Great new AI features
on March 19, 2026
Posted by: KornSquabble
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After spending some quality time with the Galaxy S26 Ultra, I finally feel like we’ve hit the point where "AI" isn't just a marketing buzzword—it’s actually making my life easier.
If you’re thinking about upgrading, here’s my take on why this thing is a beast, especially when it comes to the new Galaxy AI features.
The Hardware: Still the King of Screens
First off, the hardware is exactly what you’d expect from an Ultra. It’s got that premium titanium feel, but the real star is the new 6.9-inch Privacy Display. If you’re ever out in public and don't want the person next to you reading your texts, this is a lifesaver. It’s crystal clear from the front but goes dark from the side.
The camera is still top-tier, too. I’ve been messing around with the 5x optical zoom and the low-light video, and the clarity is honestly wild.
Where Galaxy AI Actually Wins
I’ll be honest, I was skeptical about "Agentic AI," but it’s the most useful part of the phone.
Now Nudge: This is the feature I use the most. It’s spooky-smart. It’ll see I’m talking about a meeting and automatically pull up my calendar or suggest a document I was just looking at.
AI Photo Assist: I’m not a pro photographer, but the generative editing makes me look like one. Being able to just "describe" a change—like "make the sky more sunset-orange"—and having it happen instantly is a total flex.
Performance: Even with all these AI background tasks running, the Snapdragon 8 Elite keeps everything buttery smooth. I have

Amazing Upgrade
on March 19, 2026
Posted by: SamsungRain
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After having the Galaxy S23+ 5G for 2 years, it was time for an upgrade. The Galaxy S26 Ultra has an amazing camera and the new privacy display takes it to a whole new level. The rounded corners makes the phone comfortable to hold and I love the rose gold color. The Galaxy AI is helpful especially when I want to edit my pictures right from the gallery. Overall, I don't have any complaints. Always will be Team Samsung!!.

What I've come to expect from the Samsung S series
on March 19, 2026
Posted by: JB1234
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had various Samsung S series phones since 2011 and they've never disappointed. The Galaxy AI on the S26 Ultra works amazing and I love the integration with the camera. This new version is fast and looks great. I really appreciate the easy transfer of data from my old phone. After having my new phone for two days, my Wife ordered one for her a well. I also ordered the galaxy pro 4 ear buds and they are phenomenal.

Pretty phone
on March 19, 2026
Posted by: Hellokitty22
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The color in videos looks slightly peachy than in person. It's a light pink, very pretty. The processor is snappy and the camera is slightly better than my old s23 ultra.

Privacy screen and Galaxy AI top notch
on March 19, 2026
Posted by: hippiestick
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Galaxy AI is unbelievably accurate on this phone. The privacy screen is one of the most innovative ideas to hit the smartphone since apps. Love the color and feel of the phone. The blue is definitely different, it just pops. The camera and display are unbelievably sharp. Awesome phone... I highly highly recommend.

BEST Samsung I have owned.
on March 19, 2026
Posted by: Shadowend
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far so good! The number one thing I love is battery life no problem lasting the whole day.
Privacy screen is awesome it works as advertised some of my friends noticed it and kept staring in amazement.
The screen though 8 bit with FRC is noticeably better than my S-24 ultra was. I noticed it the first movie i watch spectacular colors and shades stood out much better.
Over all its a no brainer that I have no regrets buying.
