So far so good. Been using Samsung phones for the past 3 years and have had this particular phone for almost a month. Battery life is great. I can go almost an entire day without needing to recharge when using it for light work such as messaging, email, scrolling through FB, playing puzzle games or even listening to music.
No issue with the transfer of important information such as contact info or calendar reminders but wished all my apps and data were transferable. Unfortunately, due to either phone or app developer reatrictions my app was transferable but not the data and needed to be manually re-inputted. When checking emails there does seems to be a small time lapse in which it needs to completely open its contents when transitioning and opening the next email.
Additionally, the volume for when listening to a caller without the use of a speaker is very low even with the adjustment which makes it difficult to hear a conversation when out in public.
So, if you're looking for something with a long battery life suitable for picture taking and basic usage such as calls, messaging and scrolling this phone is a good prospect to consider.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is very easy to navigate. I love the fact that the screen is way bigger than my old phone. The upload of games and updates is insanely fast. Overall I am going to have to give the phone a 2 thumbs up.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The phone is really fast. I love the stylus and all the features with it and Galaxy AI is really cool with Gemini from Google as well. The camera has a lot of cool filters and options to edit pictures and there's a lot of different gestures you can use to do different things in the phone.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I took some pictures and changed them under the AI feature and that was fun for our family pics. We also used other devices to stream and shoot some really cool videos. The sound quality and picture quality is amazing. This device has a lot of features that makes using this phone so convenient.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The AI thing in the Samsung browser is the one that I mostly use, I like a lot the reviews from news that I get from full articles, in my line of work I find that very useful.
Also the AI for the photos works very very good, I've tried this on photos to erase myself from photos to show some properties and works like a charm. As well as I can use to retouch some family photos.
The battery is also an upgrade from my s24u, so I like that as well. You could say Iam a Sammy boy, I tried iphones but I don't get the hang of the ecosystem, so I have had all sorts of phones from Samsung from the S3, to now that I have in my desk fold 3, fold 5, s24u and s25u, as well as a watch 6 classic.
Very good products, still there is always room for improvement but, I like the Samsung products better
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung S25 Ultra meets all my expectations. The phone has AI features that help users complete their tasks quickly. For example, it helped me summarize what a document wanted to say, it also helped me with my sleep routines, and it also translated calls. My S25 Ultra met everything I needed for my daily life, such as a good battery capacity with 5,000 mAh, it also has a large RAM capacity. 12GB is the perfect amount to support multiple tasks at once, and it also has a super-fast processor that helps keep the device from slowing down even when the battery is low. Finally, the phone has a good 200MP camera, which helps capture good images.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the phone the camera quality is amazing the phone is pretty amazing that's the battery life is absolutely terrible in 2 hours it's dropped 30%

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This phone is amazing. The display is bright and clear. The camera is phenomenal. All the features and the clarity of the pictures and video is the best I have seen on a cellphone. Samsung really set the bar high with this one.
