This phone is so much faster than any I've had.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This galaxy 26 ultra has me blown away so far. I've just started using "bixby" my galaxy AI to pull up my calender and add appointments, so much more efficient.I'm learning you can use bixby to change settings on your device or even guide you threw any process u are not sure of. Just say" bixby how do I do this"? Or "Bixby add an appointment to my calender",and bam shows ya the way. This phone was a definite upgrade. The camera has improved also, way more clear and steady at 100× zoom.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I truly love this phone, from the extended battery life to the privacy screen, it's awesome. I love how crisp the screen is when playing games, watching a movie or video or just surfing the web! The speed when playing games is phenomenal!The cameras are awesome, especially the Galaxy AI features! Every picture taken is clear and crisp.
I am a Galaxy guy threw and threw and the Galaxy S26 Ultra doesn't disappoint.
Thank you Samsung for an amazing phone and experience!!

Best Galaxy phone yet
on March 11, 2026
Posted by: Debbi32
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just received my new Galaxy S26 Ultra and couldn't be more pleased. The display is crystal clear and the new privacy display is a total game-changer. Love that I can set it for specific apps. Galaxy AI integration feels seamless and unobtrusive. Tried out the new "Nightography" system on the camera last night and was blown away by the improvement in this area. I upgrade to the newest Galaxy Ultra every year, but almost skipped this iteration. So glad I didn't!

This is the best phone yet!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Samsung really stepped things up with this model.
The display is absolutely stunning—bright, incredibly sharp, and smooth. Watching videos, scrolling through apps, and browsing the web all feel premium. The screen size is perfect for multitasking, and everything looks vibrant and crisp.
The camera system is another standout feature. The photos come out incredibly detailed, even in low light. The zoom is impressive, and the portrait shots look almost professional. It’s easily one of the best phone cameras available right now.
Performance-wise, the phone is lightning fast. Apps open instantly, switching between tasks is seamless, and I haven’t experienced any lag. Whether you’re gaming, streaming, or working on the go, it handles everything effortlessly.
Battery life has also been excellent. I can get through a full day of heavy use without worrying about charging, and when I do need to charge, it powers up quickly.
The design feels sleek and premium, and the built-in S Pen is a great bonus for taking notes, making quick edits, or navigating the phone more precisely.
Overall, the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is a powerhouse device that delivers on performance, camera quality, and design. If you want a top-tier smartphone with cutting-edge features, this one is definitely worth it.

Posted by: GalaxyUser
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Coming from a Galaxy S22 Ultra this is a huge upgrade! The phone feels premium and One UI 8.5 feels fast and snappy.
Galaxy AI seems to have some promise based on my initial impressions.

Amazing jump
on March 11, 2026
Posted by: vivaldison
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy s26 is a major jump from the 24. I typically wait to renew every other cycle and don't notice much of an improvement but this is a significant jump. The Galaxy AI is fully integrated and meaningful, showing up in all kinds of creative and unanticipated ways.
