[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have owned several Samsung Galaxy phones with the S-pen. I am absolutely hooked on the S-pen! This S26 Ultra is amazing. I love the camera features. My first priority with a phone is the quality of photos. And this phone delivers by far the best pictures I've seen from ANY device. I am still learning what this phone is capable of. So many features to discover and enjoy! AI enhancements, where needed or wanted, are a huge help.. whether for a suggestion, or help with photo editing, not to mention fun! The only drawback is the omission of the Live Message feature. Since Samsung messages is no longer supported, it is not offered as one of the S-pen features with the latest model (I used it to draw and send personal messages/greetings to loved ones, or simply to "attempt" being artistic). I almost sent the phone back!! But I decided to stick with it for a little while, and I am happy I did. I simply use the S23 that I had before this S26 Ultra for my live messages. I do, however, hope that future S-pen devices can somehow incorporate the feature again. I highly recommend the Galaxy S26 Ultra. You won't be disappointed
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really loved Galaxy AI; it has many significant features and improvements. It’s truly helpful in various areas such as settings, advanced capabilities, methods, and functions and I highly recommend it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love all of the settings I can tweak on this camera, to get exactly the pictures I want. With the help of Galaxy AI, I can even polish them up a bit more with the removal tool. It's been great!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely love the Galaxy series I have the headphones watch and phone. Especially the interaction of "Galaxy AI" it is helped me in everyday things :-) I definitely recommend the Galaxy series items especially the phone :-)
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fantastic phone. I have been using this phone since April and I haven't had any issues. Galaxy AI has come a long way and it is so helpful! Battery life is fantastic and the power it has is wild.
I use my phone for everything from editing videos to playing games. I don't experience long load times or heat problems. Great device!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love everything about the new phone but I'm finding the hardware has glitches and bugs in it. It'll turn on and off on its own it'll start up apps on its own I'm about ready to return it.
