Excellent device great job samsung, this phone was everything i anticipated and so much more lookinh forward to see what features comes on the s26 ultra
After some time with this phone ill say this is a pretty dang good phone only things that i have noticed is that my battery life seams a little low. Another thing i did notice it that if you turn on certian setting with the camera the photos come out looking softened didgitally and that part i am not the happiest about as a photographer. But those aside i love how the phone feels and operates.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have not been let down by a Samsung phone so far. I usually get the flagship phone and upgrade every few years. High quality processor, camera, memory.
1)The fingerprint sensor does not work properly with many screen protectors. 2) Floating windows are not detected automatically in scenarios like driving; apps such as YouTube and Google Maps do not function as overlay windows. 3) Even the Messages app should be able to open as an overlay window on top of other applications, which is not available on the S25 Ultra. 4)There is no built-in app lock feature to lock individual apps. Instead, Samsung provides Secure Folder, which creates duplicate apps inside it. This is inconvenient, unnecessary, and not preferred by many users. As a result, I have to rely on third-party apps to lock specific apps. 5) There is no gesture-based app launch feature from the lock screen—for example, drawing a letter like “W” to open a pre-assigned app. Samsung needs to improve these features, as they have been available on other Android phones and widely used since 2022.
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.
I would recommend this to a friend!
