Unlike most mid-range smartphones that settle for a basic 2MP macro sensor as the third lens, Samsung has equipped the S24 FE with a more useful 8MP telephoto lens that not only provides depth data for portrait shots, but also enables 3x optical zoom.

Trade-in options are available here, although the top-tier Galaxy S24 Ultra is not listed as an option. The highest value Samsung is for the Z Fold 5 at £480, with similar prices for Google and Apple devices on offer.

The Galaxy S24 featured a 6.2-inch screen, a slight increase from the 6.1-inch display on the Galaxy S23, with Samsung shrinking the bezels to add more screen space. Rumors tip the Galaxy S25 to have a 6.36 display which would match the size of the iPhone 16 Pro panel. Such a move could increase the size of the Galaxy S25 over the Galaxy S24

Go with the Pixel 8a if you want a compact budget flagship, or the Galaxy S24 FE if you want a larger, more powerful device
