Huge upgrade and feels amazing.
on April 9, 2026
Posted by: TehLuco
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Upgraded to the s26 ultra from a s22 ultra and immediately felt the difference in quality . The feeling alone of the shape of the phone was a big difference. The Galaxy AI is definitely a plus for me when it comes to Note assist when im working and misspell a lot it'll spellcheck and make it look nicer, i constantly use the S-pen everyday and have loved it since the Samsung Note days. Even the Audio eraser is fun to use especially when you're at a concert or taking videos with some friends and there's a ton of unwanted sounds all around. When it comes to watching videos or movies its definitely a huge upgrade for me for simply quality, resolution, brightness and sound all around.

Good phone but.....
on April 9, 2026
Posted by: Kieko100
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the ultra is a good phone but the privacy feature doesn't really seem like a privacy screen even at its max. Is does take away some of the display features which I was aware of, my only issue is it isn't really a privacy to me. People can see my screen from the side and I can when asking a friend to hold it. The screen is harder to see but you can see words on text and you can see what apps or websites that are on the screen. Other then that love the phone. Its the 25 ultra with an extra feature so it isn't bad but im not sure if I would've bought it if I had time with it initially.

An actual upgrade.
on April 9, 2026
Posted by: RoJoMo
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been really impressed with the S26 Ultra so far. The biggest things I’ve noticed are how polished everything feels day to day and how much the phone actually helps without getting in the way. The Galaxy AI features have been more useful than I expected, especially for quick writing help, summaries, and little productivity tasks that save time. The integration with Gemini also feels like a real upgrade since it makes the phone feel more capable and a lot more seamless when I need answers, organization, or help on the fly.
I’ve also really appreciated the privacy display feature. It adds a layer of comfort when I’m using my phone in public, especially when I’m reading messages, checking email, or working on something I don’t want visible to everyone around me. Overall, the S26 Ultra feels powerful, smart, and genuinely practical in a way that stands out.

Not much of an upgrade
on April 9, 2026
Posted by: JasonD
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] To have stopped the free storage upgrade on preorder, this phone is not much of an upgrade. The screen was better on my S25 Ultra. The privacy screen makes it even worse, so I won't even use it. I'm seriously thinking of leaving Samsung after being loyal for 15 years. Pixel is looking better every year. Give us what we really want and stop with the gimmicks. Bigger battery. Brighter display. The customization is the last reason I am here. If they other flagship get better there, I am OUT.

Lighter, Slimmer, and Better
on April 9, 2026
Posted by: LowfatYogurt
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Upgraded from my S23 Ultra to the S26 Ultra. The battery life was significantly improved and so were the charging speeds. The speaker sounds louder and fuller than the previous model. In addition to this, the cameras got a big upgrade as well. Better low light performance, cleaner videos, as well as improved pro controls.
Galaxy AI feels well implemented. The search option works wonders when looking for things and the summaries it makes for messages and PDFs are pretty accurate. It is less intrusive and more effective than other AIs.
The privacy display lives up to the hype. Working in Healthcare means a lot of PHI is discussed on work apps, this feature keeps strangers eyes off private information. Being able to enable and disable as needed is a game changer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this phone mainly for work. I can't import files from my phone straight to my laptop. Galaxy AI has really good helping features.
