[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] AI is new for me ... so I'm learning as I go!!! So far ... I'm impressed with AI features as well as some of the upgrades from my 22 ultra! The pen location isn't a bad idea but the odd shape of the pen at the corner location has but 1 way of fitting ... so you gotta have it turned the right way ... it can be annoying at times having to pull it out ... turn it around ... and reinsert.

Thoughts for the future

It's a great phone super nice but I really wish they would offer thier high end phone with a more durable option... like no s pen so it could be more water an dust proof for the people that work in a more out of the box environment an more prone to dropping while in the field. I crawl around under houses in rafters, I get dirty but enjoy my phone an its camera quality but they could offer a more work force vs business version of the ultra.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Review of s26 ultra
on March 21, 2026
Posted by: Dobetter
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a lot of problems with the Samsung Galaxy s26 Ultra if I try to watch a video it will constantly try to put itself to sleep if I'm not watching a video and just set it down it stays on. Bigsby is a joke. With the galaxy AI I can't register my voice because all It keeps saying is did not recognize. So Bixby just turns on and off randomly but never answers to my voice when I say the wake up phrase. Speak into the microphone and then read what it writes afterwards most of the time is nowhere near what I said. And for having 12 gigs of RAM this thing is slow or it could just be the processor or everything about the phone that makes it slow. And yes I have it switched on to where it's not supposed to turn off or go to sleep while you're watching it a lot of the apps are buggy. I would like to play some games on it but I'm not even going to try because it probably just make it crash way too much for it. So far I've only had a week but I'm not too happy with it it would be nice if this review mattered somehow but I know you guys are just going to look at it shrug it off and start worrying more about your pockets again, and to be honest I should have stuck with my last Galaxy phone too late now.

Not worth the hype
on March 22, 2026
Posted by: Maugham
I've been playing around with the phone and I gotta say I'm not impressed. Quite honestly I hate the bulky feeling it has due to the raised camera. I'm also upset to hear that the phone is now aluminum vs the titanium. The only feature I can say I like is the privacy screen. I feel like samsung is trying to hard to be like other big name brands. I've been a samsung lover for years but I'm seriously contemplating returning this and switching to a new brand entirely due to this new lineup.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The product did not hold a charge/defective
on March 7, 2026
Posted by: Unhappy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Worst experience with Samsung! I always have had a positive experience, except on this purchase. The phone lasted me less than 24hrs. I charged it overnight and it only charged to 70 percent, in less than 2 hrs the battery was down to 20 percent. The whole time the phone is overheating, hot to the touch. I called to get the issue resolved, worst options given to solve issue/ nothing was resolved. Returned item. The phone is so expensive, not worth the headache.

The best galaxy yet!
on March 11, 2026
Posted by: Kain99
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone who has owned every galaxy flagship, I have to say the S26 Ultra is the best galaxy yet! It's so light and comfortable to hold and easily the smoothest experience I've had. There's nothing the phone can't handle and with all the new Galaxy AI features there's alot of fun to be had! The battery now lasts longer which is amazing and speaks volumes for the phone!

The best phone of the year
on March 13, 2026
Posted by: Glytch
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The S26 Ultra is easily the best phone I've ever used. The privacy screen is one of the best features of this with no annoying glass cover on the screen or anything like that. In the AI age I have to say galaxy AI is integrated so well that it doesn't feel out of place or clunky, it just works and only when you want it. Fantastic phone.
