I've had my s25 ultra for at least 7 months now. I will say that im not that impressed with it so far. It now charges so slow it takes over 2 1/2 hrs. The camera is in my opinion worse then the s23 ultra. Especially at night. The screen is not as bright and vibrant as they claim it to be. I had to take the screen protector off because it was so hard to see. Even with the brightness at max with extra brightness on. But now I have to keep the brightness really low because it won't charge and the phone heats up really bad. I have to put it in the freezer sometimes. Personally I think they really need to focus on quality instead of quantity. Because taking the same platform and making a few changes to the software, then putting it in a new shell isn't working. Make sure when you claim the phone has a 200 mega pixel and 100x zoom, that it actually works and doesn't look so terrible. Maybe people would buy more phones instead of buying a phone that is far superior camera wise.

Definitely the best design on a smart phone. Lots of tech features which i use almost them all. Still catching up on the AI. Only issue is sometimes it chugs (slows), and sometimes it overheats. I have a feeling its just my device. Also the 3x camera needs a Mega-pixel boost. I absolutely love love the 5x camera and the ofcourse the main. I hope by the s27 there is at least around 50MP on each camera. Now smartphones are still phones. So Google and samsung working together has work really well but I wish boxy was combined with gemini I really miss the device control.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Now lets start off with the phone its made out of titanium, has a 200 megapixel camera with a 100x zoom and has an amazing amount of battery. I had bought this phone for my dad and he had the 23 Ultra and he loved it but I upgraded him to the 25 series because of Galaxy AI. The live translate feature in both texts and calls are his favorite things since he uses them for his business and instead of calling me for help on his phone he just uses gemini for his questions. At first he was hesitant but once I showed him how it works he loves it and uses it everyday. On top of that I have just recently got him the Galaxy Watch 8 another upgrade from is watch 4. So far he loves both devices and loves the fact that both are super responsive and don't take a long time to do what he needs to do.
Traded in my S21 Ultra 512 for it. The processor and graphics in it are fantastic and an upgrade from my previous phone. I'm still learning all that I can do with the stylus.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Galaxy AI is great. I love how fast is the device. So far so good I like the interface and how is easy to use.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The ai in this phone is super cool, not only are my pictures better, but ai works as an assistant to help me preform tasks almost effortlessly. Also game play is sick on the 25, and video... this phone is a beast!!!
I should have switched to Samsung a long time ago, I love love love this phone! Samsung has improved so much since last time I owned one. If you're stuck on deciding to switch like I was, I can tell you it's definitely worth it!
