Minor upgrade from S24.
on March 11, 2026
Posted by: Tubalou
I've been using this for a few days now and it's responsive and has a great looking display. I "upgraded" from an S24 Ultra on a whim, and so far I'm seeing very little difference. It does seem to be a little faster in processing on most apps. The cameras have a little better low light performance, but overall the images don't look particularly different. I don't expect to use the AI features, as I've never used any voice response or "concierge" features on any phone. It does seem to do a better job at optimizing battery life, but I haven't had it long enough to determine if that's significant or just the way I've been using it this week.
I do like the rounded corners and the slightly larger usable screen area. The one negative, and the reason I gave it 4 rather than 5 stars, was the camera bump on the back. It protrudes significantly more than on the S24 Ultra. As a result, it doesn't lay flat on a table, while on the 24 that wasn't noticeable.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The best galaxy yet!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone who has owned every galaxy flagship, I have to say the S26 Ultra is the best galaxy yet! It's so light and comfortable to hold and easily the smoothest experience I've had. There's nothing the phone can't handle and with all the new Galaxy AI features there's alot of fun to be had! The battery now lasts longer which is amazing and speaks volumes for the phone!

I especially love the phone's privacy filter
on March 11, 2026
Posted by: Manka4Samsung
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While I haven't used Galaxy AI and can't comment on its capabilities, knowing that the phone has the latest features immakes me happy. The best new feature in my opinion is the privacy filter. I like that you can personalize it and don't have to sacrifice readability if you just want to hide the pop-up notifications.
I noticed that the camera is slow to open but I guess a software update in the future can fix that. I'm also happy to see that (at least for now) the Tesla app doesn't drain the phone's battery like it did on the S25 Ultra.
One design element that's quite annoying though is how the phone wobbles on the table without a special phone case. It would be nice to have a Samsung branded mag safe case that makes this go away.

Love my new galaxy s26 ultra
on March 11, 2026
Posted by: AURASH
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always use Galaxy products, and I remember buying my first phone the galaxy S21 ultra 5G beautiful phone back on those days then new releases came out but I loved my s21 so much that I couldn't upgrade until the s24 ultra came out better pictures, faster gaming, bigger battery life better display and ever since I been upgrading to each yearly releases, why may you ask because their phones design all look good, there's big improvements on camera, cpu which I enjoy because I play a lot of games on my phone, better display, faster respond time on the finge touch and I have decided that samsung will be with me forever because Galaxy never fails me as a customer.
