[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using the Galaxy S25 Ultra for 6 months now and this phone genuinely impresses me. The performance is fast across everything I throw at it, no lag, no hesitation. The camera is the real standout. Whether I'm shooting in low light or capturing fast movement, the results are consistently sharp and detailed. Samsung has clearly refined the computational photography here. Galaxy AI has been a genuinely useful addition to my workflow. The live translation, note summarization, and photo editing AI features aren't just gimmicks. I actually use them. The AI-powered Circle to Search alone saves me time. The S Pen is something I'm still gettingusedto, but I can see the value. Sketching quick diagrams, annotating screenshots, jotting notes without unlocking the phone. It adds a layer of utility. Battery life has been solid. Screen is sharp. The quality feels premium without feeling fragile. If you're on the fence about upgrading, don't be. The S25 Ultra is the most capable phone I've owned.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Makes multitasking for work easy. The split screen feature makes it where i don't have to switch screens to fill out my forms etc. Galaxy AI gives me an overview of my day each morning so I know what i need to get done first thing.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this phone. I'm a college professor and a single mom. I love that i can use it for all of my work apps and reviewing assignments on the go. Also completing that quick signature that the kids forgot to ask about. Most importantly, I love that i can get the best pictures and videos of the kids and vacations. I have TONS of apps and information on this phone. It never glitches and it never slows down.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Only issue I really have is that the battery is not as great as it used to be. I have to constantly charge it at least 2-3 times a day

Love the features, battery and camera!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm so happy I switched from a different brand to Samsung! It has so many more features that I actually use and many people ask me about the features! I like to use the Galaxy AI feature to fix up my photos after I take them like blemeshes or people in the background! The camera is amazing, clear and has amazing zoom. And I love how much I can customize my phone, I get complimented so often about how cute my themes are! The battery lasts so long and it charges so fast! I usually allow my battery to charge over night and it never dies on me during the day! I watch a lot of videos on my phone so I love that I have a lot of watch time without having to hook up my phone to the charger constantly! Amazing phone!

S25 ultra review
on June 18, 2026
Posted by: S25ultraoneworld
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy S25 Ultra is a decent phone, but it hasn't lived up to the expectations I had—especially considering the price.
Coming from a RedMagic 10 Pro phone, the S25 Ultra actually feels slower in day-to-day use. I still notice occasional lag and stuttering in One UI, which is disappointing for a flagship that costs this much.
The 5,000 mAh battery is also smaller than what I was used to, so I find myself charging it more often. Battery life isn't bad, but it's nothing exceptional, especially if you're a power user.
The cameras, display, software support, and overall build quality are excellent, but the overall experience doesn't feel as smooth or as fast as I expected from Samsung's top-tier phone.
Would I buy it again? Probably, but only after lowering my expectations and not paying full price for the phone. It's a good flagship, just not one that justifies its exorbitant price tag. At full retail, I don't think the value is there.

nice phone but connection problems
on June 18, 2026
Posted by: Jim111
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall it is but a good experience. But the Bluetooth is not connect with all the Bluetooth devices in my home and although it is very fast with Wi-Fi, 5G is quite unresponsive. I'm trying to find a way to drop back to 4G. so far I have been unable to do so. I have not used Samsung AI would have to say about that.
The lack of an SD card slot has been frustration. I'm almost sorry I bought the new phone without that ability I hope Samsung will add it back in succeeding versions.
I'm not used Samsung AI so I am unable to comment about that.
On for personal and business. I use it to keep records and access the internet.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Used for daily personal use - phone calls, texting, etc. For AI the main app is Gemini. Photo quality is much better than expected.
