[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had there S10+ for several years and was ready to upgrade. The S26 Ultra has been a major upgrade, and I am learning to take advantage of the Galaxy AI features to help with daily tasks and phone features. The screen is larger and easiest for me to read, and the OS is much quicker and responsive than what I'vebeen experiencingwith my old phone. The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is so deep with options, I will be enjoying and learning to customize it for a long time.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy S26 Ultra is the phone I’ve been waiting for for a long time. The Galaxy AI features are truly incredible and feel like a real game changer. As a freelance musician and private lesson teacher, this phone has immensely streamlined my workflow. It helps me stay organized, manage my studio more efficiently, and continue pursuing my goals as a performer and educator. It has also opened up new ways for me to teach and support my students in ways I never imagined.
The phone is okay I had the s24 ultra that I should have kept. It had a way better battery. I could go a full day and a half with the s24. I can't go a half a day with the s26 with the same settings. They also took away the Bluetooth in the spen for photos tragic. The new rounder screen feels like a step back from the s24 ultra the cameras are so much clearer. Yes the phone is faster and the Ai is amazing but this battery performance is trash

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I haven't purchased a new cellphone since the Samsung Galxay 22 Ultra. I loved the phone, but it was definitely time for an upgrade. I'm excited to have new, faster features. The Galaxy AI can do so much. I like the call screening. The translation features are amazing. Photo editing like a pro, also the quality of resolution is so vivid and crisp. Samsung has always made switching phones so easy, Ive loved all my Samsung down to the Note 5. All around excited to learn about more features and things to do with it!
