Privacy screen, great phone design but bad UI
on March 10, 2026
Posted by: Anonymous
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Galaxy AI in Samsung's Phone app is basically what other Android phones need to start using already. It's useful and a very welcome change to the norm that Android users are stuck with for most other brands.
The battery on the S26 should have been increased for this year but it's still stuck at 5000 mAh which is not acceptable for the price. The phone is needlessly thin sacrificing battery capacity and anything else you could have received if Samsung had just made the phone a few millimeters thicker. No we do not need it thinner their phone that we already have right now in the S26 series.
I do love the fact that we finally have flat sides instead of rounded sides on older Samsung phones. No Bluetooth on the s pen is just dumb. The privacy screen is an absolute must feature any flagship phone. I hope Samsung continues to improve the privacy screen feature in future models so that the viewing angles are much more restrictive when the privacy screen feature is enabled.
Another aspect where the S26 series falls short is the fact that one UI 8.5 is obnoxiously annoying and not designed by someone who actually uses the phone multiple times a day. For example the notification rows are always combined per app which means you always have to expand notifications if you have multiple notifications from the same app. There is no way to change this in the UI unfortunately. This is not how a UI should be designed if you actually want someone to like using your UI.

Extremely pleased with my new s26 ultra toy
on March 10, 2026
Posted by: Coolc215
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently purchased the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra in white, and I am extremely pleased with my purchase. From the moment I unboxed the device, I could tell it was designed with both style and performance in mind. The sleek white finish gives the phone a clean, modern, and sophisticated appearance that really stands out. It feels premium in the hand and looks just as impressive sitting on a desk or table. The overall design makes it clear that Samsung paid close attention to detail.
One of the most impressive features of the Galaxy S26 Ultra is its camera system. The quality of the photos is outstanding. Every picture I take comes out crisp, vibrant, and full of detail. Whether I am capturing landscapes, everyday moments, or close-up shots, the results consistently look professional. The multiple lenses and intelligent camera processing make it easy to capture great photos without needing complicated adjustments.
Another standout feature is Galaxy AI. The AI-powered tools make everyday tasks easier and more efficient, from helping enhance photos to providing smart suggestions while using the phone. These features feel practical and well integrated into the overall experience.
I also appreciate the strong privacy and security protections built into the device. When opening certain apps or accessing sensitive information, the phone adds an extra layer of security, which gives me peace of mind.
Overall, the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra delivers an excellent smartphone experience.
