Samsung goated fr
on March 10, 2026
Posted by: CinaminGPT
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the new galaxy ai. I can take pictures and feed it to Gemini, which then will add it to my calendar based on what it sees. The camera aperture change is so good. It's much much better than s25 ultra.

Tech on the horizon
on March 10, 2026
Posted by: ShortGrL07
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Galaxy AI is new to me. As a young gen x/millennial I am learning to change as the tech advances. I used the AI to actually design my living room.
In addition I love to take pictures and having the advances of the camera is amazing. The zoom, details and more are great! Including the Night video!

Samsung Galaxy s26 Ultra
on March 10, 2026
Posted by: Flak13
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was eagerly awaiting my new phone, and now that I have it in my hands, it meets all my expectations. There's a huge improvement in the camera and the battery charging speed. Definitely the best Galaxy AI phone.

Never Disappoints
on March 10, 2026
Posted by: BobbyB
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new Galaxy S26 Ultra is such a fantastic phone. I haven't even scraped the surface of the Galaxy AI features but so far it is very intuitive. The seamless switch from my old phone (S25 Ultra) using Smart Switch is always so easy. I really enjoy the Galaxy AI features and don't get me started with the privacy display on all or certain apps. That is a game changer. I caught 2 people trying to look at my messages and they couldn't see it.
I combined the phone with the new Galaxy Buds Pro 4. Unstoppable!!! I am fully on the Samsung platform. So it only made sense to get the buds along with the phone. The sound on these are exceptional.
Now I just gotta work my way to get the Ultra watch now.
Thank you Samsung.

Privacy upgrade
on March 10, 2026
Posted by: KarlSan
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Privacy screen is a must now days. S26 screen is programmable for those apps, you want total privacy.
Main processing chip is a huge improvement, mainly because of the lack of overheating.
Camera features are also a impoetant improvement.
Overall, to inclube the less weight and thinner dimensions, its a good upgrade.

Not as impressive as its predecessors
on March 10, 2026
Posted by: EdoOkati123
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The battery drain on this is higher than I initially expected it to be. By contrast, my S23Ultra which I traded in for upgrading to this, had a better battery life when I initially bought it. It used to last more than 1 day comfortably. With all the new Galaxy AI features packed into this new S26 Ultra, it seems to be consuming considerably more battery in initial days of usage, compared to how long the S23 Ultra lasted.
Also, the new Privacy Display, when enabled under "Maximum Privacy Protection" mode, is a disappointment. Needs a lot of refinement in future iterations of the upcoming Galaxy devices. As a lifelong Samsung Galaxy phone user, I am convinced Samsung is capable of much more than what the S26 Ultra delivered. I hope the upcoming flagships have a bigger battery and a much more improved privacy display feature. No regular user uses as many AI features as they are focusing on. Hardware improvements such as battery and camera are what matter more.

Posted by: Galaxyman
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Upgraded from the s22 ultra. Amazing phone and such a huge difference. The galaxy ai features have been great to play with. Still need some fine tuning and getting used to the AI features but really enjoying the process.
