This one's easy. Last year, the Galaxy S24 started at $799. This year, the Galaxy S25 starts at...$799. It's a wash, in other words. That said, it's possible that Samsung drops the price of the S24 after the launch of the S25, but until that happens, these two phones cost the same amount of money.

Samsung has kicked off 2025 by releasing a whole host of new products, including the Galaxy S25 / S25 Plus, and the Galaxy S25 Ultra. The latter’s previous iteration, the Galaxy S24 Ultra, was created to rival its competitors at Apple and Sony with oodles of AI features,

Samsung has launched its 2025 flagship lineup: the Galaxy S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra. As expected, the company discussed its latest innovation in AI, collaboration with Google for Gemini, and its integration in One UI 7 throughout the majority of the event.

The differences between the Galaxy S24 Ultra and S25 Ultra are few and far between. However, the two most notable updates on the S25 Ultra are the new Snapdragon 8 Elite chip and the 50MP ultrawide shooter. Additionally, the S25 Ultra is a bit tougher and sleeker.

As Samsung unveils the Galaxy S25 Ultra, the Galaxy S24 Ultra is heavily discounted to ₹99,990 on Amazon. It features top-tier specs, but waiting for the S25 Ultra may be prudent due to potential performance upgrades and further price cuts.
