Privacy screen is a game changer
on March 13, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my new ultra. It's been the ultimate (or ultra) productivity device I need. Between the new Galaxy AI features and the always improving Samsung notes app is been everything I need and more. The privacy screen is perfect for me because I need to view sensitive information for work often but do not like using those privacy screen protectors because they limit you even when you don't need it. Best phone from Samsung yet.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This phone's design is perfect. The touch-screen response is the best I have experienced so far. The fingerprint sensor response is the best I have had over the years. The privacy screen option comes in very handy. Looking forward to sharing more once I get to explore more features.

So far, pretty great!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far since getting this device, I have loved it. I have gotten the last five ultra devices in a row and this is absolutely the best one. The privacy protector is kind of a gimmick but it's still pretty neat especially if you're out in public and want a little bit of privacy.
All of the Galaxy AI stuff is phenomenal as always, and definitely feels like it's faster on this one. I'm sure that has to do with the new chip and further refinements to the software.
I got the Samsung exclusive gray color, and it looks really nice in person, especially with a clear case. I've already had two people stop me wondering what it was since it's not a color sold in stores.
Is it worth the money? Absolutely!!! If you want the best you have to buy the best and without question this is the best.

S26 ultra

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love using the Galaxy AI feature to get quick help from just the press of a button. The privacy screen is interesting but when first used made my eyes strain. Overall definitely am enjoying the upgrade.

Awesome product with useful new features!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the privacy display! Real innovation! Useful innovation! The privacy display customizations are what makes it special imo. Just select the apps where privacy display can be activated.
Its not a feature that you want turned on all the time especially with maximum privacy protection on as it does add to eye strain. So selecting apps and times where it activates is super useful.
Super steady with horizontal lock is another new feature that I found interesting! However, It has its limitation where a lot of light is needed.
The S26 Ultra is full of handy Galaxy AI features which keep improving with every release. Two of my favorites are Now Nudge (saves time by suggesting actions based on events) and Health Assist (gather and shows insights about your health and activity).
Finally, I want to add that I like the Circle to Search new fearure where it is capable of detecting spam messages by just circling the content.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Woowww,
The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra represents the culmination of years of iterative refinement and technological evolution, standing as a true testament to Samsung’s dominance in the Android flagship segment. As the latest addition to the Galaxy S series, the S26 Ultra not only preserves what we have come to expect from a premium device but elevates every aspect—from design and display to camera ingenuity, AI-enhanced performance, and creative utility. For enthusiasts, tech professionals, and content creators alike, the S26 Ultra is more than a smartphone; it is a creative powerhouse, a privacy-conscious device, and a future-ready tool that makes a compelling case for Samsung’s visionary approach to mobile technology.
Design: Elegance Meets Ergonomics
One of the most immediately striking aspects of the S26 Ultra is its meticulous design evolution. Samsung’s decision to adopt rounded corners, softer edges, and sleek armor aluminum construction results in a device that feels as luxurious as it looks. Weighing 214 grams and measuring 7.9mm in thickness, it is slightly lighter and thinner than its predecessor, the S25 Ultra, and yet it boasts significant material robustness. This careful balance of ergonomics and aesthetics makes the Ultra a pleasure to hold and use, offering a tactile experience that is simultaneously premium and practical. The removal of titanium in favor of aluminum does not compromise durability; instead, it allows Samsung to introduce dazzling new color o

The ultra is a phone with new exciting features
on March 13, 2026
Posted by: SonnieG
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The privacy option on this phone is one of the most exciting feature that I decided to buy the galaxy. I now can even use it in the office without thinking of someone snooping on what I am doing . As well I look at thw quality of pictures and it is a phone that I use for my videos and pictures and people ask me what camera did I use. I can never trade a galaxy for any other phone.
