Samsung released three S24 variants in January 2024, each with distinct screen specifications:
| Spec | S24 | S24+ | S24 Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|
| Screen size | 6.2" | 6.7" | 6.8" |
| Resolution | FHD+ (1080p) | QHD+ (1440p) | QHD+ (1440p) |
| Edges | Flat | Flat | Curved |
| S Pen | No | No | Yes (built-in) |
| Peak brightness | 2,600 nits | 2,600 nits | 2,600 nits |
| Repair cost | £289 | £329 | £379 |
Dynamic AMOLED 2X Technology
All S24 models use Samsung's Dynamic AMOLED 2X displays - the same technology Samsung supplies to other phone manufacturers, including Apple for iPhone Pro models.
Key Features
- 120Hz adaptive refresh: Adjusts between 1-120Hz for smoothness or battery saving
- Vision Booster: Enhances outdoor visibility up to 2,600 nits
- HDR10+: High dynamic range for video content
- Always-On Display: Low-power clock and notifications
- Ultrasonic fingerprint: Under-display biometric sensor
Why S24 Screens Can't Be Faked
The ultrasonic fingerprint sensor is integrated directly into the display assembly. Aftermarket screens use optical sensors that are slower, less accurate, and don't work through screen protectors. It's immediately noticeable.

Repair vs Trade-In Value
Should you repair or trade in for a new phone? Here's the maths:
| Model | Repair Cost | Trade-in (cracked) | Trade-in (working) |
|---|---|---|---|
| S24 Ultra | £379 | £200-300 | £500-600 |
| S24+ | £329 | £150-250 | £400-500 |
| S24 | £289 | £100-200 | £350-450 |
Repairing typically adds £150-300 to your trade-in value - meaning if you plan to sell or trade in, repair first. If keeping the phone, repair pays for itself over continued use.
Why Genuine Screens Matter for S24
The S24's advanced display technology means genuine screens are even more important than on older models:
- Fingerprint sensor: Genuine = ultrasonic (works through protectors), aftermarket = optical (doesn't)
- Peak brightness: 2,600 nits vs ~1,500 nits aftermarket
- Colour accuracy: Factory calibrated vs noticeably different
- Refresh rate: Smooth 1-120Hz adaptive vs fixed or stuttering
The Repair Process
- Assessment (5 min): We confirm the damage and check for other issues
- Screen removal (20 min): Careful heating and separation from frame
- Cleaning (10 min): Frame preparation and adhesive residue removal
- Installation (20 min): Genuine Samsung screen fitted with new adhesive
- Testing (15 min): Display, touch, fingerprint, and all features verified

Total time: 60-90 minutes for most S24 repairs.
