Best product from Samsung.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ergonomics: It's slimmer and lighter than last year's model, It fits in a pocket, but you'll definitely feel it there.
The camera "island" on the back is huge. If you put it on a table without a case, it wobbles significantly when you type.
The clear "wow" factor this year is the Privacy Display. Unlike those plastic screen protectors you buy at the mall, this is built into the glass.
If you travel a lot the privacy screen is a lifesaver on plane.

Samsung does it again...and again!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Being in the performing arts and having to create content or record auditions at home can be nerve racking when you don't have the "professional" grade equipment...but my new S26 ultra calms those nerves! From the show palm to record so I don't have to worry about losing my perfect lighting to step over to the phone, to the superb camera and microphone to the GalaxyAI features to erase noise and unwanted images during editing...this phone is a game changer. The stylus helps when I don't want to feel like I'm using a phone and talk it old school and feel like I'm using a pen and paper. The screen sized is great for when I call my mom on WhatsApp and I can minimize that app and check my email, pay a bill or surf the web for clarification on whatever new thing my mom says for me to look at. Keep pushing the envelope on phones Samsung!

Great phone with excellent performance

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Galaxy AI is a key part of this phone as you can see it everywhere. At first I thought it would be bad, but turns out I am quite enjoying it. The fact this system is learning my habits and is able to improve my day to day without me having to do anything is great. Galaxy AI wallpaper is very cool. Shows me the weather change without having to look at the weather. The best part to me is the battery life. Because the phone is learning my habits, the battery had been wonderful. Highly recommend

Major upgrade from past models
on March 13, 2026
Posted by: Antares
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Currently using the s26 ultra and I'm blown away by the device and it's features. I recently upgraded from a past Samsung device and it's like night and day. Everything from the Galaxy Ai for quick photo edits. To the beautiful screen and clarity. I highly recommend upgrading to this beautiful device.

S26 ultra
on March 13, 2026
Posted by: Skyblue2026
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had the phone for about a week now. And the way the device feels on your hand compared to the last two is a big difference,in a good way. The rounded edges makes it more comfortable to hold for longer period or time.
I've noticed the battery lasts a little bit longer than the s25 ultra that I had under the same stress or everyday use as well. The screen with the privacy feature is a game changer even though there is a difference in the color between the s26 ultra and the s25 ultra. The privacy feature works. Camera looks better as well and all of the galaxy Ai features are amazing a lot to discover with them.

Blazing fast performance, a powerful 200MP camera
on March 13, 2026
Posted by: Zebiggy2009
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Blazing fast performance, a powerful 200MP camera, and a gorgeous 6.9" AMOLED display make this one of the top Android phones of 2026. Battery easily lasts a full day and Samsung’s new AI features add some smart automation and photo editing tools.
An excellent flagship if you’re upgrading from a phone 2–3 years old —agentic AI smartphone
