Snappy little fellow

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is a powerhouse, especially with Galaxy AI making things like photo editing and live translations incredibly simple. Using the Galaxy is smooth, though some features might need you to dive into the settings to enable them. It's a top choice for productivity and creativity."
And yes I used Gemini to write this

I love the galaxy line of phones

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I move up yo the S26 ultra from an S22 ultra. The screen is a bit sharper, the cameras are much better and the galaxy AI is useful for editing my pictures.
For the most part, I use my S26 for work. I take tons of pictures, I talk to clients daily and compose emails. I like that I can split screen with different apps so I can multitask.
With that being said, I am a little disappointed overall. I used the S22 ultra for 4 years with no problems and decided I needed an exceptional new phone, but the S26 only has just a few features that my previous phone didn't have. I was expecting to be blown away, but instead, I was slightly wowed. I've had my new phone for a little over a week now so hopefully I discover much more that I haven't had time to explore.

Great Device! - needs more?

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The device seems polished! Great new features... but I am upgrading from the S24 Ultra and do miss the Bluetooth S-pen. I'm not sure if that feature would come back but I'm hopeful. Also the S-pen is not slimmer which isn't the best for me personally.
Overall, the device is great! Loving the software and new/polished features

Love this phone

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a Samsung fangirl and proud of it. I got the S26 ultra during the unpacked event. I got the buds 4 pro with them.
I also assisted my husband in getting the S26 ultra and my sibling's and their spouses. Because if I'm gonna get the best phone, we all gonna have the best phone, we use it for everyday life. For work, for play to take pictures of our kids. We take pictures of our pets. We use the gemini to identify different things like like if we're making sourdough, what flour is that on the ground?Have the kids getting in on it?It's wonderful phone to have.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought the S26 ultra for the privacy display and it doesn't disappoint. The galaxy AI feature for answering calls is a plus.

Great phone upgrade!
on March 19, 2026
Posted by: JrolyatS
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Coming from a Fold 5, I had to get accustomed to the width of the S26 Ultra which is definitely a wider phone than what I was used to. I think I'm a little comfortable with it now, even though some days I wish it weren't as wide as it is. A surprise that I got was getting the pen with the phone. I was not expecting it to come with the pen. One other difference was how light the S26 Ultra is compared to the Fold 5. My previous phone was much more weightier than my new phone, which is a plus! I haven't tried the Galaxy AI but when I do, I will update my review. Thanks Samsung for another banger of a phone!
