Almost perfect

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] AI works great, lots of assistance for everything you are going to do and makes it too easy for you to find the menus you are looking for. Power is also going very well, my only setback would be the battery, which although it gives you the day of use personally, I prefer that they abandon that war for the finer phone and I think it is better to have a phone a little thicker but with more battery.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am loving the privacy features of the new s26 galaxy phone. Also the upgraded phone spam features and Galaxy AI has been a blessing. I am really glad I did an upgrade to the new s26.

New Phone Same Phone

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While the Galaxy AI is cool and engaging but honestly I went from a S23 Ultra to this 26 model and I truly feel my previous phone was bigger that I liked and allowed me to use older apps such as the Numberpad Keyboard because the T9 keyboard is very complicated on this device. It could option to save added words like slang to dictionary and a space bar where the 0 would be while allowing the prediction to work better. The new camera itself is great especially for close up in depth photos. I do wish charger boxes would be a thing again as with what phones are costing now there should be more included not less. I've been Team Samsung for years such as washers, televisions and phones but I feel lately they are doing too much to compare phone wise to the "fruit phone". While the phone is nice I sadly don't feel it was worth the jump I expected when upgrading.

Amazing phone, amazing features

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Okay so I've had the S26 Ultra for a little while now and I keep recommending it to people unprompted which probably says everything.
The camera got me first. I'm not a photography person at all — I just want my photos to look good without having to think about it. And they do. Every time. I took some shots at a family dinner last week, bad lighting, everyone moving around, and they came out better than photos I've planned and set up on other phones. The Galaxy AI quietly cleans everything up in the background and honestly I don't fully understand what it's doing but my photos look way better than they have any right to.
Battery is the other thing. I used to be that person with a portable charger in every bag. I haven't touched mine since I switched. I'm on my phone constantly and I'm still getting through full days without even thinking about it. It's such a simple thing but it changes how you use your phone.
The privacy screen I was honestly skeptical about before I had it. Seemed like a gimmick. Now I use it every single day. On the train, at cafes, anywhere I'm doing something I don't need strangers seeing. You just turn it on and the screen basically goes invisible to anyone not looking straight at it. I didn't realize how often I was self-conscious about my screen until I wasn't anymore.
Is it expensive? Yeah. But I've stopped thinking about upgrading which for me is the real test.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Galaxy AI is a great tool to have added to the phone. You would be surprised how well it works. If you don't have one, get one.
