[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The S26u is a good upgrade over the s22u. However, Samsung has taken away features that made the S22u a great phone. IE, no longer have capability to have smart led view case. I loved that you used to be able to open the cover and the phone was ready to go. Not a fan of double tapping the screen or pressing side button, then swiping up to get into phone.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This phone is a major step up from the S24 Ultra! I loved that phone, but everything from the camera to the graphics are a minor but NOTICEABLE upgrade.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra shifts away from chasing raw spec numbers to focus on physical refinement, practical hardware upgrades, and enhanced user privacy. It is a highly polished, mature flagship that perfects the modern power-user experience.
Key Takeaways Refined Design: Ditches the boxy "Note" corners for more comfortable rounded edges. It is thinner (7.9mm) and lighter (214g), trading titanium for a lighter, more thermally efficient aluminum frame.
Privacy Display: Features a 6.9-inch AMOLED screen with a hardware-integrated privacy filter that blocks off-angle viewing in public spaces at the toggle of a button.
Peak Performance: Powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip and up to 16GB of RAM, offering seamless multitasking, cooler gaming sessions, and intuitive, contextual "Galaxy AI Nudge" features.
Upgraded Cameras: Retains the 200MP main setup but introduces wider physical lens apertures for vastly superior low-light photography and a "Horizontal Lock" feature for ultra-stabilized video.
Faster Charging: Upgrades battery performance with a 5,000 mAh capacity that now supports quicker 60W wired fast charging.
Longevity: Includes the built-in S Pen and guarantees 7 years of Android OS and security updates.
By addressing long-standing complaints like charging speeds and sharp ergonomics while introducing genuine privacy innovations, the S26 Ultra earns a 9.5/10 as the undisputed pinnacle of Android flagships.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my galaxy device for pretty much everything I do daily and nightly. Work, games, music, movies, video, photos. Google ai is amazing when I need help or just curious about certain information.
