Worth Upgrading to from the S22 Ultra
on March 8, 2026
Posted by: Gizmo0515
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been faithfully using my S22 ultra since I pre-ordered it and as the new S phones came went, none really drew me in and convinced me to upgrade like the features of the S26 Ultra, I love having the option of being to turn on or off the privacy display and to even choose what things have the feature applied to them. I have yet to delve too deeply in Galaxy AI but I am excited to see what it has in store for me with this powerful new phone!

So far no major issues
on March 8, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy AI has helped in the few times I've used it.
The privacy settings for the screen is not as good as hoped. It does make it harder to see by other people, but it also makes it harder for you to see things clearly on the screen, especially pictures.
Transferring from the Galaxy S25 Ultra was pretty quick (not sure if the Galaxy AI is used for this) and mostly easy with the Smart Switch app using a usb cable. It took less than an hour.
The only problem I had was transferring my Galaxy Watch Ultra (2025), which took several attempts before it finally completed. Getting it finally work was not intuitive, I had to change a setting but don't remember what it was now, and I did not see the ability to transfer it in the Watch settings until I looked at the "About" for something else and it was at the bottom under the additional features.
My Samsung Galaxy Ring and Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro transferred without an issue. My Samsung Galaxy Buds4 Pro installed without an issue.
Even the connection to my Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 and Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 was easy.
The photo is with the standard privacy settng on.

I wish Samsung would bring back the Orange color that was available for the Galaxy S24 Ultra. It was one of the best colors Samsung has ever had.

Great daily device with smart AI features
on March 8, 2026
Posted by: toxic2004
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my Samsung device every day for work, streaming and staying connected with family and friends. The performance has been very reliable and everything feels smooth and responsive even when I run several apps at the same time.
One feature that really stands out for me is Galaxy AI. It makes simple tasks faster and more convenient. I use it for writing messages, organizing notes and sometimes improving photos that I take during the day. It saves time and makes the phone feel smarter and more helpful in everyday situations.
The display is bright and comfortable for watching videos and reading. I often watch movies and sports highlights and the experience is very enjoyable. The battery also lasts through a full day of regular use which is important for me because I do not like worrying about charging all the time.
Overall this device fits very well into my daily routine. It is fast, easy to use and the Galaxy AI tools add something genuinely useful instead of being just a gimmick. I am very satisfied with how it performs in real life use.

A real upgrade from my S22 Ultra
on March 8, 2026
Posted by: Gops123
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy AI in the S26 Ultra has become very advanced with many capabilities, especially while drafting emails for work, editing photos, transcribing speech, and performing intelligent searches. I'm really happy with the software enhancements that the S26 Ultra provides for my work and daily life. Happy to continue with the Samsung family.

Great upgrade with powerful Galaxy AI features
on March 8, 2026
Posted by: HyperDRiFT
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used the Galaxy S22 Ultra for several years and the Galaxy S26 Ultra feels like a very welcome upgrade. The screen is brighter and sharper, performance is noticeably faster, and everything runs very smoothly.
The Galaxy AI features are also very useful in everyday situations. Tools that help with writing, organizing notes, and summarizing information make the phone feel more productive and helpful throughout the day.
The camera quality is excellent with strong zoom and clear photos. I also absolutely love the Horizontal Lock feature within the Super Steady video mode. It acts like a digital gimbal and keeps footage level even while moving or rotating, which makes videos look much smoother and more professional.
Another feature I really like is the privacy display option. It really does keep what’s on your screen private when you’re using your phone around other people!
Battery life has also been very solid and easily lasts through a full day of normal use.
Overall, the Galaxy S26 Ultra is a big step forward and a solid upgrade!!!
