The itel S24’s main charm is its ISOCELL sensor, capable of capturing moments at various scenes that other budget phones can’t do.
The itel S24 is the latest arrival from the brand. Although it’s a budget-friendly offering, it has a great feature that’ll likely lure buyers.

Moving over to the specials, the smartphone can capture moments under various lighting conditions, thanks to the 108 MP main camera. It’s powered by the Samsung ISOCELL HM6 sensor with f/1.6 aperture and 1.92 µm fusion pixel.
According to itel, the sensor features Nonapixel Plus technology that merges nine pixels at once to yield clear pictures shot at night scenes. It also sports 3x in-sensor zoom to let you get close-ups without detail loss.
On the software side, the camera enables creative imaging with filters and Portrait mode. You can also enhance portrait shots with AI beauty algorithms.
