This phone is smashing
on April 8, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's very fast. I love that it has 1 terabyte of memory storage. It does everything I could ever want and need. My last phone wax the s21 Ultra from 2021 so it was obviously time for an upgrade! Best phone out right now hands down!

This Is a Game Changer!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new 6.9-inch Privacy Display is a game-changer, keeping your data invisible to shoulder-surfers while staying incredibly bright in direct sun.
This is the best and my favorite phone from Samsung I've bought. It's not gimmicky at all and has like a finished feel.
I am writing this not because I have to, I really am impressed with it and would recommend it.

Best phone i have ever bought
on April 8, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This phone is just so beautiful first off. It fits perfectly in yours hands and I love the way the camera looks coming out of the phone.
They have also implemented great Ai features into the 25 ultra that makes the navigation and doing tasks so much easier.
Don't even get me started on the display. The picture is unbelievably clear it is 2x as good as the 25 ultra. And the privacy mode is so incredibly useful in public areas.

The size is perfect!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Upgraded from the base s23 model and I am so happy with my decision. I just tested the Galaxy Ai editing feature the other day and it filled In the blanks so well, I was nothing but surprised. The large camera's take gorgeous photos aswell and the 200mp is amazing. The large screen with high resolution is nice for wanting to just lay in bed and watch something.

Better battery life
on April 8, 2026
Posted by: NickiB27
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded from a Galaxy s22 ultra and I'm truly impressed with the battery life on the s26 ultra. I recieve work email and teams messages all day long. I read my e-books during downtime, maps as I drive from one location to the next, and of course, calls and texts to stay in touch south my family. I get lost in streaming my favorite series and still have battery left at the end of the day.
I don't use the privacy screen feature as it really does sacrifice the quality. Wireless charging is a lot harder with it being incredibly picky on how is placed which was never an issue with my previous phones.
I've also had major issues with connecting to my home wi-fi. I've contacted my provider, but as it's not an issue with any of my other devices, I can only assume it's the phone. Again, my Galaxy s22 and partner's s25 connect just fine.
All in all, I would say battery life seems to be the only real upgrade.

I absolutely love everything about it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Galaxy AI democratizes high-end content creation. The Generative Edit tools allow users to move or remove objects and intelligently fill in backgrounds, tasks that previously required professional software and skills. It doesn't just "fix" photos; it helps you realize the vision you had when you pressed the shutter.
The most impressive feat of Galaxy AI is its seamless integration into the core user experience. Features like Circle to Search redefine information gathering—no more switching apps or typing out descriptions; a simple gesture provides instant answers. It turns the entire screen into a portal for discovery.

WONDERFUL PERFORMANCE
on April 8, 2026
Posted by: TONMICH
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the speed and clarity of the amoled screen. Everything is so free flow in anything your trying to do. It's such a pleasure to maneuver around. I had the s24 ultra and was a little hesitant to trade it in but I'm so glad I did and have a device is actually better. The feel of the phone is also a plus. Using the spen is fantastic, although I'll be honest don't use it that often. Just love the smoothness of going from one app to another.
