Useless S pen on the ultra 25
on November 5, 2025
Posted by: Ultra
from Michigan
Expertise:Intermediate
I purchased the Galaxy S24 Ultra (or S25 Ultra) expecting full use of the S Pen—including the remote camera shutter function (press the S Pen button to take a photo while holding the phone at a distance). For previous models this worked well. For example, Samsung’s official documentation for the S24 Ultra states that you can set the S Pen button as “Take picture” under Settings → Advanced features → S Pen → Air actions.
However, with the S25 Ultra (and apparently future models), the S Pen no longer supports the Bluetooth/remote shutter function. Samsung themselves confirm the new S Pen is non-Bluetooth enabled and does not support the remote photo shutter feature.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Do not like the S25 ultra at all. I have the S23 ultra and feel that is far superior to the S25 ultra.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

When you're at the top, there's only one way to go
on November 8, 2025
Posted by: 11yearsSamsungCustomer
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, it is a bit of a dissappointment from previous versions.
• The physical dimensions have diminished from sexy to boxy. It is very thick, heavy, and uninspiring.
• The AI feels bolted on over integrated, however, the photo editing AI is World - Class. Simply amazing.
• After many iterations taking photos, given the upgraded hardware, the quality of the resulting images appear no better than my S23 Ultra. Depth and focus are dissappointing.
• The screen brightness is superb and the resolution equally impressive. This is my first iteration of the Ultra with a flat screen and I miss the Edge style immensely.
• One UI8 is a tremendous let-down -- eliminating so many features and capabilities of prior versions like window transparency, window pinning, and the original DEX.
It seems as though Samsung set out to check as many boxes as possible forgetting the artistic astetic they originally created generations ago.

Lacking. Where's the upgrades? Not even magnetic..
on November 19, 2025
Posted by: LaReign
First impressions here but already from my s22 ultra this phone has all the same features except downgraded front camera & down graded s pen. I only switched because I was forced to. My phone stopped working because the update wouldn't download. & I know I could've just went online & downloaded it through the computer but what a hassle & would i need to repeat this every update? Ew.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Best samsung galaxy phone yet
on November 22, 2025
Posted by: GALAXY4WIN
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the AI feature on my new Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. I think it's the best phone that Samsung has made yet, with its ease of use, high quality, and high performance. I love using the AI to write emails. I use the refined features to spell-check and grammar-correct all my emails and even messages before I send them. It has helped me countless times. There is even a feature where you can change the writing style of your message/email.
This phone is the best. It takes pictures when you want them, how you want them, perfectly every time. If there is something in the picture you don't want, even if you want to remove a person or object in the background that you don't want there, you can easily remove it with the AI feature in editing.
The battery life on my Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is the greatest. I work long shifts, and my S25 has never left me in the dark or even stressing that my battery will die. The fast charging is amazing; in 45 minutes to 1 hour, the S25 Ultra is ready for the day.
The S25 Ultra has never felt heavy in my pocket or uncomfortable to have around me all day, even though it's a powerhouse in the palm of your hand.
I own a few Samsung Galaxy devices, like a Galaxy Book, Galaxy Watch, Galaxy Buds, and a Samsung TV. The way everything seamlessly connects in the Samsung ecosystem is just perfection—hassle-free, stress-free connection.
On top of all that, with its features, performance, and quality, it is such a good-looking phone. Thank you samsung

PHENOMINAL SMART PHONE

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my Samsung device (GALAXY S25 ULTRA) for everyday use. If I had to compair it to other smartphone brands it would be impossible because im a dedicated Samsung customer. Thank you SAMSUNG for all the hardwork making amazing electronics. Keep up the great work and you will have a customer who will continue supporting the SAMSUNG brand...!!
Phone is pretty good. Sad that it doesn't have bluetooth enabled S pen like its previous series phones. Feels lighter in weight. One feature that would be nice to bring back is phone to vibrate upon moving when you have a text. This phone only has it for missed calls instead of missed calls and texts.
