[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I honestly can’t get over how good the S25 Ultra feels in my hand. For years, the Ultra was this huge, boxy brick that dug into your palms, but they finally rounded off the corners just enough to make it comfortable without losing that massive screen. It’s also way lighter than I expected—I don't know how they shaved off that much weight while keeping the titanium build, but my wrists are definitely thanking them. The display is easily the best part. That new anti-reflective glass is a total lifesaver; I can actually see what I’m doing outside without hunting for shade. Everything is just so snappy, too. I’ve been messing with the new AI photo tools and the 50MP ultra-wide lens, and the detail is unreal compared to my old phone. It doesn't just feel like a spec bump; it feels like they actually listened to what people wanted. I’m seriously impressed—it’s easily the most "complete" phone I’ve ever owned.

It's a nice phone, but barely an upgrade from S24

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So, I'll start with the positives. This is a genuinely very nice phone.
It has a brilliant and pixel dense display. The high refresh rate makes everything look so smooth and clear. The gorilla glass version they used is fantastic. My phone has dropped been squished. Rubbed against keys, etc. No marks on it at all. Very nice.
I have played all the most demanding games on the play store and haven't even seen a hiccup let alone any sign that it couldn't handle the processing and graphical demands.
It gets a great score on benchmarking apps. One of the highest rated, like number 8 or something (there are some crazy phones out there that top the list)
The battery lasts at least one full day even with some heavy usage. Sometimes if I'm playing a very high graphics kinda game, it can drain it pretty quick. But even then it doesn't get uncomfortably hot or anything, which is impressive.
Now for the not so great things. This is a severely under performing phone when you consider the vast upgrades they would do for past galaxy phones. This model, and the S26, are barely upgraded.
They made the SPen worse. Removing Bluetooth? Why!?
They put all their effort into jamming as much AI junk into the phone that they could. There are MAYBE two AI features that I actually use. Rarely. It's all gimmicky junk used to artificially fluff up the marketing with claims that its better... It's just bloatware they want you to be happy about. But, I'm not happy about them. It's mostly useles
