Description
This used Samsung S24 Ultra 5G 256GB Black is for buyers who want a phone that can handle far more than everyday calls and messages. Graded Excellent, it is a premium Samsung Ultra model with a large QHD+ display, built-in S Pen, advanced camera system, Galaxy AI-focused features, 5G and 256GB storage.
Used Samsung S24 Ultra 5G 256GB Black – Excellent Condition
The Used Samsung S24 Ultra 5G 256GB Black is aimed at people who use their phone as a camera, work tool, entertainment screen and everyday device. It is a strong choice if you take regular photos, record video, use maps heavily, edit documents, write notes, stream content or want Samsung’s most complete S24 experience without paying brand-new pricing.
This is not the model most buyers choose just for basic use. The S24 Ultra makes more sense if you actually benefit from the larger display, S Pen, stronger camera setup and premium build. If you want a smaller phone, the standard Samsung S24 5G may be easier to live with. If you want a large screen but do not need the S Pen or Ultra camera system, the Samsung S24 Plus 5G may be the better-value option.
The Black finish gives the phone a smart, professional look. It suits buyers who want a high-end Samsung that feels understated rather than flashy, and it pairs easily with protective cases.

Who Usually Looks for the Samsung S24 Ultra?
The Samsung S24 Ultra is usually searched for by buyers who already know they want a high-end Samsung phone. They are often comparing it with the S23 Ultra, S25 Ultra or iPhone Pro Max models, and they want to know whether the refurbished saving makes sense.
This model is especially well suited to:
- buyers who want Samsung’s premium Ultra experience for less
- people who take lots of photos or videos
- users who want the built-in S Pen for notes, forms, editing or work use
- buyers who prefer a large display for streaming, reading, maps and multitasking
- Samsung users upgrading from an S20 Ultra, S21 Ultra, S22 Ultra or S23 Ultra
- people comparing Android flagship phones against iPhone Pro Max models
- buyers who want 256GB storage rather than the lowest storage option
Why Choose the S24 Ultra Over a Standard Samsung?
The main reason to choose the S24 Ultra is that it gives you Samsung’s most complete S24 feature set. The large screen is better for watching video, editing photos, reading documents, checking maps and typing longer messages. The S Pen adds a practical difference if you make notes, sign documents, sketch, mark up screenshots or prefer precise control on the screen.
The camera system is another major reason buyers choose this phone. The S24 Ultra is better suited to people who care about photo flexibility, zoom, detail and video use than a standard Samsung model. If the camera is one of the main reasons you are upgrading, the Ultra is usually the model that makes the most sense.
For lighter use, the standard S24 or S24 Plus may be easier to justify. For heavier users, the Ultra gives you the extra tools that make it feel more like a complete daily device.
Real-World Experience
In everyday use, the Samsung S24 Ultra feels like a phone made for people who spend a lot of time on their device. The screen gives you room to work, watch, browse and edit without feeling cramped. It is especially useful if you often switch between apps or use your phone instead of a tablet for quick tasks.
The Black finish gives a strong first impression when unboxed. It looks premium without drawing too much attention, and it suits buyers who want a phone that feels appropriate for both personal and work use.
The 256GB storage also fits the way many Ultra buyers use their phones. Photos, high-resolution video, downloaded films, offline maps, work files and apps can build up quickly, so having more built-in space gives the phone more breathing room over time.
Technician Review
Our technicians treat the Samsung S24 Ultra differently from a standard phone because the value is tied to several key features: the screen, camera system, S Pen, battery and charging. A small cosmetic mark may not affect daily use, but a display issue, weak battery, unstable charging port or S Pen fault would matter much more on this model.
Before dispatch, we check the screen response, display quality, USB-C charging stability, camera performance, S Pen function, speakers, microphones, buttons, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, mobile signal and battery condition.
On Ultra models, we pay particular attention to the display and camera lenses. Buyers often choose this phone for media, photography and productivity, so those areas need to be right. Excellent condition tells you the phone presents well cosmetically, but functional testing is what confirms it is ready for proper everyday use.
Is 256GB Enough for the Samsung S24 Ultra?
For most buyers, 256GB is a strong storage size on the Samsung S24 Ultra. It gives room for apps, photos, video, downloads, documents and offline content without feeling as restrictive as lower-capacity models.
If you record lots of high-resolution video, store large work files or keep a huge media library on your phone, a higher-storage version may still be worth considering when available. For most everyday and heavy users, though, 256GB is a sensible balance between storage and price.
Excellent Condition Explained

Samsung S24 Ultra vs S23 Ultra
The Samsung S23 Ultra 5G is still a strong option if value is your main priority and the saving is clear. It also gives you a large display, S Pen support and strong camera hardware.
The Samsung S24 Ultra 5G makes more sense if you want the newer Ultra generation, Galaxy AI-focused features and a longer remaining ownership window. If the price gap is reasonable, many buyers will find the S24 Ultra easier to justify for longer-term use.
Samsung S24 Ultra vs S25 Ultra
The Samsung S25 Ultra 5G is the model to compare if you want the newest Samsung Ultra available refurbished.
This Samsung S24 Ultra 5G 256GB Black can be the better choice if you want a premium Ultra phone but the saving compared with the S25 Ultra is meaningful. It still offers a large high-end display, S Pen, strong cameras, 5G, USB-C and modern Samsung software features.
