In this fast-paced world, finding a phone that balances performances with features and affordability is a reality few achieve. With a price close to KSh 16,000, the Itel S24 is one of the phones you should consider buying as you search for a new smartphone. In this review, I unveil the main features, strengths, and weaknesses that may arise from using the Itel S24.

Camera Performance: A Standout Feature
The performance of its camera in low light is, however, not that great. Imaged taken could be accepted, however, it can’t be clear and vivid like those in good lighting. The good thing is that the phone is fitted with a front flashlight that considerably enhances low-light selfies.
Battery Life: Built to Last
For any smartphone user, the battery life is the ultimate factor. This is where Itel S24 wins the race. It comes with a 5,000mAh battery that will see you through an entire day of heavy usage, be it browsing the internet, streaming video, or playing video games. You can rest assured that with the Itel S24, you would go through a whole day without having to recharge your phone frequently.
Besides that, the phone comes with a 33 W fast charger to give rapid charges to your phone so that when it really needs to recharge, you are not stuck around a power outlet. This is especially helpful in the case of busy users who need their phones ready in a pinch.
Display: Adequate but Not Exceptional
The Itel S24 uses an LCD screen, common in its class of phones. It doesn’t have the popping colours or true blacks you would get from an AMOLED display, but most users should be well-served by this. For everyday use, it really fits the screen, but the colours are not as accurate as one would expect on higher-end displays.
You might find the display to be a little lacking if you’re someone who requires high colour accuracy—say, a photographer or even a person who watches a lot of video content. The LCD screen works fairly well for social media browsing, reading articles, and chatting with friends.
Performance: Smooth and Reliable
Under the hood, Itel S24 gets powered by the Helio G85 processor, making it a very decent choice on a budget smartphone. It may not hold the same pace as with processors in more expensive devices, but all in all, most of the work is done without causing any hassle. I didn’t quite notice the time when I had some serious lag or the phone was totally unresponsive in my use.
The Itel S24 also comes with 4GB RAM, expandable through virtual RAM, and 128GB internal storage. If you need more space, there is a variant with 256GB going for about KSh 18,000. With this combination of RAM and storage, the smartphone should keep up with multitasking and keep many apps along with huge volumes of photos and videos without causing a bottleneck.
Overall Value: An Excellent Option for Budget-Minded Consumers.
Summary: Itel S24 is a balanced smartphone that returns tons of value for its price. The camera stands out, while the battery life is reliable and performance decent, making it an excellent bargain for any budget-conscious consumer who does not want to make too many compromises on the key features. Admittedly, the display could be more energetic, while the low-light camera performance needs to get better. But these are just minor trade-offs for what otherwise is a solid device.
In the market for an affordable smartphone that delivers on the essentials and then some? The Itel S24 would be a definite go-to. Whether upgrading from an older device or just wanting a good backup phone, the Itel S24 proves to be quite an interesting phone package for the price.
