[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been a loyal Galaxy user for the past five years, and the S25 Ultra has exceeded my expectations. Its refined design, with smoother edges and a comfortable grip, makes it a joy to hold and use. The performance is seamless, thanks to the powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, which handles multitasking effortlessly. The AI features are impressive, enhancing the overall user experience. The battery life is also commendable, lasting well over a day with moderate use. Overall, the S25 Ultra is a testament to Samsung's commitment to delivering a reliable and powerful smartphone experience.
I recently got the Galaxy Buds 3, and I'm loving how seamlessly I can control them using AI features. The Galaxy AI integration allows for adaptive sound adjustments based on how I wear the earbuds, enhancing my music experience. The Real-Time Interpreter feature is also incredibly useful, providing live translations directly into my earbuds when paired with my Samsung phone. This has been a game-changer for conversations in different languages. Overall, the AI capabilities of the Galaxy Buds 3 make them a fantastic accessory for my Samsung ecosystem.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The now brief, AI features, Samsung health and cross connection between other products is superb. Originally I had an S22+, and the small size boost this ultra has is negligible and I am picky about large phones. It's quick and android auto connection is flawless where the S22+ was very spotty audio wise. I've caught myself using Gemini AI for uses and it is extremely convenient. The phone customization is a huge jump. And how quick this phone is, is amazing. Would highly recommend this product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The updated UI works seamlessly and all the features are fantastic. I upgraded from an S23 Ultra.
Pros: - high resolution camera, near nat geo quality images and videos. - UI and screen refresh make input response time near instant, creating seamless actions across apps - very lightweight build when comparing to previous S2x Ultras. - great sound, Dolby atmos is much inproved on surround sound.
Cons: - can no longer use as an emergency weapon due to weight. - Camera has zoom and focus issues, quality is noticeably different from regular mode and pro without adjustments. - AI features are constantly pushed to the point they're obstructive. - boring design.
PLEASE MAKE THE S26 ULTRA WITH A BIGGER SCREEN! Upgrading from the S24 Ultra. I feel the S25 ultra looks smaller than my S25 Ultra but yet it's soposed to be bigger? I miss the square corners I think it made the phone look big, expensive, and classy! All I want is a bigger screen and a larger battery. Make a collapsible s pen or one that can shrink down and extend out to give more battery room. Other than that I love my s25 ultra, the display is beautiful. I feel the s24 ultra battery lasted longer although im still happy with my purchase as the phone is growing on me but im not too impressed. I kinda miss my 24U. But im gonna keep my 25U and wait for the 26U to trade this one in. Still giving 5 stars because I love Samsung, love what they make, & love what they do.. I was nervous about my trade in deal as I heard horror stories. But my s24 ultra trade in was mint condition and everything went successful so im very satisfied and will continue spending my money with samsung!
Very, Very, very disappointed with the quality of pictures using this flagship phone. Ai is very good. Keep your old phone, wait for a better camera.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
