Fast, powerful, battery power for days
on August 17, 2026
Posted by: Jdmackes
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been loving the phone so far as it's faster and more powerful than my s25 ultra was. I think the biggest difference for me has been the battery life though, as it seems like I finish the day at around 40-50% every day now (and I only charge to 80%).
I've also really enjoyed emulating games on this phone, which is part of the reason I chose to upgrade in the first place. I wanted to get 16 gigs of ram so I could emulate certain PC games on the phone, and it's really done a great job with everything I've thrown at it. It's surprisingly cool to the touch as well, as my s25 ultra used to heat up quite a bit.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the phone, but the lack of Bluetooth codecs needs a software update. Also no satellite without subscription.

This is a good phone

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the newest phone it is a good phone but because its new all the kinks haven't been worked out. The magnet for the stylist throws off the internal compass and throws off the GPS signal at times.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose this phone because I am a fan of the galaxy series phones but this has been the worst galaxy phone I own I am constantly turning it off and back on to reset my wifi and Bluetooth connections when they randomly drop and disconnect or when I leave my house and come back home I have to restart my phone to reconnect to my wifi when I get home

Powerful Features Packed in a Single Device
on August 17, 2026
Posted by: Grim98
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had been looking around for an upgrade, and through careful consideration, I had chosen the S26 Ultra as my final choice. This device did not disappoint.
The screen quality is incredible, with rich colors and a detailed display that is touch-sensitive for those of us who tap lightly.
The built-in privacy display is a serious upgrade for those who do want the option to turn it on and off and choose what it's used for, and the increased brightness and anti-reflective coating are perfect for bright rooms and ultra sunny days.
Its processor and RAM are quality for everyday performance-from gaming to watching videos to researching and traveling, this phone can handle it all, all with a battery that lasts.
The phone's camera is colorful and detail-rich, capturing even the smallest items, or zooming in so far you can capture beautiful shots of the moon in all its wonderful glory.
Lastly, my favorite extra for this phone is the added S Pen for convenience and easy-to-use hands-free tasks and fun.
I am pretty satisfied with my purchase and will be looking forward to seeing what else is brought to the table in the future.
