Awesome product with useful new features!
on March 13, 2026
Posted by: S26UltraUser
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the privacy display! Real innovation! Useful innovation! The privacy display customizations are what makes it special imo. Just select the apps where privacy display can be activated.
Its not a feature that you want turned on all the time especially with maximum privacy protection on as it does add to eye strain. So selecting apps and times where it activates is super useful.
Super steady with horizontal lock is another new feature that I found interesting! However, It has its limitation where a lot of light is needed.
The S26 Ultra is full of handy Galaxy AI features which keep improving with every release. Two of my favorites are Now Nudge (saves time by suggesting actions based on events) and Health Assist (gather and shows insights about your health and activity).
Finally, I want to add that I like the Circle to Search new fearure where it is capable of detecting spam messages by just circling the content.

S26 ultra

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love using the Galaxy AI feature to get quick help from just the press of a button. The privacy screen is interesting but when first used made my eyes strain. Overall definitely am enjoying the upgrade.

Like the new flat display over the curved on s22

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the new galaxy ai. I'm coming from a s22 ultra I like that flat screen with the rounded edges over the curve the s22 had. The display colors don't look as vibrant as the s22 did but it won't bother me I use it mostly for work and searching for parts got easier with the galaxy ai.

So far, pretty great!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far since getting this device, I have loved it. I have gotten the last five ultra devices in a row and this is absolutely the best one. The privacy protector is kind of a gimmick but it's still pretty neat especially if you're out in public and want a little bit of privacy.
All of the Galaxy AI stuff is phenomenal as always, and definitely feels like it's faster on this one. I'm sure that has to do with the new chip and further refinements to the software.
I got the Samsung exclusive gray color, and it looks really nice in person, especially with a clear case. I've already had two people stop me wondering what it was since it's not a color sold in stores.
Is it worth the money? Absolutely!!! If you want the best you have to buy the best and without question this is the best.

This product is everything I was hoping for.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This phone's design is perfect. The touch-screen response is the best I have experienced so far. The fingerprint sensor response is the best I have had over the years. The privacy screen option comes in very handy. Looking forward to sharing more once I get to explore more features.

Privacy screen is a game changer
on March 13, 2026
Posted by: Limon4u
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my new ultra. It's been the ultimate (or ultra) productivity device I need. Between the new Galaxy AI features and the always improving Samsung notes app is been everything I need and more. The privacy screen is perfect for me because I need to view sensitive information for work often but do not like using those privacy screen protectors because they limit you even when you don't need it. Best phone from Samsung yet.

Good phone, nothing impressive.
on March 13, 2026
Posted by: DanielM
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had the Galaxy S25 Ultra and switched to the new model S26 Ultra, honestly I'm disappointed with this new model, no big changes, no big improvements, it is just the same as the S25 but with new features. Camera is decent, battery is not enough, performance is just the same as the S25, I'm really disappointed. The only "good" thing is the Galaxy AI but really nothing crazy.
