Love the new phone! But...
on March 9, 2026
Posted by: GreenMan
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really do love the new phone. Great color and looks like premium quality. Also happy to upgrade for the longer support options. Really really loved my s23 ultra, but soon it will be out of support, sadly.
Some cons: possibly poor screen contrast, same battery, lack of s pen bluetooth, higher prices. Not really much improved over the s23 ultra other than galaxy ai features (not my favorite thing honestly).
Really wish Samsung would start taking some more design risks other thank foldables. Foldables are just too fragile and expensive.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love the Samsung Galaxy S26
Ultra! It delivers an exceptional user experience with its powerful performance and stunning display. The screen is incredibly vibrant and smooth, making everything from streaming videos to gaming a pleasure. The camera system is outstanding - photos and videos are sharp, detailed, and perform great in low light. Battery life easily gets me through a full day of heavy use, and the fast charging is super convenient. The sleek design feels premium and comfortable in hand. Overall, the Galaxy S26 Ultra is a top-tier flagship phone that exceeds expectations in every way - I'm extremely satisfied and would highly recommend it!
And the AI is awesome
