In summary: Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, 16 GB RAM, 512 GB storage; 6.73-inch LTPO AMOLED 120 Hz display; quad-50MP Leica cameras (main + ultra-wide + telephoto + periscope); 32 MP front camera; ~5000 mAh battery; 90W wired and 80W wireless charging; premium materials and flagship-level extras.
It is, if you prioritise camera performance (especially photography / zoom), want top-end hardware and flagship features, and are okay paying a premium price. For users less concerned with camera excellence or who want value at lower price points, there are less expensive options that trade off some features. Whether it is worth it depends on your individual priorities: camera, charging, display, build, etc.
The S24 Ultra is a direct competitor. Some differences: Samsung often brings more zoom capability (optical zoom), strong software/features around AI and productivity, possibly better update promises.
Xiaomi 14 Ultra may have an edge in pure imaging (Leica optics, consistent 50 MP sensors), charging speed (especially wireless), and display brightness.
If your priority is photography, fast charging, or display, Xiaomi may be very attractive; if you care more about ecosystem, software support, or specific features (e.g. note-taking, stylus, etc.), S24 Ultra might win out.
Only one storage variant (16 GB + 512 GB) was officially launched in India, with colours including Black and White.
