The Galaxy Upgrade I Needed
on March 21, 2026
Posted by: JReview
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly, after using this phone for a while, I’m blown away. Coming from an S22 Ultra, I wasn't sure if the jump would feel that big, but man, was I wrong. This thing is a total beast. Right out of the box, the quality hits you, it feels super premium and has that impressive "heft" that just feels right. It’s definitely more than just a phone; it’s high-end hardware that looks as good as it performs. The cameras are a massive step up from my old S22, but the real star of the show is Galaxy AI. I’m not even kidding when I say that using Galaxy AI to edit my photos is the best thing I’ve ever done with a smartphone. It’s mind-blowing how easy it is. If there’s a random person in the background or an annoying trash can ruining a shot, I can just circle it and—poof—it’s gone. It fills in the background like magic. It makes me feel like a professional editor without actually having to know what I’m doing. The S Pen is still that "secret weapon" utility that I can't live without. It gives the phone so much more functionality for precision work, and there are absolutely no compromises to the design. Plus, the screen quality is just top-tier. Whether I’m scrolling or catching up on shows, everything looks crisp and vibrant. It gets super bright, too, so I’m not squinting when I’m outside in the Sun

Not worth the price tag
on March 21, 2026
Posted by: User20129
from Texas
The display is to dim when you have the privacy display on at the max. It is also fuzzy. The battery doesn't last as long as expected. The camera is good. I don't know if it is worth it with the heavy price tag.

Powerful performance and incredible Galaxy AI.
on March 21, 2026
Posted by: LoveISLif3
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently purchased this new Samsung device, and I am very satisfied with its overall performance. The screen clarity is excellent, and the camera quality has exceeded my expectations, especially for low-light photography. The battery life is also impressive and lasts me through a full day of mixed use without any problems. I find the interface very intuitive, which makes navigating the different settings straightforward. The overall design feels very premium in hand. This has been a great addition to my daily tech routine, and I would recommend it.
I do have an ask, please review the image import options when adding pets to a picture.
Example I tried using a picture of my pets and add them to another picture where my daughter is.
The idea was to have both puppies in the picture with my daughter and my dogs physical features always changed.
Or please guide us on how to properly use prompts.
Thank you

Great new features
on March 21, 2026
Posted by: Gville
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra for a bit now and honestly, it’s been really solid. The screen looks amazing and everything runs super smooth—no lag or anything like that.
The camera is definitely one of my favorite parts. Pictures come out really sharp, even at night. Also, the Galaxy AI features are actually useful, which surprised me. Stuff like editing photos and little smart tools just make things easier day to day.
Battery life has been good for me too—lasts all day without stressing about charging. It’s definitely expensive, but it feels like you’re getting what you pay for.

Privacy display is not quite there.
on March 21, 2026
Posted by: Aroe616
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The privacy display somewhat lacks in features. The "notification" based privacy only works at time of the notification itself triggering, and does not work at all when on lock screen or in the notifications pane, which is very disappointing. Not only is it hard to show off the cool selective privacy display to others, but it's also not effective at protecting at certain points while trying to interact with notifications. So could use a couple software updates to get right!
Galaxy ai is about what you expect. It's a do-all screen reader, summarizer, and generator for any sort of consumer needs. Nothing extremely notable, but it is very easy to use and is integrated in a way that it can be ignored, or used heavily
All in all, this phone with it's great specs is absolutely worth it. I'm using Google Fi, and it is running laps around my previous pixel phones (which honestly aren't as quality nor performant as they could be). And the battery life is incredible, I can easily get 2 days out of this device. Unlike my previous phone where it struggled with charging + Android Auto, it actually handles that very well _while actually charging_!
The only gotcha is the RAM inclusion. Only the 1TB version has the larger capacity RAM.
