I had a little buyer's remorse after ordering my new Galaxy S25 Ultra. Viewing some of the comparison reviews between the new release vs. my Galaxy S22 Ultra, I didn't see too much to get excited about. While there are plenty of new features on the S25 Ultra, there was nothing flashy or monumental about the upgrade. Nothing that I couldn't live without. It took about 3 hours to transfer 400+ GB of data from my old phone, but the process was easy and worked flawlessly.
Now that I have the new smartphone in-hand and my data transferred, I'm feeling considerably better about my purchase. I went with the 1TB of storage version. My old phone was maxing out storage. Now I have plenty of space. So that's a big plus. But I think the biggest improvement for me is simply the flat display screen on the S25 Ultra. The S22 Ultra had the significantly rounded edges and I was always launching something unintended as a result of accidental touches. This flat screen really works for me.
So while the new phone isn't a huge upgrade from my old phone -- most of what I do with my phone hasn't changed much. But I do like the new phone. It's subjective, I know, but it just feels good in the hand. I like the design and I'm sure that I will enjoy learning new features that I am unaware of. They gave me a good price for trading in my old phone - so, all-in-all - no regrets. I'm glad that I upgraded.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Samsung Galaxy S25 ultra: The AI-Powered Assistant You Never Knew You Needed
I’ve been using the new Samsung Galaxy S25, and let me tell you—this phone doesn’t just keep up with you; it knows what you need before you do.
Samsung has taken AI to the next level with seamless, real-time responses that make virtual assistants of the past look like they were still buffering. Whether you’re asking for directions, setting reminders, or just debating what to eat for dinner, the S25 answers quickly, accurately, and naturally—it’s basically your personal genius on demand.
But what really sets it apart? The Routines If/Then feature. This lets you automate daily tasks effortlessly. Want your phone to go into Do Not Disturb when you start a workout? Done. Need it to turn on your smart lights when you get home? No problem. It’s like having a personal butler, minus the awkward small talk.
And did I mention hands-free assistance? Just say the word, and your S25 gets things done—texting, calling, setting alarms—without lifting a finger. It’s like living in the future, except it’s happening right now.
Bottom line: If you want a phone that thinks ahead, works flawlessly, and basically becomes your digital sidekick, the Samsung Galaxy S25 is the upgrade you didn’t know you needed.
Now, if only it could fold my laundry too. Maybe next year, Samsung?
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I traded in my Galaxy S23 Ultra for the S25 ultra it's altogether a much nicer phone. Easy to use for everyday tasks. More advanced camera and the Galaxy AI is very helpful. I would highly recommend this phone to anyone. The once the best technology And the easiest to use personal assistant
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The screen on this samsung is amazing, I only use my phone for media and gaming and works perfectly.
I bought this phone recently and I am very disappointed with it, not much different from the S24 Ultra. Staple feature like using the S Pen to take pictures is removed, a feature which I've been using for over 5 years. Really poor choice to have such a useful feature.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As stated, the S25 does have "seamless actions across apps." No issues when switching between or opening apps. Only issues I've had are notifications seem to be delayed or not showing up compared to my A35, as I still have that one connected via wifi. Also, the routines I setup are not running, unless I've entered them incorrectly (first time trying them).
