[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use the S26 Ultra mainly in our Ministry locally and worldwide. This upgrade from the S25 Ultra shows greater ease of use, more functionality and just "feels" better than the previous models that we upgrade from yearly. Well done Samsung!!! Galaxy AI rocks as well.

Awesome phone
on April 9, 2026
Posted by: Ciso1990
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great phone and the AI features are amazing, the quality photos and the fast and neat works of the screen and systems is as usual great, the new design is alright and it feel good in your hands and that privacy display is a game changer. Many people complain about pixels when active but isn't that the same when you buy a privacy screen for your phone lol make it makes sense, the only reason I am not providing a 5 stats rating is because I miss all my Pen options like using it to record videos, play music, skip sounds, switch betwin cameras with air gestures at this point it doesn't really have an used unless you draw all day in your phone which we don't so please bring them back

My favorite phone ever
on April 9, 2026
Posted by: JuMuCrak
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had Samsung since the Note and have got the Ultra every year since they replaced the Note and I have always loved my phone, but the 26 Ultra is definitely my favorite of all of them.
My favorite thing about the 26 Ultra is the screen, it is awesome. It has little to no glare ever and it is always clearly visible outside (even in direct sunlight).
As always the camera is amazing.
Have found the Galaxy AI functions to be very useful and enjoy using them.
All in all a fantastic phone

Not sure if I see a benefit over the S23 Ultra
on April 9, 2026
Posted by: Mollie
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I traded in my S23 Ultra for an S26 Ultra due to the trade in value of the S23 being good, and honestly I don't think I see any difference in performance. The biggest difference I notice is in the battery life, but I'm sure that has to do with my previous battery already being three years old and this one being new. I was hoping for faster performance, but this phone is very slow to open apps it hasn't accessed before. I find myself putting my phone down and walking away for a minute or so, similar to what I used to do back in the dial up days. It's quite frustrating and not something I'm used to with smartphones, but it's just become the way of life over the past few weeks. If I knew a month ago what I know now, I would have kept the S23 Ultra another year. I don't really use the Galaxy AI features and it's annoying when I accidently trigger them and have to keep tapping my phone screen in a panic to get out of it. It always happens at the worst time.

The Upgrade I needed!
on April 9, 2026
Posted by: NayNee22
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I finally upgraded from my s22 Ultra to a s26 Ultra and it was worth it! I only have one complaint and that is the lack of connectivity with the sPen. It was super disappointing to lose that especially as I used it as a remote often for content creation and more. Other than that the screen, features, and camera upgrade have been amazing! I create content for an Instagram account and the enhanced photos make a huge difference. I have not used the AI features much as I have not needed them yet but I am excited to do so. The privacy screen is also so nice. I have it setup to only turn on for certain apps and it nice because I don't like attaching things to my screen so to have one built in a great feature. The battery life has BLOWN me away. I can't believe i can go a full day with regular usage and still have more to go by the end of the day. Overall extremely impressed and happy with the device and continuing to explore thr features.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my Samsung for everyday usage. I use its Galaxy AI functions and take advantage of the new screen security features. It allows me to browse, text and work on my ozone while in public.

Great phone with new tech
on April 9, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the S26 Ultra for about two weeks now, and honestly, it’s the first time in a few years that a phone upgrade actually felt "new."
The first thing you notice is the screen—it’s ridiculously bright. I was outside in direct sunlight yesterday and didn't even have to squint to read my texts. The build feels super solid too; the titanium frame gives it a nice weight without feeling like a brick in my pocket.
What really sold me, though, is how much Galaxy AI has improved. It doesn't feel like a gimmick anymore. I’ve been using the live translation feature for work calls, and it’s almost instant now. Plus, the generative photo editing is a lifesaver—I managed to "clean up" some messy background clutter in a photo of my dog, and you can’t even tell it was edited.
Battery life is also a beast. I’m getting through a full day of heavy use (plenty of gaming and maps) with about 30% left by the time I hit the charger at night. If you’re on the fence about upgrading, just do it. This thing is a powerhouse.
