[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this phone for everything in my life, is my alarm in the morning, I have the music for the road, I use it a lot at work, I use the Galaxy Ai daily. I love the new camera it's way better than all the previous ones. I trade in my phone every year to get the new one. This s26 ultra it's just what samsung is giving me every year, nothing but the best.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First phone cameras are so high . So phone is uneven and wobbly on flat surface. Great comes with privacy mode. I have S23 Ultra before and had screen cover fingerprint issue but t newer model is flat screen is better.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the screen, battery, and just the whole package that Samsung has released.
Pros- -Battery is a noticable improvement. I had an S24 Ultra and this is a major improvement on that -Samsung gives great trade in deals in its initial weeks. Don't miss those. They're truly great value -I like this flat matte style display too. The best in the market by far -Charging speeds, especially wireless charging are a huge plus
Cons- -I would've liked for the S-pen to continue having the Bluetooth. It does come in handy at times -Si-C battery could have been looked at, especially for the Ultra models
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like having an "Ultra" model. The privacy display option has come in handy already - I was using my bank app on a packed NYC subway and feared nothing because no one could see my info from their angle. I'm still loading my other apps but the overall feel is great. It's much lighter of a phone than the previous version - I had a S25 Ultra before; it was great too but this 26 Ultra just feels better.
I also like the AI support for a few apps. I'm learning more about AI as a whole from using this phone more.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For a long time, I've always wanted an Ultra model for its camera as I really love to do photography (nature, food, life, and some portraits). Before I switched to this phone, I was using the S25 (a major camera upgrade coming from being an S21 user). Now that I'm an S26 Ultra user, I had high expectations of this smartphone.
Fortunately, the S26 Ultra came just in time the day before my hike so I decided to have this beast set up for the hike. I was amazed by the photos I took and the video quality. For one of my photos, I used Galaxy AI to remove someone from a photo I really liked.
I really like how snappy the S26 Ultra is at its performance. The screen quality seems to be better than the S25 as well.
Overall, I'm really happy with this smartphone and I'm glad I got the chance to get this phone. Many more great photos are ahead of me, especially in preparation for my trip to Japan!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been extremely impressed with this phone so far. The overall smoothness of the system really stands out. Everything feels fast and responsive, and the new chip makes a noticeable difference when multitasking, gaming, or switching between apps. Battery life has also been excellent. The improved cooling combined with the efficiency of the chip seems to help the phone stay consistent throughout the day without heating up, which has made the battery performance feel much more reliable. The design changes are subtle but meaningful. The rounded corners make the device more comfortable to hold, and the display feels very premium. I also really appreciate the privacy display features that help keep information on the screen more secure in public settings. Another improvement I noticed immediately is the haptic feedback. It feels tighter and more refined, making typing and interactions feel more satisfying. The speakers are also louder and clearer, which makes watching videos or listening to music much better. I’ve also enjoyed exploring Galaxy AI features on the device, which add helpful tools and make everyday tasks feel smarter and more convenient. Agentic AI is awesome and nice to see Samsung first implement it and stay ahead of competition! Overall, this has been a fantastic experience and easily one of my favorite phones I’ve used.
