Premium Build, Privacy, and Galaxy AI
on March 9, 2026
Posted by: Tomacchino
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have only had the Galaxy S26 Ultra for a day, but my first impression is very positive. The phone feels premium and well built. I especially like the metal bezels around the camera lenses because they make the camera area look cleaner and more durable.
The camera system has been impressive so far. The larger aperture has made a noticeable difference in night photography. Low light photos look brighter and clearer, and I am excited to try astrophoto mode in Expert RAW. I mostly take everyday photos and photos for work.
One feature that really stands out is the privacy display technology. The maximum privacy protection setting makes it very difficult to see the screen from the side, which is great in public. I also like that it can be used only for password fields, notifications, or certain apps, so I can keep the normal display experience for everything else.
I use my phone for almost everything, including school, work, gaming, YouTube, and streaming my own music library from Google Drive. The upgraded processor makes multitasking feel fast and smooth. Galaxy AI has already helped reduce friction in my daily routine. I currently use photo assist and translation, and I am interested in using summarizing and call assist more.
I also use the S Pen often at work for quick notes. My only complaint is that it can be inserted the wrong way, and the click mechanism feels rougher than expected. Even so, my first impression is strong overall, and I would rate it 4 out of 5 stars.

Amazing Phone
on March 9, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly, this Samsung has been awesome. The AI features are super, everything feels faster and way more helpful without me having to think about it. It just kind of knows what I’m trying to do and makes it easier.
The color looks amazing in person, way better than I expected. And the scree is bright, sharp, and just really clean to look at. Watching videos on it feels next-level.
But the thing I’m most excited about is the privacy screen. That’s a game changer for me. I’m always on the go, and it’s nice knowing people can’t peek at what I’m doing over my shoulder.
Overall, really happy with it.

Like the new rounded edges

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the new shape just wish the phone came in cooler colors like older ones upgraded from s25 ultra and love it for gaming also helps look up parts because I'm a diesel mechanic and also helps that the Ai search helps find service manuals and touqe specs when they can't be found on oem websites the camera also helps me take pictures of damaged parts and show failure in good quality I have been buying samsung sence I was 14 years old and would do yard work to buy new phones I hope in next year's model the battery capacity will be improved the phone is expensive but I love them just wish the phone had more battery life like the screen cool privacy feature but I will personally not use it much do not like the screen quality drop at angles the camera is alittle bulky but not that bad the s pen would be cool if you could get models without them the ultra with no spen option would be cool and then magnetic ring could be added instead all around phone is great and will look forward to finding the hidden features samsung puts in there phones already have adjusted some settings like moble data always active and turned of brightness limit the screen looks great and the back glass is little finger print magnet but my phone will be in the most protective case I can find anyway just something more noticeable on new phone over the old one wish the pr ordered got you free thangs like a watch or headphones like last year anyway great phone so far
