Samsung S26 ultra
on April 27, 2026
Posted by: S26ultra777
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Trade in my S24 Ultra for the new S26 Ultra. Love to the new phone. It isuch faster, smoother, lighter and easy to hold on my hand. The AI features are awesome, still learning to use them all. Camera is great.
I continue tweaking the features settings to learn and for my liking.
Watch may YouTube videos to find out new features that I do not even know.
The privacy display is ok for me.
So far, love it.

Amazing phone
on April 27, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra paired with the Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 Pro feels like a system that moves at my pace. With Galaxy AI, everyday tasks get lighter. Messages are refined instantly, long conversations turn into quick summaries, and real-time translation keeps everything flowing without interruption.
What really stands out this year is the hardware jump. The S26 Ultra brings increased RAM and a more powerful chipset, so everything feels faster, smoother, and more responsive under load, whether I’m multitasking or gaming. On top of that, the new built-in Privacy Display adds a layer of control I didn’t know I needed, keeping my screen protected in public without sacrificing clarity. It can use a bit more optimization so it doesn't use so much ram to fast.
For streaming, gaming, and sports, this combo hits hard. The S26 Ultra’s display is sharp and immersive, while the Buds 4 Pro deliver rich sound with strong noise cancellation that blocks out distractions. Movies feel cinematic, games stay fluid, and everything just flows.
For work and daily life, it’s efficient without trying too hard. Calls are clear, notes and edits happen instantly, and AI tools keep me focused. The camera captures detail effortlessly, and Galaxy AI enhances it naturally.
It’s not just powerful, it’s cohesive. The S26 Ultra and Buds 4 Pro sync into my routine and quietly elevate everything I do.

Great phone

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I 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.

Better than I expected

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There are so many great things to say about this phone! I upgraded from an S22 Ultra and have been blown away by all the cool new features.
The camera and battery life are so much better.
I was hesitant about Galaxy AI at first but it's fun to mess around with and is extremely convenient for things like screening spam calls or reducing light pollution in pictures I've taken at night.
The privacy setting is also great whenever I use a bank app or am entering a password or pin! (Or when I'm at the gym watching anime and don't want anyone else seeing it when I'm on the elliptical haha).
One thing I've loved is the new update to messaging. The default app uses rcs instead of SMS which has been great for group chats with my family. No more "mom liked..." And then quoting my entire message back to me (I'm the only one in the family that uses Android).
This has been a fantastic upgrade.

Privacy mode is definitely a game changetlr.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sometime when in a public setting like a waiting room. I don't want people to over look what I'm doing on my phone. The privacy mode is the next best thing. This will set the new standard feature every other phone will follow. Let's not forget Galaxy Ai, the more you use it. The better it gets.
