I love so much about this phone. The display is beautiful, the battery is great, it's faster and stays cooler. However, it loses 2 stars for the pen. I'm part of the (supposed) 1% that used my s pen for air commands. Losing that functionality with my camera, music, and other systems had me strongly considering returning the phone and keeping my s22. I've bought Notes and Ultras for years because of the S pen functions. If I wanted to use a stylus, I'd buy a basic phone and stylus. Also, the pen itself feels cheap, like it'll break in my hand if I just grip it too hard.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Loving the new device compared to my old phone. Had the fold3 5g before and liked it but the camera on this s25 ultra and night and day compared to it.. now brief system on new phone is a great feature as well. And the option for audio eraser as well for videos
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love how smoothly this phone operates. I love the new Now Brief feature and the audio eraser is amazing also.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall it's amazing. Camera, speed, battery, all incredible The only thing is fast charging 2.0. It repeatedly continues unplugging by himself. The only way I have to charge it is turning it off. Tried everything, the matter is fast charging. I think with a software update it will fix, because it doesn't happen with the device turned off
