Incredible Efficiency with Galaxy Al
on March 15, 2026
Posted by: vdri4n
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this phone man, The camera on this device is phenomenal. I am particularly impressed by how Galaxy Al enhances my photos after I take them, making colors pop and removing unwanted reflections. It is my go-to device for capturing high-quality videos while traveling.
Battery is topp #1.

Amazing phone!!
on March 15, 2026
Posted by: Nessa84
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've always been a Samsung girl, This new Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra just took my love to a whole new level!! It's so easy to connect/switch everything over to. All the improvements are amazing. The Galaxy AI feature is top notch. Don't even get me started on the Camera. You could let people pay you to take their pictures as a professional they turn out so good. You can edit and do anything you'd like right away.

Samsung S26 Ultra: Major Battery Drain & Power Sav
on March 15, 2026
Posted by: Ali1983
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am extremely disappointed with the battery life on my new S26 Ultra.
Even with Power Saving mode turned ON, I am having to recharge the device 3 times a day.
I expected the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 Elite to be more efficient, but the drain is worse than my old phone.
The phone seems to lose significant charge even when idling in my pocket.
Power Saving mode doesn’t seem to be throttling background apps or the refresh rate properly.
I suspect the new Privacy Display pixels or the high brightness (2,600 nits) are the main culprits.
I have already tried a factory reset and software updates, but nothing has fixed the 3-charge-per-day issue.
Compared to reviews claiming 9+ hours of Screen-On Time, my unit is performing significantly below average.
This feels like a Day 1 software bug or a defective batch of batteries.
Has anyone else found a fix for this, or is anyone else seeing this same rapid drain?

S26 Ultra is a great upgrade from S24 Ultra
on March 15, 2026
Posted by: HogwartsFan90
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the screen on the new Galaxy S26 Ultra! It is clear with vibrant colors. The privacy feature has been a great addition when entering passwords, sensitive information, and viewing banking information. Love the thought of using it on flights and the person next to me cannot see what I'm watching/doing.
The new AI software has been a great addition to suggesting new settings to only allow necessary notifications instead of every alert from all apps. Using AI to search for products from a screenshot and editing photos have always been great and continue to be.
Overall, I am very happy with the S26 Ultra as an upgrade from the S24 Ultra.

Best samsung galaxy phone ever
on March 15, 2026
Posted by: Anapista
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This phone is a beast, it has everything you could wish for a phone, it's not the best on everything but it excels on most and have it all. This phone is amazing. The AI is better than in any other phone in the market so far, non of the others come even close. In other words, it doesn't stop amazing me. Design, quality, innovation, features, it's good on everything. This is a great everyday companion.
