I've had my S25 Ultra for about a month. I bought it to replace my S22 Ultra, thinking I would be getting an upgrade. I've found this phone to be average at best. There does not appear to be a significant improvement over my previous phone. If I had to do this all over again, I'd take a pass.
My main reason for an upgrade was the camera. I like to take moon shots. This camera does not appear to improve my photos.
I paid full price for my new phone and decided to keep my S22 Ultra rather than trade it in. I'm glad I did. Save your money, folks!

This phone is a great upgrade option.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This phone is fast and powerful. It has seamless actions across apps. The camera has tons of options and takes excellent pictures and video in all kinds of light. The camera is also great for action photos for sports and hobbies. I was shocked at the battery life. I'm on my phone a lot and it stays charged all day. I am very happy with my purchase.

Picture and sound quality is amazing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Many of the previous generations features have been brought over but I still feel this was a worth while upgrade. The sound quality on this generation seems so much better than my mS23+. Still getting use to the new AI stuff but it can be very useful if you know how to be intuitive with it. Another fine Samsung product, I am a happy customer.

It's a great phone. It looks and sounds great and has a lot going on. But the down side is the phone tends to warm up very easily with very little use of the phone maybe just my experience. Other than that. I actually really like the phone.

I had Samsung S23 Ultra before this and I totally loved it, the shape, features and what not. When I was upgrading I wasn't really happy with it but I did just because the screen cracked of my S23 and I don't like using phones after they've been through a repair shop. I decided to upgrade and to be really honest This Samsung S25 Ultra didn't live up to my expectations. The camera, speed, and everything else I liked better of S23 Ultra. S25 Ultra is okay but it's not great. Kind of laggy, a lot of different glitches and camera also didn't live up to my expectations.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
