This phone is better than my pixel.
on April 3, 2026
Posted by: UltraHappy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This phone is above and beyond what I had in my pixel. The galaxy ai is incredible and having it readily available during my daily tasks is a plus. I would highly recommend this phone to anyone.

The S26 Ultra is the GOAT
on April 3, 2026
Posted by: HomieHancho
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Where do I even begin? This is my second Galaxy device, and the experience has been seamless. Between the robust Galaxy AI features and the ability to produce professional-grade content, it’s a powerhouse. I’m particularly impressed by the desktop-level productivity—turning my phone into a full computer with Samsung Dex is a game-changer. The privacy display has also become essential for managing sensitive banking info in public. Having upgraded from the S25+ a month ago, I can confidently say it has exceeded every expectation.

I am more productive!
on April 2, 2026
Posted by: InoyIamhereagain
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wanted a new phone. I saw the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra was coming out within a month so I ordered it. I assumed the new technology would be OK. I did not expect it to be LIFE CHANGING! The "Now Brief" setting sorts through my tasks that I put in the "Reminder" App and my Google Calendar to tell me my upcoming tasks, and appointments for the next day. The best part is, if I go back to the Now Brief later in the day it tells me which tasks I haven't completed yet! So now I complete more tasks and forget less appointments! Galaxy AI also helps with suggested videos and weather content in my Now Brief. There are many new Galaxy AI features and I am still learning new ways to increase my productivity.
I almost forgot my other favorite part! The instant privacy screen setting! My kids sneak beside me to see what I am doing on my phone. THEY HAVE GIVEN UP TRYING from my sides! YaY! I just have to keep them from behind me.

on April 2, 2026
Posted by: THUMPEY
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The phone is amazing. I use the Galaxy AI all the time for everyday things. It's amazing how fast it works. The new phone is super smooth and wonderful. I have been using Samsung product and phones forever and will continue to use them. Iphones suck lol

Functional smooth product
on April 2, 2026
Posted by: 21Cisco
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After seeing this product on display, what gravitated me was it's multi functions through its AI capabilities, it's data processing and upgraded speed functions while navigating across several screens.

Mediocre Device
on April 2, 2026
Posted by: Lundy1980
from Ormond Beach FL
Cameras are the same as the last 4 years. The Display is not as color accurate as previous years due to the new "privacy Display feature" that makes the colors more washed out and Grey, battery life is a little better then previous years not by much, performance is a little better then the last 4 years of phones in the s series lineup, they did make the cooling chamber a bit bigger then last year's which helps with overheating but it can still be a problem at times especially while gaming or doing something intensive, the durability is about the same as 2 years ago except the screen is a little tougher they downgraded the frame of the device to the one used 2 years ago, otherwise its the same exact phone as the last 4 years so "upgrade" at your discretion
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Nice upgrade
on April 2, 2026
Posted by: Drinkzbydb
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's not a huge jump from the S24 Ultra for me. I do miss my pen that controlled phone features, but this new phone's camera is way better. So far, I've noticed the screen looks nicer and I really like my privacy screen.
