Great Phone, With One Major Pain Point
on April 14, 2026
Posted by: PeriPerry
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I picked up my Galaxy S25 Ultra in late 2025. Coming from a normal S23, the switch between the two was the least wowing of any move from phone to phone I've ever had. It's not a bad thing, it's just that phone development is nowadays more centered on refinement than revolution. The S25 Ultra is certainly a refined phone. Despite not using a case for around 5 months, I've yet to scratch the screen, or the back of the phone. The chassis does have a couple scuffs from sharp metal, so those can be forgiven. What's less forgivable, however, is some of the Galaxy AI integration. I like circle to search, or audio eraser, but I haven't needed them outside of once or twice. Galaxy AI has made itself known with the camera. The hardware for the cameras is great. The AI "enhancement" of photos, on the other hand, is by far my biggest gripe with this phone. Any photo you take has an AI filter laid on it that messes with the color grading and the sharpness of any photo you take. I paint cars for iRacing. If I'm recreating a car from real life, I need to reference far-away photos for small logos. This filter smooths those small details, making reading small text sometimes impossible. This can't even be fixed by using Samsung's own Expert RAW app to take RAW photos. Those get the filter too. It's a very specific-to-me issue, but an issue nonetheless. The S25 Ultra has many good features, like the S-Pen and its quick note-taking, but I've run out of space for them. It is worth the money.

The Hardware great, except backwards with S-pen
on April 15, 2026
Posted by: UltraFan
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Better processor, better cameras awesome display. Why take features away from S-pen. Charger there with no Bluetooth features which made the Ultra. No Samsung is doing away with messaging software. Can we go forward without going backwards.

This phone works seamlessly especially with newtec

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my s twenty five ultra to play call of duty, stream paramount plus, peacock dish on demand, amazon prime video, and i'm still exploring my galaxy ai, bixby service. My phone does all of this very smooth and without any complications. The u s b c port allows me to connect to my t v to play call of duty with a quick enough refresh rate to have a limited amount of lag so I don't have to pay for a whole entire gaming system because call of duty on mobile is free

First Samsung Phone S25 Ultra
on April 18, 2026
Posted by: Gals25ultra1
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My first Samsung Galaxy phone has impressed me! I wasn't sure if it would be able to handle my usage. Answer: Yes it does!! I thought going from Motorola Android to Samsung Android would be more difficult. I've had to learn the little nuisances of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra Android layouts, but the set-up has been seamless.
The only part of the phone that concerns me are the cameras not being recessed. Even with my concern, this phone takes excellent photos! There are so many ways to modify the photo, especially for people with disabilities. Your arms and fingers may be twitching, and SAMSUNG PHOTO EDITING TO THE RESCUE!!
EXCELLENT GALAXY S25 ULTRA PHONE

Worst Camera as an Hardware
on April 22, 2026
Posted by: Caspianking
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have loved Samsung Galaxy products since I bought my fist Samsung Note 9 long time ago. Now, I have Galaxy devices since Samsung introduced Galaxy devices. I have known to take great photos in my friends and family. But, after my Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra camera started giving me issues I have stopped taking pictures at all. And, it started all of sudden and it was embarrassing to see. Samsung asked me to take this phone to thier hardware shop but didn't tell me how much it will cost !! What will i do without phone??
Other than camera the phone is ok. I have used their Galaxy Ai photo app to create sketches of my family.

Love this thing
on April 28, 2026
Posted by: CuspOfChaos
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this phone. The display is large and the the AI feature makes life so much easier. With Gemini I can see my previous chats quickly and easily. I used to have to search over and over again just to find the same answer I found once before by just using the web browser but with Gemini I can just go back to that previous search and retrieve the answer I received before to avoid confusion and unnecessary headaches. The camera is amazing and I LOVE taking close up detailed pictures of the moon. The only thing I miss about my s24 is the picture taking capability via the s pen. I feel like I can find a new feature every day with this device so it more than makes up for that feature.

Phone is Amazing so light and useful.
on April 28, 2026
Posted by: Lobus007
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The phone has always been reliable. I've never had any issues with it shutting down or any issues with the software or the apps I run on it. It's a very reliable phone. I've had it for years. And it is very tough, dropped. It multiple times and it still does well.No cracks no damage.
