[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose this phone as a upgrade i had the s23 ultra before and it was really good so i decided to stick to samsung and get a brand new 26 ultra and its very nice and works very well i am very happy with this phone.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the S26 Ultra because I have been a Samsung user for many years. My last device was the 22 ultra, which has lasted me well for 4 years, but was reaching the end of its battery life. So making the leap to the newest flagship has been a great experience in terms of QOL improvements, camera quality, battery life and performance.
Most notably, the responsiveness of this device with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor is nothing but smooth. I have no issue with doing multiple tasks and find that connecting to bluetooth devices or loading certain applications is much faster than on the 22 Ultra.
I spent a good couple days customizing everything with the Good Lock suite. The camera quality is fantastic and the new video stabilization feature is great. And of course, the privacy screen is a very cool and innovative feature. I have it set to block things per app or on notifications.
With all that said, I will talk about the flaws or things i dislike. The screen quality seems a bit diminished in clarity compared to my 22 and even other models of the 26 because of the unique display required for the privacy screen. Text was harder to read for me before adjusting to the screen on this phone and color quality seems slightly washed. The screen also only supports up to QHD+ but not WQHD+ which is noticable to me.
I don't find myself using the S-Pen much and it feels a bit lower in build quality compared to past phones with the pen.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded from the 24ultra to the 26 ultra, both are amazing, but I love the layout of the s26ultra, the is so much I have to learn, definitely recommend all Samsung phones and watches, have my Samsung watch ultra connected to my phone, it all works seamlessly.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The S26 Ultra is a really solid phone that feels premium in pretty much every way. The screen looks great, bright, sharp, and super smooth so everything from watching videos to just scrolling feels nice and fluid. It’s also fast enough that you don’t have to think about performance; apps open quickly and switching between them is easy. The camera is one of the highlights. Photos turn out clear and colorful, and the zoom actually works well without looking blurry. Battery life has been dependable too, getting through a full day without much worry. The phone itself feels well-built and comfortable to hold. I chose this device because it seemed like a good mix of performance, camera quality, and display, and it definitely delivers on all three. Overall, it’s a great option if you want a high end phone that just works well.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my phone daily for pretty much everything. I love the camera and the zoom lens is amazing. Very fast and good for gaming
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the fact that they went back to the full screen instead of the curved screen, it feels like I got back more real-estate, and it seems like the colors are more vibrant than before. But i am coming from the s22 series. Good Job Samsung! Also I am happy that I chose to stick with Samsung they are a great company.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I been needing an upgrade from my old phone, I chose the new S26 ultra. I like the sleekness of the phone and all the features that my old S21 didn't have.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really loved my experience with the camera of the Galaxy S26 Ultra, not only the amazing video fuetures, but also the photo quality, RAW recording, and i absolutely love the stars capturing full the expert raw app, it was well worth the upgrade from my Galaxy S23 Ultra
