Happy to upgrade from my s22 ultra
on May 21, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my ultra for personal use and work and it's been an awesome upgrade from my s22 ultra. The privacy screen is a great feature, the overall screen is crisp and clear. The updated Galaxy AI features are so fun and easy to use, adding some features i didn't know I wanted in a phone.
I'm excited to keep using it.

Out of word, legendary level 💯 🙌

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The grip of the phone is legendary, the Silver color is out of this world, and the Purple is iconic—I actually bought both! As a loyal Samsung user who has upgraded from the Note 20 to the S23 Ultra, and most recently the S25 Ultra, I can confidently say the S26 Series is the ultimate evolution.
I’ve been a tech enthusiast for years, but the Galaxy S26 is the first device that feels like it’s actually living in the future. The sheer performance is staggering; it handles the most demanding creative tasks and high-end gaming without breaking a sweat. It’s not just a phone; it’s a powerhouse that makes everything else feel obsolete.
The real legend here, however, is the Galaxy AI. It has completely redefined my mobile experience. From the mind-blowing generative photo editing to the seamless real-time translations, the smart assistance is nothing short of magical. It’s intuitive, lightning-fast, and genuinely helpful in a way that feels like it’s one step ahead of me. Samsung hasn't just built a smartphone; they’ve built a masterpiece of artificial intelligence. If you want the absolute pinnacle of technology, the S26 Series is in a class of its own.
Note: The transition to Google Messages as the default instead of Samsung Messages is a huge win for the user experience. By adopting the RCS standard natively, the S26 ensures seamless, high-quality messaging, better encryption, and smoother media sharing. It’s a smart move that prioritizes global connectivity and a cleaner.

Worthy s23 ultra upgrade
on May 21, 2026
Posted by: Bakersbread
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This device with all the Galaxy Ai features is pretty wild. I did not think I would like them as much as I do. Figured it would be a gimmick but with all the simple tasks it just does for me is pretty amazing. Gaming on this is a beast! Streaming Netflix and Disney plus and such works amazing. Privacy screen works much better in person than on videos and the best of all was the transition from my old phone to the new one. Seemless! It even transfered my Sim info! Unbelievable! It changed everything over! Been hesitant to upgrade from my s23 ultra 1tb model. Worthy upgrade!

I love my new galaxy s26 ultra!
on May 21, 2026
Posted by: MissDana
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just received my new Galaxy s26 ultra, yesterday. I absolutely love it! All the new Galaxy AI features are so cool! The in-call translator, is especially impressive. It's so cool that you can be on a phone call with someone who speaks another language, and in real time, have the phone translate out loud for you what they're saying and vice versa.
