[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This phone has truly been exceptional. While some may find the price to be on the higher side, it certainly delivers excellent value. The battery life is impressive, and the camera quality is, in my opinion, the finest I've encountered on a smartphone. The integrated Galaxy AI features have also proven to be remarkably helpful, and the level of customization available with this device is unparalleled in my experience. I would wholeheartedly recommend it to individuals seeking a worthwhile investment in a high-quality phone that promises lasting performance.
GO FOR IT!! This phone is amazing, its very smooth and the qualities are great. Got mine brand new as expect not a scratch.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This phone is incredibly well-designed, but I’m puzzled by its poor battery life. While other reviewers claim it lasts longer, mine doesn’t, even though I’m a very light user.
Lost several files and pictures during setup. Then trade in was denied. This is my last samsung item and want to return this over expensive phone

As a phone its fine, but there are several things that keep this from being a really useful tool. First, the battery. It's too small for a flagship phone. For a heavy user, it needs to be charged every day and sometimes more than once a day. Annoying.
Second, the UI nees lots of work. There are too many settings, too many options, and not all of them work the way they are supposed to. Maybe they do for engineers, but for the rest of us, not so much.
I can't get rid of the annoying text message floating dot that when used gives a smaller sized text window which is annoying too. Using voice for messages results in lots of mistakes and every time I use punctuation it spells it out instead of putting it in, and the mike has to be started again. Using the pen is not convenient because the writing area is tiny and there are lots of mistakes making it functionally useless. The alarm sound still won't change so I am stuck with another annoying sound every morning. There are several other annoying items but this should suffice for a review.
Had I known all this before I would pick a different phone, but now its too late to change it.
My advice is buy a different phone unless you really know how everything works and are willing to put up with things that won't work the way you expect.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The camera worked better in my S21FE I bought this phone because when I researched it said the S25Ultra was the best. The lighting is terrible when I tried to take a subdued lighting Pic of a Christmas tree it couldn't catch the ambient light from the tree also everytime a car drove past it cast light movement throughout the frame. Also it won't connect to my Android Auto GPS system! That is very inconvenient!

I'm coming from a OnePlus 13 to Samsung and I have to admit I was a little skeptical because I have had OnePlus products for years and I really enjoyed them but with this 25 Ultra, although it's taking some time to get used to the different features, I am absolutely loving this phone!!!
