Yes it would be a big upgrade.
Can grab the S24+ for £499 and free buds, if you can stretch another £200 then get the S24U at £699 with free watch. This is with any broken phone trade in, might be even cheaper trading in S10+.

Guys, is 'Super Charge' the fastest means of charging the 24 series? - as in what displays on screen when you connect a charger.
Thanks.
Thanks.

I thought it was Fast Charge 2.0 when you plug in a suitable 45w charger.
Only on the plus and ultra. Reg s24 only does 25W SFC.

Supercharge 2 comes up on my ultra, got an Anker charger for £17.

My second order for an s24 ultra was randomly cancelled, no idea why but loads of others had theirs cancelled as well while some went through fine. Re-ordered and it went through, just received it today. Cost me £899 but I've just applied for the £200 cashback so comes to £699 and it came with a free watch6. Will be trading in a broken iphone 4 which cost me £10, I've posted that off today as well. Phones been sold I've basically got a free watch6 out of it.

Just ordered the S24 Ultra like others, traded in my S21 Ultra which gave me a few notifications of degrading battery. Also comes with the free watch 6 £794.84, will see if it gets cancelled or not, also tried to get cashback with top cashback as well, so will see what comes of that and the cashback offer

Is that what it actually says on screen when you connect a charger?
Super Fast Charge 2.0

I'll have to check mine then, I've got a 100w rated USB cable and a 65w UGreen charger and I'm pretty sure I don't see that - I thought it just said Fast Charging.
Yeah that charger won't do bud. Needs to support PPS 45W standard for SFC 2.0. Or 25W PPS which is SFC 1.0.
Soldato
Thanks for the clarification, appreciated. Any supported charger recommendations?

This one will do.
I've not come across a. Multi port one that does 45W. The Aukey one I have is discontinued.
45W USB C Charger, Anker PPS Fast Charger with Cable, Laptop Compatible, Super Fast Charging 2.0 for Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra/S24/S23+/Note20, iPhone, Pixel, and More (5 ft USB C to C Cable Included) https://amzn.eu/d/0duVzmjG
Fast charging means around 15 to 20W.

Thanks mate! That's the thing isn't it, we're all so used to a multi-port - charging my watch, tab, controllers etc. A single port now seems like a step back. I would like the extra speed though
To be honest the 45W is not massively faster vs the 25W PPS beacuse it doesn't charge at peak wattage for long enough to make a marked difference.Thanks mate!

This one does 25W PPS, has loads of ports and is a little bargain...

I did see that on Hot Deals - does it have the standards that Samsung uses the yeah?To be honest the 45W is not massively faster vs the 25W PPS beacuse it doesn't charge at peak wattage for long enough to make a marked difference.

This is what I currently use
Yes it has the super fast charge 1.0, but not 2.0.
So 25W not 45W.
You're one supports PPS 25W too. Make sure you're using the correct port. Try port 1 or 2.
