and I'm glad I did. Smartphones peaked in 2019 and the S24U is in my opinion the 2nd time Samsung smartphones peaked.

Maria, 11 Apr 2026Honestly, the S24U's corner edge isn't as bad as you might've heard. I actually... moreI agree

The boxy design of this phone infact from the Note 10+ till the S24 Ultra is a stand out! It makes the phone look more attractive than the rounded ones & once you start using them you can go back to those rounded corner phones.

I actually use it, and it doesn't hurt or cut my hand. It might if you constantly press it into your hand, but would people really do that just to trash the S24U's design?
