S23 ultra trade, I really liked that phone but the battery was getting worse. S25ultra so far has been mixed. The camera seems to be not as good. My images as are grainy, I cant seem to take a picture without a streak or movement, the s23 took photos like a pro, why is this one struggling so much?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was time for me to finally upgrade my phone. I was using an old Motorola. I have always wanted a galaxy phone and decided to bite the bullet and go for the s25 ultra. I have been loving every single second with it. SOOO many cool features and technological advances. The AI it has within also blows me away. I still learn new tricks with it:) Don't hesitate on the s25 ultra. I promise you will not be disappointed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy AI is awesome. The features and clarity of the screen. The little hidden features make the phone even better. The battery life is really good and the size of the phone is great..The reinstalling apps are truly useful and I enjoy having everything at my fingertips I also have the Samsung Watch ultra. The 4 stars instead of 5.. The s pen doesn't click for photos anymore.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazing product over all. Galaxy AI it's over the top and way more than I expected. I am extremely happy with integration of Gemini aswell.
I have since I bought it.Use the phone for streaming gaming and work related purposes. I moved all the way from the S22 Ultra to the S25 Ultra and the change you can perceive it, and be happy with.
Regarding the camera, the phone is able to prevent high quality pictures equal to those taken by professional photographer. I even had a full session taken for wedding purposes!
The only little downside that I faced (not that I was affected by it), it's the fact that you no longer can use the S pen feature that needed the battery ex. Picture taking.
However, with that being the only downside, I found that the phone processor, the camera, the speed, and the integration of Galaxy AI makes this phone amazing and I'm actually really happy to have moved to it.
