Top of the line!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Phone is solid, literally! It feels like a quality piece of work in my hand. It's speedy from app to app, it has the best built in speakers from the other phones I have tried not to mention the S pen is totally helpful for signing docs and other ventures.. when I compared the camera setup to my pixel 9 pro XL I was surprised XL. There was no clear winner when it came to quality. Though the pixel has much lower megapixels it did still hold a candle. I will say though the night time photography on the main shooter on the s25 ultra did seem to pickup more details for sure. Battery life is good! It lasts me all day and I generally take multiple video calls, watch videos listen to music through Bluetooth and more. If you have an s24 ultra? No need to upgrade. Not much difference here

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra: A Step Backwards?
on February 20, 2025
Posted by: Getittogethersamsung
Expertise:Expert
The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra arrives with the usual fanfare, boasting impressive camera upgrades and a sleek design. However, a critical omission and a stagnant price point leave a lingering sense of disappointment, making one wonder if Samsung is losing sight of its own innovative spirit. While the S25 Ultra undoubtedly offers a premium Android experience, the removal of the Bluetooth S Pen and the unchanged price tag feel like a significant misstep, tarnishing what could have been a truly exceptional device. Historically, the S Pen has been a defining feature of the Ultra line, setting it apart from the competition. Its integration with the software, along with its Bluetooth capabilities for remote control and air gestures, provided a unique level of functionality. Removing this feature feels like a baffling decision, significantly impacting productivity and creative workflows. The basic stylus functionality that remains feels like a hollow imitation of what it once was, a stark reminder of what’s been lost. For users who relied on the S Pen, this change is a major downgrade, and it's hard to justify the Ultra moniker without its signature tool. Adding insult to injury, the price of the S25 Ultra remains stubbornly high, mirroring its predecessor. In previous iterations, the inclusion of the advanced S Pen justified the premium cost. Now, with a key feature stripped away, the price feels inflated. Consumers are essentially paying the same for less, which is a difficult pill to swallow. One expects innovation and added value with each new generation, not the removal of a beloved feature while maintaining the same premium price. Beyond the S Pen debacle, the S25 Ultra does offer some improvements. The camera system, as always, is a highlight, promising enhanced image quality and improved zoom capabilities. Performance is snappy, thanks to the latest processor, and the display remains vibrant and beautiful. However, these improvements feel incremental rather than revolutionary. They are expected advancements, not groundbreaking innovations that would justify the high price and the loss of the S Pen’s Bluetooth functionality. It feels as though Samsung is resting on its laurels with the S25 Ultra. While the core hardware is solid, the removal of the Bluetooth S Pen and the unchanged price point betray a lack of understanding of what made the Ultra line so compelling. This decision feels like a step backward, leaving loyal Samsung users questioning the brand's direction. In a market saturated with premium smartphones, Samsung needs to do more than simply iterate; they need to innovate and provide genuine value. With the S25 Ultra, they’ve sadly missed the mark. Verdict: The Galaxy S25 Ultra is a powerful phone with a great camera and display. However, the removal of the Bluetooth S Pen and the unchanged price make it a disappointing offering. Users who valued the S Pen's advanced features should look elsewhere, and even those considering their first Ultra phone might find better value elsewhere. Samsung needs to rediscover its innovative edge if it wants to maintain its position at the top of the Android market.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This phone is seriously blowing my mind, the camera is insane. The battery life is a total game-changer, lasting all day and then some. The screen is so bright and crisp, it's like looking through a window. Plus, it's super fast and responsive, no lag at all, it's a total winner.
