Can't believe the week after I got my 25, you came out with the new 26 model, and lowered the sale price on the 25 lower than what I paid... I should have waited...😠
The phone seems to be a fairly nice device, the sound quality is excellent, the reception is better than my last Samsung phone, the camera takes excellent photos but I've already had several instances where it failed and had to be reset, much better than my old S9 phone. I feel the phone could use a whole lot less bloatware, it just gets in the way and wastes space and resources. I was impressed with the migration from the old device, it went very smoothly and I haven't found any problems so far. There were some things that didn't transfer but that is expected. I was very disappointed with the phone not coming with a charger and cable. For the cost, this is a very big irritant. Once I have the time to figure everything out I might have to change my review but satisfied so far.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The phone is smaller than my previous S22 Ultra, but otherwise is better.
Would have given 5 stars for sure if not for the set up issues. Annoying apps installed without my permission and a lot of additional setup steps with Google and Samsung implanted, alone to make them more money.

I have been a loyal Samsung user for many years now. I have been wanting the S24 Ultra for some time. When the 25 came out for such an amazing price, I grabbed it and could not have been happier! I love using the pen as I have always "fat fingered" on the key board. The camera is amazing and takes beautiful pictures. I'm super satisfied with my purchase! Thank you, Samsung! Sincerely, A very happy and loyal customer

Upgrade from S22 Ultra to S25 Ultra is a big improvement on battery usage. Camera upgrade also is a nice added feature.

For the price, it doesn't do much more, or anything better than my S20 Ultra.

Great camera and fast startup. AI works quickly and accurately. One UI 8 has some really great customization features especially paired with the Good Lock app. The curved corners are just "ok". I prefer a square phone. I think this will be my last S series if the phone gets anymore rounder.
