It's beast of a phone,packed with amazing features

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The S26 Ultra features the first-ever built-in Privacy Display.
No More Peeping: You can limit the viewing angle so that people next to you (like on a bus or elevator) can’t see your screen.
It can automatically turn on for sensitive tasks, like when you're entering a PIN or password.
PRO-LEVEL CAMERA UPGRADES with a Massive 200MP Sensor: The main camera now has a wider f/1.4 aperture, which lets in nearly 47% more light than the S25 Ultra for much better night photos.
It features a quad-camera system, including a 50MP periscope lens with 5x optical zoom and 10x optical-quality zoom, also with a wider aperture for clearer long-distance shots.
THE AI MAGIC got Photo Assist tools it allow me to describe changes in plain English—like asking to "change my outfit" or "restore a missing piece of a cake" in a photo—and the AI does it instantly.
It got the Fastest Processor: It runs on the custom Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy, delivering 39% faster AI performance and 24% better graphics for gaming.
Despite the power, it’s the slimmest Ultra yet at just 7.9mm thick, with more rounded corners for a more comfortable grip. It now supports Super Fast Charging 3.0, reaching a 75% charge in just 30 minutes.
Samsung is promising 7 years of security and OS updates, meaning this phone will stay current until 2033.
Durability: It uses Titanium or Armor Aluminum frames (depending on the region/model) and Corning Gorilla Armor 2 for elite scratch and drop resistance.

Galaxy S26 Ultra
on March 14, 2026
Posted by: NaNa12
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm absolutely loving the purple S26 ultra. The privacy feature is amazing, I love the emoji animations. The AI features are really nice and helpful I am new to AI so I have to play around with it more to learn it, so that I can get the best out of AI. Overall I love the design of the phone. The cameras are always amazing I can't wait to take some pictures of the moon and playing with the settings in the camera. I've patiently waited for the pre-order & now it's in my hand.

Another winner

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just switched to the Galaxy s26 ultra. I have had their version of the phone with stylus since it was first released. The process of switching phones, once dreaded, continues to get easier. I have not yet fully explored the AI features. The camera is still amazing and the display is fantastic.

Extra fast processing
on March 14, 2026
Posted by: ChefBlvk
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Big, bad, and capable of anything thrown at it thanks to the help of "GalaxyAI" and it's like having an assistant without the extra cost. Made creating, editing, organizing to-do lists, creating my inventory, and order selection.
