Great features and camera
on August 10, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am absolutely thrilled with the Galaxy S26 Ultra! From the sleek, premium design to the lightning-fast performance, it completely exceeds expectations. The camera system is phenomenal, capturing crisp, vibrant photos in any lighting condition, and the integrated S Pen is as responsive and useful as ever. The battery easily lasts through a busy day of multitasking, and the display is bright, immersive, and gorgeous to look at. Samsung has truly knocked it out of the park with this flagship device. Highly recommended to anyone looking for the absolute best smartphone experience!

Best Samsung Yet!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I left Samsung S22+ to try the pixel 9pro. What a mistake that was! I chose to come back to Samsung's platform and went with the 26 Ultra.
This phone is awesome for every day tasks. Whether I'm signing a document, taking a note, or coloring with the S-Pen it does it all. I'm not a big phone gamer, so I don't play many games, but for the everyday family person, it does it all. It keeps everyone organized with the calendar. I love the side bar for quick apps and favorite contacts. It keeps me connected with video calls to family members. I really can't think of a better device to use. I live how it pairs with my Galaxy watch Ultra too.
I think Samsung has the market and thought of the everyday person. This really wasn't an overnight development and it shows they really do listen to their customers feedback and seeing market trends.
Thanks again!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Ultra mainly on the photo capabilities and the zoom. I didn't want to carry camera & phone to the football games but my son needs professional level photos and videos. The screen size is super large and honestly have zero complaints!

The S26 Ultra is a great choice

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had an older S series phone and it needed replaced. I chose to get the S26 Ultra due to the cameras and AI features. It was a great choice and I will chose it again.

Great phone
on August 10, 2026
Posted by: LovelyFreak08
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my samsung s26 Ultra! I chose this phone because of the camera and the editing abilities. I specifically like being able to erase things in pictures, it's thankfully been updated to be able to do that!
I play games on it often and the battery lasts for at least 6-8 hours with playing for extended periods. I do tend to spend a lot of time on my device so my battery doesn't last as long as most. I love the ultra fast charging though so I can get back to doing whatever I need/want to.
My only complaints are that the camera placement makes it nearly impossible to have a wallet on the back of your phone. I wish they would find a different setup for the camera so that it easily fits the wallet. The other complaint is that the s pen doesnt work correctly with magnetic accessories. I don't know if that's something samsung can fix but it'd be great if it could be.
Overall, the S26 Ultra meets and exceeds my expectations for my phone. It has everything I could ask for and more!

Great camera

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Samsung Galaxy 26 Ultra because I loved the camera and the phone itself. However, I really wish they would not of got rid of the S pen being Bluetooth as it made taking pictures really easy from a distance so we could all be together in a family Picture

Honestly the best phone I've had for school
on August 10, 2026
Posted by: Campuslife26
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the S26 Ultra mostly because my old phone couldn't keep up with my class schedule anymore, and so far it's been a solid upgrade. The screen is honestly great for reading through slides and PDFs, even when I'm sitting outside between classes and the sun is glaring right at it.
The stylus surprised me the most. I wasn't sure I'd actually use it, but I've been taking notes with it during lectures and it just feels more natural than typing everything out. Random doodles in the margins too, not gonna lie.
Camera-wise, I've been snapping pics of whiteboards after class so I don't lose track of stuff, and they come out clear even when the lighting in the room is bad. Battery has held up through a full day of back-to-back classes plus scrolling on breaks, which is more than I can say for my last phone.
It's also just fun to use outside of school stuff, streaming shows at night, gaming when I need a break. Not a perfect phone, but it's handled everything I've thrown at it so far
