In our Samsung Galaxy S24 review, we called it 'the Galaxy's pocket powerhouse" – with a great battery life and excellent performance to go with versatile cameras and a durable design. The S24 Plus offers the same experience, with a bigger display and a longer-lasting battery, which we applauded in our Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus review.
Both devices are still excellent buys, despite the arrival of the baseline Galaxy S25 and newer models like the S25 Edge. And, we're often seeing it heavily discounted – dropping down to just AU$687 during EOFY sales. Snag a deal from Amazon, JB Hi-Fi or Samsung and pair it with one of our best SIM-only plans, and you'll be cheering.
Currently, the Samsung Galaxy S24 is out of stock at Vodafone. This makes Optus the owner of the best Galaxy S24 plan, as Telstra offers only one AU$70 p/m plan. And, with the recent Vodafone price increase, the value gap between Vodafone and Optus has shortened considerably. In contrast, only Vodafone is stocking the S24 Plus. Read on to check out the best deals and plans on both Galaxy S24 models below.

Samsung Galaxy S24 and S24 Plus: key information
The Samsung Galaxy S24 range features a mix of hardware and software improvements, although Samsung has specifically honed in on the latter with this iteration, specifically with its newfound AI tools.
The gap between Google and Samsung devices has dramatically shortened when it comes to AI integration, and that’s thanks to Samsung’s partnership with Google in the making of the S24 series. It means that features that were once exclusive to the Google Pixel 8, such as Magic Editor and generative AI wallpaper, are inside the Galaxy S phones.
Samsung’s cooperation with Google has also brought over the Circle to Search feature, which lets you circle anything on-screen with your finger after long-pressing the home button to instantly search for it on Google. We think that’s an exciting development for Samsung users. See an outfit you like on Instagram? Not sure where you know that actor from? Need help identifying a plant? This feature can help you find answers.
Also following in the footsteps of Google, Samsung has promised seven years of OS and security updates. That gives the S24 series better longevity over any Samsung phone that has come before it, and it means better value for money at a time when plenty of people can’t afford to upgrade their phones every other year. The commitment means Samsung’s support now lasts longer than Apple’s, which is a real boon.
