Best performance and design
on April 27, 2026
Posted by: Done93
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using the Galaxy S26 Ultra for a while now, and there is a lot to love. The daily performance is incredibly fast, handling everything I throw at it effortlessly. The design is sleek and the display is absolutely beautiful. However, I have to make my position clear: I am strongly disappointed that Samsung discontinued the titanium frame for this model. For an "Ultra" flagship device, stepping back to aluminum feels like a downgrade in premium quality. The phone itself is a powerhouse, but dropping the titanium was a mistake. Samsung, please bring it back to the Ultra lineup!

Great phone
on April 27, 2026
Posted by: thnksfrthmmrs
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Recently upgraded from Galaxy S23 Ultra and it was such a smooth transition. Smart Switch made it seem like I was on the same device, just with faster processing and a longer battery! Galaxy AI can be a useful tool.
The only downside to the S26 Ultra so far is the rounded corners. On my S23, it had square corners. Where the S-Pen fits on the S23, the base of the pen was flat and flush along the base of the phone. I never had to worry about the direction the pen was going in. With the S26, however, the corners are rounded so the S-Pen's base is also rounded. As such, the pen only fits in going a specific direction and I have to make sure I'm doing it the right way. I much preferred the S23 S-Pen positioning.

It is difficult to take a screenshot
on April 27, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use it to talk, text, take pictures, internet surfing, and for social media. I find voice texting impossible on this phone. Also, its difficult to take a screenshot. Neither should be complicated but are with this new phone.

Better than S25 but needs updates
on April 27, 2026
Posted by: QueueTQ
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was really excited to try out my new S26 Ultra.
One of those things I was looking forward to was the new camera.
One of those things I was looking forward to was the new camera.
Pretty good.
However, when I'm trying to zoom in the subject gets grainier than the S25 did. I could zoom in forever on that phone, especially on video.
On the S26 it seems to start to get grainy or blurry after 3x zoom on photo 5x zoom on video. I always clean my lens before I take pictures or videos to make sure that it is clear.
I'm hoping they'll have an update to make this a non-issue soon.
The phone is very similar to the S25 Ultra with some minor improvements & tweaks.
If they fix the camera bugs, I will give it a 5 out of five stars

So far so good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Takes great pictures (I'm adding a picture taken with this phone).
Plays videos well. Good audio with the new buds. Still figuring out some of the upgrades since my previous phone was an S22.

Haven't done much yet with the Galaxy AI, but starting to, so can't say much about it yet.

I have in my very own hands top tier peerless
on April 28, 2026
Posted by: CaptKaveman
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bet ya'all thought I'd be talking about that phone. You know THAT phone. The winner this year by a clean easy margin. I am astonished honestly that they've finally taken top place by such a width that I no longer feel like I'm rooting for the loser. Now I've gotten that huge cheesecake eating smile that comes with that first TIME feeling you that comes along with ANYTHING IMPORTANT that happens or is felt. This Samsung S26 Ultra 16 gb 1 tb is by far my personal favorite peice of technology I've ever owned. EVER. EVER!!!!!!!!! I genuinely love this awesome piece of tech. As I'm learning the AI part of it I obviously have a lot to learn. Love this thing!!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] They would need to reconnect the pen’s Bluetooth to take photos again, and also set it up again as titanium.
