Upgraded from the S22 Ultra
on May 21, 2026
Posted by: MADDMADDERSON
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The S26 Ultra represents a significant advancement over the S22 Ultra, notably due to the elimination of curved glass edges. This device has proven to be exceptionally engaging, offering a wealth of features for exploration. I have configured the new privacy display to activate with a double-click of the power button. It would be beneficial to consider this as a default setting, given its utility and the potential for users to be unaware of this option.
My experience with the integrated AI has been largely positive, demonstrating considerable utility when operational. I intend to leverage its capabilities to refine the linguistic quality of this document upon completion. The photo AI, however, exhibits variable performance depending on the complexity of the request. I am not entirely satisfied with the available photo editing styles, particularly the resolution degradation that occurs when these images are set as a lock screen.
I have found the Galaxy AI assistants to be highly valuable, frequently utilizing them for general inquiries and rapid information retrieval. This feature stands out as one of the most commendable enhancements to the device.
Ultimately, the Galaxy AI suite transforms the device from a mere hardware powerhouse into an intuitive personal assistant, bridging the gap between complex tasks and effortless daily use.

Best Ultra yet...
on May 21, 2026
Posted by: SonnyW
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using the S26 ultra for a few days now and I can already tell, this is the best Ultra I've ever used. The Galaxy AI integration in the phone is seamless and provides so many awesome uses, like editing your photos, screening suspicious calls, transcribing your voicemail messages automatically to name a few. The new built in privacy display is such a cool feature as well and I was genuinely impressed when I first saw it in action . I opted for the online exclusive silver shadow color and I'm so glad I did, it's got this matte finish to it so there's barely any fingerprints . I had the S25 ultra before this and I love the fact that with the S26 ultra they made it even slimmer. I still meet great battery, with my use. My phones about 40% when I go to bed at night, and when I do have to charge it I can take advantage to the fastest ever charging available on a Samsung phone at 60W. Talking about the cameras, I thought the S25 ultra cameras were good but the S26 takes the camera quality a bit further. I feel like they take in more light compared to the S25 ultra so the photos look way better, especially at night. I've been having a great time with this device and I totally recommend it.

Great Upgrade
on May 21, 2026
Posted by: GalaxyYiyi
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've upgraded from an S24+ to the S26 Ultra, and I'm very happy with it! I love the new design and colors. Some of the new features I've been playing with for the past 24h and I love the new Galaxy AI, the privacy mode and (In my case) the S pen.
As always transfering everything from one Galaxy to the other was very smooth! And I've been using extra hours to organize everything again, the batteries life is great and it charges really fast.
I'm a loyal customer for a reason, and I can't wait to see how it will improve my daily routines.

This phone blew me away
on May 21, 2026
Posted by: LordChoppy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've always been an android user but the features on this phone has more capabilities than many laptops. It's truly addressed and serves your every whim in any manner you deem needed.
Pairing that with the advanced AI integration into things I didn't even know I could benefit from really blew me away. I feel under qualified for such a device but the seamless and usability of these features makes me feel like a tech pro.
