Like it so far
on March 23, 2026
Posted by: Hakhsbduenu22
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My galaxy ai phone the s26 ultra is pretty good so far. Im still learning all the features maybe once I do more ill have a better review as of right now I thought it would do more lol. But I do like it so far. Pretty fast and can take good pictures as well as the privacy mode. Maybe the fingerprint thing could be better. And have better tips for the photo editing I already tried and it doesn't seem like how it shows on the ad. But im still working on it. And for the pen it says can mess up due to having a magnetic case but if that was already known it should of said that or not have magnetic cases lol. But that's all for now. Entering in the sweeps.

Excellent upgrade!
on March 23, 2026
Posted by: Sagenius
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded from the Galaxy Note 10+ 5g and it's night and day! The S26 Ultra has an amazing camera. I was able to take an EXCELLENT picture of the moon using the 100 times zoom. Galaxy AI is also one of my favorite things about the phone. Being able to hold the home button, circle something on screen, and easily search for it has been AMAZING! Also, picture editing is a cool experience now. I love being able to edit out unsightly additions in the background. My wife and I took a few pictures downtown and we could edit out trashcans, cars, and other things to make our pictures look special. I'm VERY happy with this upgrade!

Powerful, Smart, but Incremental
on March 23, 2026
Posted by: telbahnasawy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is a refined flagship that focuses more on intelligence and user experience than major hardware leaps. The 6.9-inch display is excellent, and the new Privacy Display is a genuinely useful feature for protecting on-screen content in public—something no other phone currently does as well.
Performance is top-tier thanks to the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip, delivering smooth multitasking, gaming, and AI-driven features. Samsung’s software experience (One UI 8.5 with Android 16) is a highlight, with smart automation and AI tools that make the phone feel more proactive and personalized.
The camera system remains one of the best in the market, with a 200MP main sensor and strong zoom capabilities. It excels in low-light and long-range photography, although image processing can sometimes look overly saturated.
However, the phone isn’t without drawbacks. The battery is still the same 5,000mAh seen in previous models, which feels underwhelming compared to competitors, even if real-world usage is acceptable. Charging improvements exist, but wireless charging performance can be inconsistent.
Overall, the Galaxy S26 Ultra is a polished and feature-rich device, ideal for users who want the best Android experience, especially in AI and productivity. That said, it may not feel like a must-upgrade if you already own a recent Ultra model.
