However, minor differences are magnified when phones are close in performance and price, and personal preferences tip the scales. If you're wondering how to spend the $1,300 burning a hole in your pocket, the Pixel 9 Pro XL and Galaxy S24 Ultra are among the best options. I've had both by my side for a week. Here's what you need to know.

Now, respected source MysteryLupin has suggested that the price for the 8/128 model will be €749 and the 8/256 model for €809. This is still €50 more than the Galaxy S23 Fan Edition, but this price rise would be less than the price rise between the Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S24.

One such deal that's caught our eye is the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, which is available with either a massive trade-in rebate of up to $750 off, or an upfront discount of $300. Both of these deals are available alongside a free storage upgrade so there's some serious value on offer here.

In this iPhone 16 Pro Max vs Galaxy S24 Ultra comparison, find out whether Apple or Samsung deserves your 2024 flagship phone purchase.

The best deals are reserved for the new (ish) Galaxy Z Fold 6, Galaxy S24 and Galaxy Tab S9 series. For the Galaxy Z Fold 6, Samsung is offering up to $1300 in trade-in value for your old phone.
