Screen size and speed are fantastic.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the Galaxy AI feature. It lets me create and do so many different things on my phone. My Samsung 26 Ultra is the perfect phone for work, gaming, creating videos and taking pictures. I pre-ordered mine so I wouldn't have to wait for it to be on back order. Thanks Samsung for giving us a great phone.

Great feel and epic user interface!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just got this phone and wow it's incredible. Coming from the 25 ultra, it's much lighter than my last one and the curved edges are nice in my hand. The camera is always the best you can get. Love the zoom feature. Somehow they made it even better this time around too. I can't find a single flaw yet! Galaxy ai is easy to use as well

Was not expecting this much greatness!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had my expectations set coming from a s24 ultra, but wow. This far surpassed those thoughts I had of what this phone would be. The privacy display is so awesome and works flawless. Not one complaint about it. Gemini makes the nuances of work so much more fun. Setting appointments, answer calls hands free, automating my office. And galaxy AI adjusting photos?.... makes me think I'm a pro photographer, haha. Battery life seems much better even though no hardware changes were made with the S26 in that regards. Still so happy to have the SPen for every day functions, photo editing, making notes, or just keeping the kids entertained. Samsung has done it again!

More Galaxy AI features than I expected!
on March 14, 2026
Posted by: WascallyWabbit
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The most notable thing as I activated this phone was how many Galaxy AI features there were - much more than in the S25. In truth, there are more AI features than I have time to play around with. This phone anticipates my needs on various screens and offers me quick links to navigate me to where I need to go. I like simple things like the font. Moving my data/settings/info from my old Galaxy was very simple and straightforward since this new phone was preloaded with the app to facilitate the transfer of info and came with a cable to connect my old phone to this new phone (didn't have to go looking for a cable to connect them). All the data transferred very quickly.
One negative: with the camera lenses being so big and bulky, the phone does not sit flush/flat when laid down on a surface so it wobbles back and forth when you type or touch the screen to do anything. You have to hold the phone with your other hand to avoid the wobble. I decided to buy a stand to hold the phone which allows me to input data/use the phone for brief periods throughout the day without having to pick it up and not feel that annoying wobble.
The phone feels light in my hand. The screen seems fairly fingerprint resistant.
If I had to sum up how I feel about this phone, I would say: I LOVE IT!

I'm so glad I switched
on March 14, 2026
Posted by: Fanatic26u
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly, I am so glad I finally made the switch to the S26 Ultra. If you’ve been on the fence, let me tell you—the hype is actually real this time.
First off, the display is just gorgeous. Coming from the s24u, the brightness and the colors on this thing are insane. But what’s actually cool is the new privacy screen, it’s one of those "options" you didn't know you needed until you had it. I can scroll through my stuff in public and the person next to me can't see a thing. It’s super slick and makes the whole experience feel way more premium.
I’m usually skeptical about "AI" features, but Galaxy AI is surprisingly helpful. It’s not just gimmicks it actually makes the phone feel faster and helps out with little things like editing photos or organizing my day. It’s like the phone is actually thinking ahead for once.
My Favorite Part though is the camera.
It's the absolute winner for me. It is easily my favorite part of the whole upgrade.
I’ve been taking shots that look like they came off a professional DSLR. It picks up light in places where my eyes can barely see.
Even when I'm zoomed way in, the quality stays sharp instead of turning into a pixelated mess.
I’m seriously impressed. If you're looking for a reason to upgrade, the camera alone makes it worth it.
