[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Was not expecting such a huge upgrade from the previous generation but I MA blown away by the s25 ultra, especially so pared to the amazing S24 ultra. Now brief is interesting, the Audio eraser is like magic, and all the new features and AI enhancements seem great!

Great phone but missing "flagship" features
on February 18, 2025
Posted by: ToddDax
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great phone. I want to start there because it is, but there are three things that bug me and keep me from really liking this phone. The first is that the phone feels less substantial than previous iterations, it's more of a personal thing but it struck me as odd. The second is the loss of the curved edges, I may be in the minority here but i loved using those for silent notifications. The this is the loss of blue tooth for the pen, I used to use the phone to take really neat pictures but can't now.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Phone is snappy and has great battery life. Just started playing with the AI features. I love the audio eraser.
I wish it still have Bluetooth s-pen.

Nice not Perfect
on February 18, 2025
Posted by: Weatherguy25
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I do appreciate that this phone is solid and doesn't feel cheap. There has been no issues or malfunctions and the camera works well.
The only reason why I gave 3 stars is simply because of the outdated software. The phone came with December patch however we are now in February. I've had the phone for 2 weeks and the official release date was 02/07/2025 - but still no software upgrades.
I work from home in a more advanced position that allows me to have teams on my phone. As a result of the software not being updated I am unable to access Teams which affects my ability to work.
Side note. The green isn't so green :(

Removing S-Pen functionality is Wrong
on February 18, 2025
Posted by: ZoltarSpeaks
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While I like the extra power, speed and anti-reflective / glare screen (compared to my S23 Ultra), it remains to be seen if I can will keep it due to the reduced S-pen functionality. On average I take over 15,000 photos a year and most were taken using the S-pen shutter button on my S23 Ultra. Most of these could not have been taken with the phone shutter button or my watch due to how I use the phone on an extender.

Difficulties from the start
on February 18, 2025
Posted by: R3alOGSammyFan
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Things I like about the device includes The New Morning and Evening Brief. I think the potential is there for it to be integrated into my daily phone usage. I haven't been able to use the seamless actions across apps yet or the Audio Eraser. But they do seem promising.
I'm having a difficult time getting my settings and data from my previous device. There are definitely some features that are going to take some getting used to. But I've had the phone only a few days and have spent too much time getting accessories connected and data transfered. It's still not done.

Nice upgrade but not very durable
on February 18, 2025
Posted by: Joeinthehills
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had the S25 Ultra for 2 weeks. Overall it's a nice phone but I dropped it today from pocket height and the back glass completely shattered. For the price I would expect a little more durability.
