I recently upgraded to the Galaxy S25 Ultra 512GB, and it has genuinely exceeded my expectations in ways I didn’t anticipate. As someone who pays close attention to long term performance and real-world usability, this device has impressed me from day one.
The design feels premium without being flashy, and the balance in the hand is noticeably better than previous models. The display is on another level bright, sharp, and incredibly smooth. What stood out most to me, though, is the camera system. The improvements in low-light performance, clarity, and zoom stability are very real. Photos come out crisp and natural even when I’m shooting quickly.
Performance has been flawless so far. Apps open instantly, multitasking is seamless, and the battery comfortably lasts me through a heavy workday without worry. The extra storage (512GB) was absolutely worth it. I can shoot high-resolution photos and videos without constantly thinking about space.
Overall, this is one of those rare products that feels built for the future, not just for right now. I’m looking forward to seeing how it continues to perform over time, and I’d be happy to share more long-term insights if Samsung ever invites me to provide extended feedback.
Highly recommended for anyone who wants the best Samsung has to offer.
I love the Galaxy series and I've had 6 Galaxy phones before this one. Only my last 2 have had this issue (23 and 25) where I doesn't automatically capitalize. It's weird because the 23 didn't have that issue the whole time. I also wish you could still change the notification sound for apps, not just specific contacts
I would recommend this to a friend!

Flop

I purchased this on pre order. I'll be returning this phone immediately. The phone has extreme overheating issues during charging. It's even overheating not charging or running any background apps while sitting on my couch. The battery also dies ridiculously fast. I'm disappointed because the phone is so expensive but also because I love the design of this phone. I absolutely love the swap back to a flat screen and edges. Hand feel is great. Ive had one of every new Samsung with the exception of 2 since my original s4 and I've never returned one or even been disappointed. Very sad.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The S25 Ultra is the ultimate phone
on February 27, 2025
Posted by: TemptedMouse
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Everything on the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra feels refined. The phone feels fresh and new along with its new features and AI. The AI adapting to your daily routine is seamless and connects perfectly with other apps and Samsung products in my home. The Now brief is so cool and creates a nice addition to my daily routines. I use the AI for weather, calendar events, reminder, smart devices and so much more. The functionality of the pen makes things like note taking or precise edits to documents, images, or mocs so much easier.
