The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is the best Samsung phone yet. With awesome Ai features and great battery life, and Titanium body, you can't go wrong! The only downside is that the S-pen isn't Bluetooth capable anymore. I love to use the air features on the S-pen, Samsung please bring back. Overall the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra the best Galaxy phone and I would definitely recommend it!
I would recommend this to a friend!

🌟 A Stellar Experience with the Galaxy S21 Ultra!
on May 31, 2025
Posted by: Dedrick
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] for a while now, and honestly, it's like having a little piece of the future in my hand. From the moment I picked it up, I was blown away by its sleek design and the richness of its display — the 6.8-inch Dynamic AMOLED screen is absolutely stunning. Colors are vibrant, blacks are deep, and everything feels buttery smooth thanks to the 120Hz refresh rate.
The camera system? Oh wow. It’s nothing short of magical. Whether I’m capturing a sunset, zooming in on the moon (yes, the moon!), or just snapping casual moments with friends, the photos come out crisp, detailed, and beautiful. The 108MP main sensor and the powerful zoom lenses make it feel like I’m carrying a professional camera in my pocket.

25 ULTRA DOWNGRADED
on May 30, 2025
Posted by: SCRUFF
Expertise:Expert
I cannot willingly recommend the Galaxy S25 Ultra. Although I upgraded from the Note 9 and recognize the obvious improvements, the simple fact is that this phone has been consciously downgraded in several key areas.
Let me start with the lack of a Bluetooth S Pen. That feature was standard even on my old Note 9. How does an "upgrade" lose features?
Next, there’s no MagSafe-style capability. Despite all the advancements in fast charging, Samsung has now chosen not to include a charging brick, and the included charging cable with the S25 Ultra is incredibly short. It no longer reaches from the wall to my chair, whereas all previous cables did.
Also—though this has been the case for a few releases—it still baffles me: with over 95% of the population being right-handed, why on earth is the S Pen stored on the left side of the phone? It’s an incredibly poor design choice from a usability standpoint.
There’s no memory card slot, and the earlier removal of the LED notification indicator remains a downgrade in my opinion.
Samsung has not listened to its customer base, and it shows.
I will be returning this phone immediately. While I purchased it through my carrier, I wanted Samsung to see this review as well. I highly doubt I’ll return to this manufacturer.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I love this phone

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This phone is amazing. I use the S Pen almost daily in my job as a contractor. It makes it easy to draw up sketches and do quick math. The camera works well in low light and makes it easy to take pictures and upload them for quotes and bids.

Disappointed After 10+ Years with Samsung
on May 30, 2025
Posted by: Anonymous

I've been a loyal Samsung user for over 10 years, but the Galaxy S25 Ultra is the last straw. The camera is a massive downgrade. The S22 — and especially the S23 — performed much better. On the S25, the autofocus constantly struggles: it randomly shifts focus points, often locks onto the wrong subject, and forces you to dig through forums just to get a decent dual-plane shot. To get anything usable, you have to switch to the ultra-wide lens or Pro mode — it's ridiculous.
The camera takes forever to launch. Anything in motion is a blurry mess. The photos look flat, dull, and lifeless. Even the 10x zoom on my S21 Ultra — which is nearly five years old — is better than this. I’ve actually started carrying my old Samsung phone just to take proper pictures. That alone is incredibly frustrating and disappointing.
A phone should be enjoyable to use, not an obstacle every time you want to take a photo. No matter how good the rest of the phone is, the camera ruins the experience. Huge letdown.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
