Love my new phone!
on July 2, 2026
Posted by: Daisy1618
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Finally upgraded from my previous galaxy. This phone has a very nice look and feel to it- it's sturdy and seems to do well when dropped.
So far I've used some of the Galaxy AI features and the privacy screen that turns on when I type in a password. I think the privacy screen function could be stronger, but overall very useful to have built into a phone!

Great features, easy to use, super battery life

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This phone makes gaming so easy I'm spending more time playing . 1Tb memory makes storing all my data easy and the available RAM is huge. The galaxy AI does almost everything for you, and the battery life is great ! It's easy to hold and has a pen for notes ,etc. Mark photos or data for work presentations. I'm so glad I went the extra mile and bought it . Fast charging and holds it's battery life very well. I love it ❤️.

Great camera and integrated Ai quick edits
on July 2, 2026
Posted by: WhippetRun
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The phone is great, coming frim a Fold7 back to the slab qas a no brainer because the camera are really top notch
I am not a huge user of Ai, but the Galaxy Ai integration is seamless and easy to use, or not use, you don't feel forced into using it.
The updated Galaxy Ai for photo editing is something I use when I am editing older torn photos. It removes wrinkles faster and almost as clean as I can do, except it's one touch and done, not 15 minutes using clone or burn

Excellent phone, premium Samsung experience
on July 2, 2026

Early impressions of the Galaxy S26 Ultra are excellent. The display is sharp, bright, and smooth, and the phone feels fast across apps, multitasking, and everyday use. The camera system is impressive, especially for detailed shots and quick point-and-shoot photos. Battery life has been strong so far, and the overall build quality feels premium. This is exactly the kind of flagship experience I expect from Samsung.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Long Time Galaxy User (Since S3)
on July 2, 2026
Posted by: MdotCole7
from Houston, TX
I’ve been using the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra, and overall it’s been a solid phone. The battery life has been great for me, and I rarely end up running low unless I deliberately avoid charging it. The display is another standout, it’s bright, vibrant, and just looks really good in everyday use.
One feature I’m still a little torn on is the privacy screen. It’s definitely impressive, and when I’ve shown it to other people, they really can’t see much from the side. But at the same time, it does add a haze to the display that I’m not always a fan of. It’s one of those things that’s useful, but comes with a tradeoff.
Where I’m most disappointed is the camera. If the lighting is really good, it can take nice photos and decent video, but in anything less than ideal light, it starts to struggle. My family gives me a hard time about it all the time, and honestly, they’re starting to have a point. The 100X zoom is more of a gimmick than something I’d actually use, since it’s almost impossible to hold steady enough for a usable shot, and even when you do, the result usually ends up blurry and pixelated.
That said, the phone is fast, responsive, and feels well built. I’ve been a Samsung user since the S3, and that’s not changing anytime soon. I do think the camera could use some real improvement, and bringing back the memory card slot wouldn’t hurt either. Galaxy AI has been a mixed bag so far — some features are useful, but others feel like they were
