A Swing and a MISS...
on January 3, 2026
Posted by: Charlie

I purchased 2 - S25 Ultra, so I get 2 reviews.
I dropped down yet another star on this review and here is why:
Samsung is in such a hurry to pump these out, their quality control is at best sub-par.
I've purchased 2 brand new s25 Ultra (me and wife) and that I can't use the "Hey Google" feature (regardless of Google or Gemini) it does not pick it up by verbal command.
If I have to press the side button to get it to wake up, the whole hands-free approach is just a wash.
Brand new... the price of these phone should suggest PERFECTION. However, it's okay if you only forsake a given % of customers, all else is fine.
So tired of paying premium and getting used quality.
This is why 1 star on this review, 2 stars on the other.
Samsung, step it up. It's only your name your shoving in the mud.
And please, it's a KNOWN problem and yet, no patch, no fix...Just "deal with it."
I don't need to ask a forum, we all know those of us that have the junk phones, we already know. No fix. No patch. Resetting does not work.

SAVE YOUR MONEY!!!....do not waste on this model. S25 ultra is sub-par.

Disappointed
on February 8, 2025
Posted by: Enbybookworm
from Chicago
Expertise:Expert
I love so much about this phone. The display is beautiful, the battery is great, it's faster and stays cooler. However, it loses 2 stars for the pen. I'm part of the (supposed) 1% that used my s pen for air commands. Losing that functionality with my camera, music, and other systems had me strongly considering returning the phone and keeping my s22. I've bought Notes and Ultras for years because of the S pen functions. If I wanted to use a stylus, I'd buy a basic phone and stylus. Also, the pen itself feels cheap, like it'll break in my hand if I just grip it too hard.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Downgrade from S22u. Returning my upgrade. The device is fast but is backwards in advancement. Compared to competitors at this stage, this doesn't deserve the ultra badge. This lost the Bluetooth spen key differentiator.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
