Huge upgrade from S22 Ultra
on May 21, 2026
Posted by: DaBigHomie
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy S26 Ultra is definitely the best device on the market. I've always wanted black emojis to represent me when sending them to others, and the Galaxy AI sticker generator is the best feature I've seen on a phone. Picture quality is good, but some of my pictures come out darker than I'd like. However, the pictures that come out with the right amount of light are phenomenal. The S pen is more responsive then my older model's S pen. The mic mode where I can cancel out my background noise and people can only hear my voice is something all phones need. Glad Samsung thought of that. Overall, 4.5 stars. Incredible device, Samsung!

The look of the design of the phone
on May 21, 2026
Posted by: JDP1231
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm totally digging the phone's design, especially the violet color. I mean, seriously, the violet one is my absolute fave out of all the phones I've ever had. I think violet is the coolest and most awesome color; I just love it. It's the best color out there. It feels pretty good in my hands too. I like the design, and I'm obsessed with the S Pen. I love using the S Pen; it's my favorite thing to do. I love tapping and using it. The only bummer is the brightness. When you're outside, you can barely see the screen. I can't see the phone at all when I'm outside, even on a cloudy day with no sun. I can't see the phone, but with other phones, I can see them just fine. This one, though, is the exception.

Best performance and design
on May 21, 2026
Posted by: Done93
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using the Galaxy S26 Ultra for a while now, and there is a lot to love. The daily performance is incredibly fast, handling everything I throw at it effortlessly. The design is sleek and the display is absolutely beautiful. However, I have to make my position clear: I am strongly disappointed that Samsung discontinued the titanium frame for this model. For an "Ultra" flagship device, stepping back to aluminum feels like a downgrade in premium quality. The phone itself is a powerhouse, but dropping the titanium was a mistake. Samsung, please bring it back to the Ultra lineup!

An amazing phone with amazing features.
on May 21, 2026
Posted by: AByrd423
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It has been 4 years since I have purchased a phone. I had the S22 ultra. And the transition was seamless. I also love the fact that it is double the storage of what I had previously. The newest feature of the privacy screen is one of the best features we've had in years. It helps when im reviewing important emails. I'm also new to the galaxy AI features. I did not use it as much with the s22 ultra, but it is a big help when studying or trying to solve a problem. I love how it breaks it down into terms or phrases that I can understand when studying. I can ask it a question and it will create a full chart of the topic at hand. It also does wonders when trying to edit photos. It ill remove an unnecessary item in the photo and place whatever is behind it. It left me highly impressed.This is a device that could last me for a few years.

This product has very good privacy display featur
on May 21, 2026
Posted by: Ksmadhav97
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Galaxy AI is awesome to work with but during photo requests, I see the face of the person completely changes. I hate the wobbling of back side of the phone. Please bring back the bluetooth version of S pen. With the privacy display, there's a reduction in the quality of the display. Excellent sound quality. Sleek design.
