Design and Size
Squared off design and a very slightly larger size
With a triple camera setup on its back, the Galaxy S24 is similar to the Galaxy S23, but look closer and you will spot some changes.
The big difference surely are the flat sides on the new Galaxy S24, which make it feel similar to an iPhone.
While the screen size is slightly bigger now, the physical size of the phone has changed so slightly you wouldn't notice, and both phones are quite compact for 2024.
The two also feature an aluminum frame, but you now have a tougher Armor Aluminum frame on the S24, and the finish is matte instead of glossy. A closer inspection also shows the gap between the rear panel and the frame is practically seamless on the newer phone.
The rest has remained the same between the S24 and S23: both have an IP68 rating and both come with a USB-C port on the bottom.

- Marble Gray
- Cobalt Violet
- Amber Yellow
One thing that has not changed is the packaging: the Galaxy S24 arrives in a slim box with no charger and there is only a USB-C cable included in the box.
