Fast, fun, and finally comfortable to hold
on March 19, 2026
Posted by: GreySheps
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m really impressed with this phone. The pink gold color is gorgeous—it honestly looks more like a soft peach, which I love. The rounded corners make a big difference too. It’s much more comfortable to hold compared to older versions.
Performance-wise, it’s fast. I constantly have a bunch of tabs open and run 5–6 apps at the same time, and it doesn’t lag or hesitate at all. Battery life has also been great—I can go all day without needing to charge.
I actually use Galaxy AI a lot more than I expected. The circle-to-search feature is something I use almost daily now. It’s so convenient not having to switch apps to use Google Lens anymore. I’ve also played around with the AI tools in photos, and they’re a lot of fun. I’m still learning everything it can do, but so far it’s been really useful.
Another feature I love is how it connects to my laptop. My messages pop up on my computer, so I don’t have to keep grabbing my phone.
Overall, this is a powerful, easy-to-use phone with features I actually use every day.

Very capable device.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This phone was an upgrade from an S23 Ultra. I've had it for a few weeks and have not been disappointed. The integration of Galaxy AI in addition to the processing power of the device has been a welcomed upgrade!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Beautiful looking phone . Very functional the Galaxy AI is one of the best. Easy to remove extra objects in pictures or ask the AI questions that come up. I paired it with the new galaxy buds 4 pro and the experience is amazing would highly recommend.

Loving my new S26 Ultra
on March 19, 2026
Posted by: Samsung4Life
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using my new S26 Ultra f for about a week now, and I love this device! I am coming from the S24 Ultra, and this device is very fast, responsive, and the form factor feels good. Not too heavy but feels right. The S pen is responsive and accurate. I do not use the Ai features very often, but when I do it is accurate and usually very helpful.
I LOVE the Privacy Display as well! Being able to make it app specific, or make modifications based on time or location are super useful!

Amazing phone
on March 19, 2026
Posted by: Shreddy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Coming from an S25 Ultra, which was already a great phone, the S26 Ultra has some very real upgrades! It is noticeably slimmer and lighter in the hands, the screen is more vivid and has less color banding, the cameras are improved and the battery life is even better! The updates to Galaxy AI are impressive, making an already solid AI platform even more useful for day to day tasks. Also, the privacy filter is an incredibly cool feature that has proven to be a lot more useful than I would have thought. Overall I really have no complaints, I would recommend this phone to anyone who is looking for an excellent flagship experience!

Great update to the series
on March 19, 2026
Posted by: Masanro
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Battery life has been great, I have played Umamusume on it for a couple hours with no issue. The privacy display has been nice to keep people from peeking at my screen. The quality of audio from phone calls has seemingly been improved as I can hear audio clearer than I could on my S24. The few pictures I've taken have come out crispy clear but time will tell how great all my pictures turn out. Overall a great improvement over my prior device, the S24 Ultra.

Worth the Upgrade
on March 19, 2026
Posted by: PensFans26
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The upgrade to the S26 Ultra has been well worth it, the privacy screen has been a game changer. The ability to be able to block only certain apps or just notifications from being seen by people around you is a fantastic feature. The improved Galaxy AI has also helped me in my day to day. I use to get numerous spam calls a day but with the new call screen feature I've been able to just ignore then and go about my business without having to worry about missing an important call.

Major move in the right direction
on March 19, 2026
Posted by: AvidSamsungUser
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank God they went back to a premium feeling device. Big improvement over the 25. So far the 26Ultra has been the snappy, quick, powerhouse that I'm used to. Galaxy AI is a great feature, even if I'm not entirely on board with the whole AI concept. I use my phone to help manage my business and play games, occasionally at the same time lol. I've recommended everyone to either upgrade and switch or go out and get themselves one
