Powerful performance with Galaxy AI features...
on March 15, 2026
Posted by: Love2shop
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded from the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra to the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra and the improvement is noticeable. The performance is faster and everything feels very smooth in daily use. The display looks great and the privacy display feature is helpful when using the phone in public.
Galaxy AI features are actually useful. I especially like Audio Eraser for removing background noise from videos. It makes recordings much cleaner. Overall it feels like a solid upgrade with better performance, helpful AI tools, and a beautiful display.

Nice improvement from my s23 ultra!
on March 15, 2026
Posted by: TheSamsungDude
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been a long time Samsung fan going back over a decade. My s23 ultra has served me really well, but I've been waiting for the right flagship to replace it. The s26 ultra was the one! I love the new phone after just over a week of using it. Meaningful feedback that I hope is considered for future iterations: please bring back the Bluetooth S Pen! I'm not sure where the stats came from that showed it not being used.. much but if you look on Reddit and other online sources there are tens of thousands of customers who are also in the same boat wishing the Bluetooth SPen would have been brought back this year. Aside from that, way to go. Battery life seems to be great. The phone is lightning fast. The camera is awesome. The Galaxy AI features are neat -- especially when it comes to AI features tied to the gallery and camera. Thx!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved my Galaxy S23 Ultra, when fully charged it lasted more then a day and half without recharging. Camera and other features were excellant. One day it fell and cracked the screen. So i got S26Ultra.
Regarding Galaxy S26Ultra, its not much of an upgrade from S23Ultra, except it comes with Chalk full of AI features. The battery when fully charged doesn't even last a whole day with regular usuage.

Posted by: PodcastAllday
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm an very happy with my Galaxy AI S26 Ultra. There are not many functional changes from my S24, but the voice activation and traction has been improved. I used it daily for work including taking clear pictures of equipment. The resolution is amazing. The sounds settings with my buds is also a great improvement. I line the Dobly sound quality.
