Android phone fan? Not into Google’s Pixel phones? Well, we have good news: Samsung has discounted the majority of its Galaxy S24 lineup as part of the final day of Amazon’s October Prime Day sale — but these enticing prices are only expected to last a few more hours. The deals bring the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra down to $998, which is 23 percent off the jumbo-sized phone’s list price and about $100 off its street price on Amazon in recent months. If the premium path isn’t your style, the Galaxy S24+ is also on sale for $750, while the standard Galaxy S24 is on sale for $600.
One important note: While the specs and screen sizes here often meet or exceed that of the newer Galaxy S24 FE, that model’s $649 price is currently deferred by inclusion of your choice of a $100 Amazon gift card and the option to add the Galaxy Buds FE headphones for just $50 more.
We’ll quickly run through each offer below.

This is a particularly nice price cut for the Galaxy S24 Ultra, which has a list price of $1,300. That means you can keep an extra $300 compared to buying from Samsung directly and walk away with one of our top Android phones of 2024. The Ultra impressed us with the upgraded titanium frame, improved display and camera options, and AI capabilities that offered function as well as flash. Its performance from a new Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC offered a 30 to 35 percent spike over the previous year’s chip. One of the only downsides our review found was the price tag, so a sale like Prime Day is a great time to snap up something from the higher end of the Samsung line.

This Prime Day deal can save you $250 on the Galaxy S24+, which normally costs $1,000. The S24+ was expected to be a minor iteration on the Samsung product line, but this mid-range option provided a solid experience for customers who aren’t interested in shelling out for the bleeding-edge features on top-flight, premium end of phone models. This models had respectable performance speeds in our tests, boasted a Quad HD+ screen and offered notably long battery life. The specs may not blow your mind, but it still showcased the possibilities of Samsung’s Galaxy AI suite.

Sometimes, you want to keep it simple. The introductory Galaxy S24 model is getting a $200 discount on its $800 baseline package for Prime Day. Like the S24+, this phone probably isn’t going to be a conversation starter, but it’s a solid choice for a workhorse device that gets daily use. And like its mid-range counterpart, the S24 packed solid battery performance into its 6.2-inch frame and it has a Full HD+ screen.
