Galaxy 26 ultra
on May 21, 2026
Posted by: jimmystunner
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Galaxy AI
Is on my new device that I am excited to use. I am the first 26 ultra user in America to get the phone. I am always getting the newest Galaxy ultra from when the first ultra came out. I havent missed one yet.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Few things which really stand out for me are
1. Galaxy AI: Hands down best AI integration in user experience period. It works really well and naturally seamlessly provides whatever needed.

2. Privacy screen: possibly a new standard, I love how I can set it up for specific apps like whatsapp and others. Its not just a dumb glass but a much more thought out product.
3. The camera: The ability to match horizon is magic, I also loved the low light on the new setup.
4. The lighter form factor, the device is very light compared to s25 and I love it.
5. Integration of Gemini at the bixby button and its awareness of context on device. Super cool

The latest and greatest flagship phone!

Posted by: Gibil209
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] From the new built in privacy screen, to the built in Galaxy Ai, this phone will easily handle all your day to day needs and more! You can customize your phone to your liking, play high demanding games, and be able to handle all kinds of business. I have had every single Galaxy phone since the first Galaxy and all I can say is Samsung perfects their craft and elevates new technology with every release. Thank you Samsung for releasing amazing products you have a customer for life with me!

Excellent phone

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the shadow silver and it looks amazing The 2026 Flagship Reality: More Than Just a Spec Bump
For the last few years, the "Ultra" moniker felt like it was hitting a ceiling. We had the 200MP sensors, the giant screens, and the stylus. But the Galaxy S26 Ultra feels like the first time Samsung stopped trying to win a spec war and started trying to win a "usability" war.
After seven days of pushing this phone to its absolute limits—from 8K video rendering to navigating the subways with the new Privacy Display—here is the definitive 1,500-word breakdown of why this is the most significant Galaxy in half a decade.
I. Design and Ergonomics: The "Soft" Ultra
The most immediate change is physical. For years, the Ultra was a "sharp" phone—literally. The 90-degree corners of the S22 through S25 Ultra were iconic, but they were also ergonomic nightmares for anyone not wearing cargo pants with giant pockets.
The New Silhouette
The S26 Ultra introduces what Samsung calls "Fluid Contour" design. The corners are now subtly rounded—not as circular as the base S26, but enough that the phone no longer stabs your palm when you’re typing one-handed.
Materials and Weight
Samsung moved to a Grade 5 Aluminum-Scandium alloy for the frame. It’s lighter than the Titanium used last year but feels significantly more rigid.
Weight: 214g (down from 232g on previous generations).
Feel: The back glass has a new "Satin Grip" texture. It’s matte, but it feels almost like high-end stationery—gr

Design with creativity!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a s24 ultra for 2 years, and today i received my new s26 ultra.
Since the first look, the phone is impressive in every way possible, especially the design!
Moving from hard corners to round corners feels really nice, and the light blue color is amazing.
Since the 24 ultra, I've been using Galaxy AI and Gemini in almost everything - and daily things, circle to search, image editing, and doing almost all my tasks and work.
And i really love the audio system in the s26 ultra, the speakers, mic, are great.
The only thing i will miss in the 26 ultra is the Bluetooth S pen.
In general, i'd recommend the s26 ultra for anyone who's looking for a good phone supported with AI and privacy and security, with great gaming and streaming experience!

Very nice design, lighter design and galaxy AI

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy AI is the most impressive thing Samsung has ever created, it's amazing all the features my new Samsung has, and the privacy display I never thought we could have that technology.
I loved the new design, much lighter, wider screen and better quality camera, I don't know how other people use other brands.
