Tucked discreetly within the phone’s left side, a simple press on the cap ejects this digital companion. Nestled in its slot, the S Pen not only resides comfortably but also charges wirelessly, ready for action.

While its form factor might resemble a flattened golf pencil, comfort takes a backseat to functionality. Precise note-taking, detailed annotations, and on-the-go sketching become effortless with the S Pen’s pressure sensitivity. A dedicated side button offers additional control, from capturing photos to navigating presentations with ease.

Samsung elevates the S Pen experience further with dedicated software. Tools like Smart Select (perfect for grabbing web content) and Samsung Notes empower users to unleash their creativity, while Air Actions provide intuitive gesture controls. However, the lack of significant S Pen upgrades for two consecutive years raises an eyebrow.

Despite this, the S Pen remains a unique feature in the smartphone landscape. Its seamless integration and diverse functionalities solidify it as a valuable asset for the creative and productive user.

S24 Ultra: Powerhouse Battery with Blazing-Fast Charging

The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra boasts a long-lasting 5,000mAh battery, the fuel behind its impressive performance.

This powerhouse cell supports wired charging speeds of up to 45W, giving you a quick top-up when needed (charger not included). For those who prefer wireless charging, the S24 Ultra offers convenient 15W wireless charging and even lets you share your power with other devices through 7.5W reverse wireless charging.

Our video playback test, a benchmark for battery endurance, saw the S24 Ultra conquer 14 hours and 10 minutes of continuous HD streaming with the screen at full brightness. This surpasses last year’s S23 Ultra and positions the S24 Ultra as a strong contender in the battery life race among Android phones. While the OnePlus 12 edges it out with a near 18-hour runtime, the S24 Ultra comes close, offering peace of mind for even power users.

The real star of the show, however, is the charging speed. Utilizing a 45W charger, the S24 Ultra surges from empty to full in a mere 80 minutes. Need a quick boost? A 15-minute charge delivers 24%, and 30 minutes gets you to a solid 51%. This rapid refueling ensures you’re never left stranded with a low battery.

The S24 Ultra: A Connectivity Powerhouse

The S24 Ultra boasts cutting-edge connectivity options,

making it a true powerhouse for data transfer and staying connected. 5G takes center stage, supporting both mmWave for ultrafast speeds and C-Band for wider coverage. Additionally, Wi-Fi 7 delivers next-generation wireless performance, while NFC enables contactless payments and Bluetooth 5.3 ensures seamless pairing with your devices.

Real-world testing on Verizon’s 5G network in New York City showcases the S24 Ultra’s impressive capabilities. Download speeds soared to a staggering 810Mbps, a significant improvement over the S23 Ultra’s 661Mbps in the same location. Upload speeds also saw a boost, reaching 54.1Mbps compared to the S23 Ultra’s 25.6Mbps.

When connected to a Wi-Fi 6 access point, the S24 Ultra delivered peak download speeds of 505Mbps, outperforming the RedMagic 9 Pro’s 488Mbps. Upload speeds remained consistent across both devices at around 17Mbps, as these are typically limited by the internet service provider rather than the phone itself.

The S24 Ultra’s strength extends even to fringe areas of your home. Testing at the farthest point from the Wi-Fi access point in an apartment still yielded respectable speeds of 90.1Mbps down and 22.0Mbps up, demonstrating its ability to maintain a reliable connection.
