Samsung Galaxy S24+ at Cdiscount: flagship phone for around €395

Many users are tempted by a flagship phone but balk at the usual price tag of more than €800. That is exactly what makes the Samsung Galaxy S24+ particularly interesting: the model, launched in early 2024, is currently listed at a remarkably low price by Cdiscount, while still offering a large display, powerful hardware and long battery life.

Galaxy S24+ at Cdiscount: why this deal stands out

The Galaxy S24+ would normally sit firmly in the premium segment. At the time of the promotion, Cdiscount is offering the handset for around €394.56. This places its price closer to the upper mid-range, despite it delivering many flagship-level features.

Galaxy S24+ for just under €395: a flagship device at a price point where compromises are often required.

The retailer goes a step further by allowing payment in four instalments by credit card. This will appeal to buyers who do not want to spend almost €400 in one go but still want a current, capable smartphone.

• Price at the time of the promotion: approx. €394.56
• Model year: early 2024
• Payment in four instalments available
• Target group: users seeking flagship technology at a mid-range price

The offer therefore presents a clear alternative to many newly launched mid-range phones at similar prices, which cannot always match it in areas such as display quality, camera performance or software support.

Large 6.7-inch display for work and streaming

At the centre of the Galaxy S24+ is its 6.7-inch display. Its generous diagonal is especially useful for anyone spending extended periods on their phone, whether they are handling emails, spreadsheets and presentations or watching a box set on the sofa.

The expansive screen makes reading easier, cuts down on scrolling through chats and feeds, and provides a clearer view in videos and games. The format is particularly convenient for users who regularly move between work-related and personal content.

The 6.7-inch panel is clearly aimed at people who use their smartphone not merely in short bursts, but as a constant everyday companion.

Its high resolution and modern panel technology keep text crisp and content vivid. Social media, navigation and documents all benefit from the large usable area. For many buyers, this is the key difference compared with cheaper phones featuring smaller or less capable displays.

Battery and storage: everyday use without constant recharging

Samsung equips the S24+ with a 4,900 mAh battery. With typical use, this will generally last a full day in practice, often with some charge remaining. Anyone who is not continually streaming videos on the train or gaming for hours should get comfortably beyond the end of the working day.

Internal storage totals 256 GB. This is now a capacity at which most people no longer need to clear space every day. Years of chat histories, countless photos and clips, several streaming apps, games and office tools will not fill the storage as quickly as they would on cheaper 128 GB models.

• Battery: 4,900 mAh for typical daily use
• Storage: 256 GB internal, sufficient for photos, videos and apps
• Designed as a main device for work and leisure

This combination is especially appealing to people who rely on their smartphone as their only everyday digital device: there is no daily battery anxiety and no constant need to move pictures to the cloud.

Performance: flagship power for apps and games

With its processor and remaining hardware, the Galaxy S24+ is built for smooth work and gaming. Apps open quickly, and multitasking remains free from noticeable stuttering even when several applications are running at once.

People who frequently switch between email, video calls, a browser, messaging and the camera will quickly notice that this is not an entry-level handset. Many current mobile games also run smoothly, without graphical hiccups or lengthy loading times.

The S24+ is aimed at users who want a noticeable performance advantage over a typical €300 mid-range phone without spending a four-figure sum.

Another benefit is the expected software update support. Samsung is now among the manufacturers that provide its flagship models with new Android versions and security patches for a comparatively long period. Buyers who take advantage of the reduced price now will therefore receive a device that should remain technically current for several more years.

Galaxy S24+ camera: 50 megapixels for everyday shots and more

The main camera has a 50-megapixel resolution and is intended to produce sharp, detailed images. For everyday photography, the automatic settings will usually be enough to capture successful photos of family, a walk around town or a restaurant visit.

Even in lower light, the software helps ensure subjects can still be captured to a usable standard. A smartphone does not replace professional equipment, of course, but for social media, memorable photos and quick snapshots, the S24+ offers substantially more than many older or more basic devices.

Feature	Galaxy S24+
Main camera	50 megapixels, versatile for everyday use
Use	Daytime and evening photos, social media, snapshots
Video	Suitable for everyday clips and short-form content

Anyone who likes filming while out and about, for example for Reels or short YouTube clips, benefits from stable footage and respectable image quality. The S24+ can therefore serve as a starting point for many content creators who are only just beginning.

Repairability: 8.5 out of 10 as a sign of longevity

Repairability is one consideration that is often overlooked when buying a new device. The Galaxy S24+ has a repairability index of 8.5 out of 10, which is comparatively high. This indicates that, if a fault occurs, repairs have a good chance of being both feasible and financially worthwhile.

Anyone intending to use their smartphone for several years benefits from more accessible internal components and the availability of spare parts.

With electronics prices rising, many users are rethinking their approach: it is preferable to buy a device that can be repaired after a broken screen or a weakening battery in a few years' time, rather than having to reach immediately for the next phone.

Who the Cdiscount offer is really worthwhile for

The current offer appeals to several types of buyer. Firstly, there are users who would previously have chosen an upper mid-range device and can now get a flagship handset for a similar price. It also suits anyone who benefits from the large display, such as heavy typists, commuters and people with mildly impaired eyesight.

Those using their smartphone as a work tool, whether in field sales, working from home or as a “mini laptop” on business trips, also get a fast, long-lasting device in the S24+ that handles presentations, office documents and video calls well.

• Heavy users focused on display and battery life
• Casual gamers looking for smooth performance
• Professional users who need a dependable work device
• Price-conscious buyers seeking cheaper flagship technology

What buyers should still consider

Anyone considering a purchase should look beyond the price alone and keep a few points in mind. Promotions may be time-limited, and stock can sometimes be restricted. When ordering, it is worth checking carefully that the desired version is being purchased and reviewing the delivery terms.

Reviewing personal usage habits can also help. People who rarely take photos, use few apps and mainly make calls do not necessarily need a phone such as the S24+. In those situations, a simpler model is often sufficient. However, anyone who works, streams, takes photos or plays games extensively on their phone will make far better use of the Galaxy S24+'s strengths.

Security and convenience features such as a fingerprint sensor, face unlock and integrated privacy settings are another consideration. Anyone keeping professional data on the device should actively use these functions. Modern flagship smartphones such as the S24+ generally provide a considerably higher standard in this area than older or very inexpensive handsets.
