Samsung has introduced a special Independence Day offer on its Galaxy S24 smartphone, cutting the price from Rs 74,999 to Rs 62,999. This limited-time discount is available across Samsung.com, exclusive stores, and major online and offline retailers. But with other deals in the market, is this the best option? Here’s what you need to know.
Price Drop Details
The Rs 12,000 discount on the Galaxy S24 is a significant reduction, aimed at attracting buyers during the Independence Day period. However, it’s important to note that Amazon India is offering the same model with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage for Rs 55,990 in Amber Yellow and Marble Gray. If the color isn’t a concern, this deal could be more economical. SBI credit card users can save another Rs 1,000 on the purchase.
What You Get with the Galaxy S24
The Galaxy S24 is equipped with a 6.2-inch Dynamic AMOLED display, offering a 1-120Hz adaptive refresh rate and a resolution of 2340×1080 pixels. The display is bright, durable, and protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2.
The smartphone is powered by Samsung’s Exynos 2400 processor with 8GB of RAM. It’s available in storage options ranging from 128GB to 512GB. For photography, the S24 includes a 50MP main camera with optical image stabilization, a 12MP ultra-wide lens, and a 10MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom. The front camera is a 12MP shooter.
The device runs on OneUI 6.1, based on Android 14, and comes with seven years of software support. It also features a 4,000mAh battery with 25W fast charging, Qi wireless charging, and wireless PowerShare capabilities.
Is the Discount Worth It?
While Samsung’s Rs 62,999 offer is appealing, especially with the added benefits of official store support, the lower price on Amazon might be a better deal for those who don’t mind the color difference. Buyers should also consider their storage needs, as upgrading to a higher storage variant will add north of Rs 10,000 to the price. The 8GB + 256GB variant of the device is selling for Rs 67,999 on Amazon.
