Excellent Upgrade
on March 13, 2026
Posted by: AndroidFan123
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the screen, battery, and just the whole package that Samsung has released.
Pros-
-Battery is a noticable improvement. I had an S24 Ultra and this is a major improvement on that
-Samsung gives great trade in deals in its initial weeks. Don't miss those. They're truly great value
-I like this flat matte style display too. The best in the market by far
-Charging speeds, especially wireless charging are a huge plus

Cons-
-I would've liked for the S-pen to continue having the Bluetooth. It does come in handy at times
-Si-C battery could have been looked at, especially for the Ultra models

Not so Good
on March 13, 2026
Posted by: Daleduro13
Camera still sucks in selfie mode. The AI feature to grammar check your spelling still censors you. This phone is as fast/laggy as my S23 ultra, nothing seems like an update on this phone. My Iphone17 pro max 1TB was cheaper than this phone and has better quality all around. Samsung sucks now
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This is an amazing device
on March 13, 2026
Posted by: Th3W0rstGuy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like having an "Ultra" model. The privacy display option has come in handy already - I was using my bank app on a packed NYC subway and feared nothing because no one could see my info from their angle. I'm still loading my other apps but the overall feel is great. It's much lighter of a phone than the previous version - I had a S25 Ultra before; it was great too but this 26 Ultra just feels better.
I also like the AI support for a few apps. I'm learning more about AI as a whole from using this phone more.

Best Android Phone Out There
on March 13, 2026
Posted by: CoffeeBeans
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For a long time, I've always wanted an Ultra model for its camera as I really love to do photography (nature, food, life, and some portraits). Before I switched to this phone, I was using the S25 (a major camera upgrade coming from being an S21 user). Now that I'm an S26 Ultra user, I had high expectations of this smartphone.
Fortunately, the S26 Ultra came just in time the day before my hike so I decided to have this beast set up for the hike. I was amazed by the photos I took and the video quality. For one of my photos, I used Galaxy AI to remove someone from a photo I really liked.
I really like how snappy the S26 Ultra is at its performance. The screen quality seems to be better than the S25 as well.
Overall, I'm really happy with this smartphone and I'm glad I got the chance to get this phone. Many more great photos are ahead of me, especially in preparation for my trip to Japan!

The new phone is incredible
on March 13, 2026
Posted by: Cnzcia
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new S26 ultra is a big improvement from my previous phone. I was surprised on the camera quality mainly, the picture clarity and the new video stabilization is nice. The privacy screen is a nice touch when in public and the Galaxy AI is a good debriefing summary of my day, it helps me wothh some tasks and to find nice places to go to.

Good investment
on March 13, 2026
Posted by: Anonymous
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I say that it is a good investment because it has what it takes to meet you for many, many years, it certainly has the possibility of being the longest-lived phone of this time in the future.
