On par with the s25 ultra
on March 11, 2026
Posted by: Stevie
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra and returned my S25 Ultra for credit to Samsung, but it feels like a solid yet underwhelming step up—more of a refinement than a game-changer.
It's slimmer and lighter, but the core design and hardware echo the S25 Ultra too closely for me to call it a true upgrade—glad I tested it, but next time I'll wait for something bolder.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently upgraded to the Galaxy s26 Ultra from the Galaxy Note 20 5g, I'm in love with this new phone. I just love the Galaxy AI! The Galaxy AI possibilities are just endless! I use the Galaxy S26 Ultra for almost everything. I couldn't be any more happier.

Solid Phone
on March 11, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The S26 Ultra is a great upgrade from my S24 Ultra. It's a shame I can't use my S-pen for taking photos and Samsung went back to aluminum frame. But, the S26 Ultra is more efficient with the 5k battery, faster processor, and privacy screen.
I've had the S26 ultra since March 9th, and after everything I said above, I'm glad to have upgraded. Each day, I'm liking the phone more.
The Galaxy AI is solid. Each day it's improving and I'm impressed by it.

Overall great phone

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My only gripe and the reason for not giving it 5 stars is because the S pen no longer has Bluetooth capabilities. I loved that feature on my S24 ultra because I could use the Spen to take photos from long distances. Samsung you really dropped the balll on that one! :(

S26 Ultra
on March 12, 2026
Posted by: GoCanes
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The S26 Ultra has a great camera. The Galaxy AI is great, especially in the photo editing with object or person removal. I also like the feature that allows me to circle something on the screen and Gakaxy AI runs a search about it.
Dislike: Pen no longer has camera control. While I can say Cheese or smile and it will start a short countdown for the pic, this is much less convenient than being able to just click the pen.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The newest settings including the built-in privacy screen assists with my business needs when on the go. The battery life is great so far! Looking to explore it more thoroughly as time goes by.

S26 Ultra Review
on March 11, 2026
Posted by: Marseilleicon
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the phone, the battery, the display and the AI. Only issue is the camera bump, it slides a lot as it's not as stable as the model previously. Other than that, great phone, glad I made the switch from 24 ultra!
