Five Reasons to Upgrade your Galaxy Note to the New Galaxy S24 Ultra (2024)

Speed, of course, will make your work more efficient too. And we loaded the Galaxy S24 Ultra with our longest lasting battery yet7—which enables video playback for up to 30 hours and music listening for up to 95 hours8—along with an AI-powered processor that can tell the difference between high and low-power tasks to keep them running even longer.

5. For the first time on Galaxy, an AI experience front and center.

Finally, upgrading to the S24 Ultra will bring Galaxy Note users into the AI age with a set of capabilities never seen before on a Galaxy device. Galaxy AI’s new experiences include:

• Circle to Search9 with Google. If you see a dish that looks delicious on social media, just circle the image with your finger or S Pen and search results will pop up with information on the dish along with ingredients and recipes. Maybe you spotted a fun photo of your friend on vacation? Trace a landmark in the background, and Circle to Search will give you details on the location so you can visit yourself.
• Live Translate.10 You’re traveling in a foreign country where you don’t speak the language and need to make a dinner reservation. Enable Live Translate when making the call and talk in your native tongue. Your S24 Ultra will translate what you say—and what the person at the other end of the line says back to you—in real time. It’s that easy—and it also works with text messages. Live Translate erases the language barrier across 13 languages, enabling you to communicate easily with roughly half of the people on
• Chat Assist11 and Transcript Assist.12Galaxy AI can up your game and make you more productive just about every time you use your phone. Chat Assist can suggest the right words and tone for the perfect text to a friend, a professional message to your boss or a breezy social media post13—and it can even check your spelling and grammar. The updated Voice Recorder App has Transcript Assist to give you an instant transcription, whether you’re in class, in a meeting, or just want to be hands free, and it can even differentiate between speakers and summarize the conversation. You can also translate transcripts between languages.

The Galaxy S24 Ultra delivers all these capabilities and more—including seven generations of OS updates and seven years of security updates14— in our most durable package to date: a titanium frame and the new Corning® Gorilla® Armor15 screen protection, which offers the most impact resistant, antireflective, and scratch proof glass we have ever used in a smartphone. It’s the perfect upgrade for anyone who loves their Galaxy Note … and is ready for an entirely new smartphone experience.

For a limited time only, on Samsung.com/Shop Samsung App, pre-order or purchase a new qualifying Galaxy device (“Qualifying Purchase”), send in your qualifying trade-in device to Samsung through the Samsung Trade-In Program, and if Samsung determines your trade-in device meets all eligibility requirements, you will receive a trade-in credit specific to your qualifying trade-in device to apply toward your Qualifying Purchase. Device models that currently qualify for trade-in and trade-in credit amounts associated with those models are available on Samsung.com and the Shop Samsung App; eligible models and amounts may change at Samsung’s sole discretion.

Anticipated trade-in value will be applied as a credit at time of purchase, but, if you do not send in your trade-in device within 15 days of receipt of your Qualifying Purchase, you will be charged back for the trade-in credit applied to your purchase, or if you send in your trade-in device within 15 days of receipt of your Qualifying Purchase but Samsung determines your device does not meet all eligibility requirements, you will be charged back for the trade-in credit applied to your purchase minus $25. Participation in this program does not excuse you from contracts with your carrier or retailer (or any related payments or fees) for the device that was traded in.
