It is definitely faster than my S23 Ultra

Posted by: BUTCHN
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall the S26 Ultra is better than my S23 Ultra..I have only found one bug and it's a character input which is probably software related, but other than that, it seems better.
It does take some getting used to since my last phone update was 3 years ago.

Samsung's brightest star

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 5 Stars – Incredible Display and Camera!
I upgraded for the Privacy Display and it works perfectly. The battery easily lasts me through a full day of heavy use, and the AI features (especially Now Nudge) are actually useful. It’s thinner and more comfortable to hold than previous Ultras. Highly recommend!!

Not sure what to think so far.
on March 14, 2026
Posted by: Braeden
The display colors are so dull compared to older models. I have vividness turned all the way up, and my s22 ultra is still more vibrant even on the factory settings. Before people say "make sure to turn this and that off" they already are, no matter what settings I tweak the display just doesn't compare to my s22 ultra and its a real let down. Max screen brightness has definitely been improved though. Also why do we still not have the Bluetooth connectivity of the S-pen back? What are you guys doing Samsung.... (also the s-pen seems so brittle)
Cameras appear really great so far although I am saddened by the downgrade of the front facing camera vs the s22 ultra's. Battery performance is awesome so far, it does get a tad warm when playing certain games though.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Fresh look
on March 14, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After using the Samsung Galaxy S26 for several days, I can confidently say it’s one of the best smartphones I’ve owned. Samsung has really taken the experience to the next level, especially with its built-in AI features.
The performance is incredibly fast and smooth. Apps open instantly and multitasking feels effortless. The display is beautiful—bright, sharp, and perfect for watching videos, browsing, or working on the go.
What impressed me the most is the AI integration. The AI features actually feel useful in daily life. It can intelligently enhance photos, suggest smart edits, help summarize text, and even assist with writing messages or notes. It feels like having a smart assistant built directly into the phone.
Battery life is also excellent and easily lasts throughout the day. The cameras capture very sharp photos, even in low light conditions.
Overall, the Galaxy S26 delivers premium design, powerful performance, and truly helpful AI tools. It’s not just a fast phone it’s a smart device that makes everyday tasks easier.
