[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded from the S24 Ultra almost a year ago, so I’ve had plenty of time to see what the S25 Ultra actually improves. The biggest change is the new 50MP ultrawide camera—it’s noticeably sharper, cleaner, and better in low light, and it even improves macro detail thanks to the wider aperture and updated processing. Samsung’s ProVisual Engine also helps photos look clearer and more balanced overall. Video gets a boost too, with crisp 8K and smoother 4K up to 120fps, plus richer color from default 10‑bit HDR recording. Compared to the S24 Ultra, the ultrawide upgrade and improved processing are the most meaningful differences. Galaxy AI has been genuinely useful, especially with smarter scene detection and editing tools that make photos look polished without effort. Performance has stayed consistently fast, and gaming runs smoothly with stable frame rates. Battery life has been one of the biggest wins: the S25 Ultra lasts about 13 hours 2 minutes, while my previous S24 Ultra averaged around 8 hours 33 minutes in similar drain tests—a noticeable real‑world difference. Pros • Sharper ultrawide and macro photos from the new 50MP sensor • Excellent video quality with 8K and 10‑bit HDR • Much better battery endurance than the S24 Ultra • Helpful Galaxy AI finishing touches Cons • Upgrades feel modest on paper • Occasional autofocus hiccups in video

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a Samsung loyalist since the early days, I can confidently say the S25 Ultra is a standout. Upgrading from the S23, the first thing I noticed was the incredibly smooth screen—it’s easily the best I’ve used. I rely heavily on the AI features to help solve complex math equations, and the personalized AI avatars add a fun, unique touch to my messages. Plus, it feels incredibly durable. It’s a powerhouse that’s definitely worth the upgrade! It combines impressive durability with cutting-edge software.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My S25 Ultra is the definition of smart phone. I use it basically all day, from walking me up with routines I set up using Galaxy AI, to falling asleep to music playing through my galaxy buds 3 pro. The multitasking and multi app use on this device is flawless. My main use is for consuming media from video streaming and music streaming. When I need to achieve a task that one may need a laptop for I can easily complete it on this phone. It is a complete device.
