[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Took advantage of the upgrade promotions to move from S23 Ultra to the S26 ultra. It's a nice upgrade and the phone is so light especially for the size. The square sides are nice. Some good options with upgraded cameras and Galaxy AI that work together to get a better picture.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy S26 Ultra delivers an impressive flagship experience in every way. The display is incredibly bright, sharp, and smooth, making everything from videos to everyday scrolling look fantastic. Performance is fast and responsive even with heavy multitasking, and the battery easily lasts through a full day of use. The camera system is one of the standout features. Photos come out detailed and vibrant in both daylight and low light conditions. The zoom capabilities are especially impressive and allow you to capture shots that most smartphones simply cannot. Galaxy AI adds another layer of convenience to the device. Features powered by Galaxy AI help with productivity, photo editing, and everyday tasks, making the phone feel smarter and more useful over time. The build quality also feels premium and durable, and the overall design looks sleek and modern. Combined with excellent software optimization and powerful hardware, this device feels like a complete package. Overall, the Galaxy S26 Ultra is a powerful, reliable smartphone that pushes the limits of what a flagship device can offer.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was using the still very capable S22 Ultra. Sadly, the antenna stopped working, and I barely had a signal most of the time. So, more of a need to upgrade than anything else. However, I am enjoying the new S26 Ultra. Very smooth and fast, opening and using different apps, browsing, games, and streaming. The screen is top notch, the colors pop nicely, the refresh rate makes everything look fluid, smooth, perfect. It doesn't matter if it's movies, YouTube, my own videos, games, it looks awesome. Listening to music is great too, the speakers work flawlessly and the volume is good. I love taking pictures, and the picture quality, improved from the 22 series. The horizon lock is outstanding. And the way Samsung integrated the Galaxy AI is very intuitive, but also, the device allows to cut back or integrate as much as you want. I personally don't use it as much, but the options to edit images and video, very nice. Battery life is good, but nothing incredible. Hopefully they'll improve that soon. The s-pen is good, but I do miss some of the Bluetooth capabilities. Especially for controlling some camera functions. And the privacy display is pretty useful, I just set it to work with certain apps and pop up notifications. I haven't experienced any discomfort with it at all. All in all, a great phone, the display and speed are great, I'll need more time to compare the camera results, but so far, I am enjoying the upgrade.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently upgraded to the S26 Ultra and after a week, I have never enjoyed my experience with a phone. The camera quality is amazing and offers some crazy stabilization for videos. It makes getting some high quality shots similar to professional cameras easy. I love the use of Galaxy AI! I do not have much experience with it just yet, but I am slowly using it in my every day life with work and home tasks. I am very happy with my upgrade and I cant wait to learn more about the features of this phone
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really love the ai in the gallery how you can literally type anything and it will implement it to your image like u came turn a sky pic into a whole galaxy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have just replaced my S24 Ultra with the New S26 Ultra,1T, Unlocked phone, with the all new Galaxy AI onboard. This slick looking, fast acting phone has many new and improved feature. The colors are brighter and clearer. The already great cameras with the Ultra wide to 100x zoom is even better than before. If you are serious about great pictures and great Galaxy AI features, this is definitely the phone to have.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm in love, I thought 1 year apart (i had s25 ultra) wouldn't make a big difference but it did. I got beautiful grey phone, cameras look outstanding. The new screen feature aka spy screen is exactly what I needed since I dont like screen protectors. Galaxy ai is the beast now I don't need my any chat gpt anymore. I didn't expect such an improvement.
