I miss my S24 Ultra
on April 17, 2026
Posted by: Novahs1124
from Baltimore, MD
I've used samsung phones for over 15 years and this one is my least favorite. Many of the personalization features are gone. Battery life is good and camera works well but I have to reset my device multiple times per day for my text or email to come through. Constantly updating my apps because it does not do it automatically. Wish I could return it for my S24 :(
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Samsung has raised the bar once again. The Galaxy S26
Ultra is the most powerful and intelligent smartphone
I have ever used. It is the only device a serious user
will ever need.

Short review
on April 17, 2026
Posted by: Granj17
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The battery doesn't stay charger that long it's drops quickly. Anytime I use maps it zooms out of the mad and take it to another area in town but is still giving me directions. Some of the apps will still play in the background with the sound even If I clear them. I ha e to restart the phone constantly.

The Galaxy S26 Ult is everything I could hope for!
on April 17, 2026
Posted by: 32HMitche
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have owned the Galaxy S26 Ultra for about a month and it has exceeded my expectations. The main new features are the Galaxy AI and the privacy screen setting. I use them both daily. I am still getting used to the AI but it hasn't made my life any more difficult, so that's a benefit. This phone is noticeably more powerful than my old S24 Plus even though it's specs are similar. Not sure how that was managed technically but I noticed the difference. The S26 Ultra is so well-balanced in its weight distribution that I haven't had a single "slip and catch" or accidental drop. I had that issue with the S24 and didn't realize it was the slightly unbalanced phone and not me being clumsy until I got the S26 Ultra. This is particularly impressive considering the pro-quality camera should make it top heavy but it doesn't. My absolute fave feature IS the camera. It is by far the best I have ever used and the flashlight is more powerful than my previous phone. I was skeptical about upgrading my S24 since I thought it was a wonderful phone at the time. I am so glad I did!

Privacy screen is magnificent!
on April 16, 2026
Posted by: RCamacho
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This smartphone is a powerhouse, the screen looks amazing and the new privacy screen feature is amazing, really love it and enjoy it. I'm looking forward to use the Galaxy AI features.
The performance and battery health are top tier. There was quite some time that I used a Galaxy device and I'm enjoying this S26 Ultra.
I chose the Cobal Violet and got the matching magnetic case from Samsung and it really looks beautiful!
Looking forward to try new Galaxy phones in the future!
