[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded from the s25 ultra to the s26 ultra. What I did not like and I think you can do better is making the transfer from the first phone to the new phone easier so we don't have the problem with the passwords, this is the only reason I don't like upgrade and because of that pain of having to put passwords and usernames and again. I got and upgrade for my wife's phone also and her biggest complaint was the transferring of information from the first phone to the second phone big waste of time because you can do it so that it is more fluid
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great device, the S26 series is the best option to get if you want to enjoy all the lastest AI features. AI is the best I ever try. The privacy screen is awesome.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I previously had the S24 Ultra with another provider so I'm use to the line & functions offered but in the day & a half that I've had the S26 it really stands apart !! From the sound quality to Galaxy AI this thing is incredible !!! It more catered to the user than ever & makes your experience alot easier & understandable, there are a few things in trying to get use to but I really can't recommend it enough !! One thing I'd really like to see is when transferring from very similar phones it would be incredible for the new phone to look & function exactly like the old one , meaning your always left trying to reactivate, log in to your apps like YT , Hulu,Netflix ,FB & all others. All your passwords /info is saved but it's all our the window just because you went from a 24or25 to a 26 or a iphone16 to a 17 !!! Things have came along way since the 90's so I'm sure we'll get there eventually . Do yourself a solid & get the S26 Ultra !!!
I have Had most of the S modela and this phone sucks I can't believe I traded my ultra 24. It processes so slow. My apps glitch is cant even install Facebook messenger I've done every recommendation. The AI cant even remember a convos from 2 mins ago. It constantly gives wrong answers or messes up simple task . The AI on my 24 ultra was amazing it helped so much with my job now I spend 45 min trying to convert something to a PDF. I want my old phone back
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
