More Galaxy AI features than I expected!
on March 14, 2026
Posted by: WascallyWabbit
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The most notable thing as I activated this phone was how many Galaxy AI features there were - much more than in the S25. In truth, there are more AI features than I have time to play around with. This phone anticipates my needs on various screens and offers me quick links to navigate me to where I need to go. I like simple things like the font. Moving my data/settings/info from my old Galaxy was very simple and straightforward since this new phone was preloaded with the app to facilitate the transfer of info and came with a cable to connect my old phone to this new phone (didn't have to go looking for a cable to connect them). All the data transferred very quickly.
One negative: with the camera lenses being so big and bulky, the phone does not sit flush/flat when laid down on a surface so it wobbles back and forth when you type or touch the screen to do anything. You have to hold the phone with your other hand to avoid the wobble. I decided to buy a stand to hold the phone which allows me to input data/use the phone for brief periods throughout the day without having to pick it up and not feel that annoying wobble.
The phone feels light in my hand. The screen seems fairly fingerprint resistant.
If I had to sum up how I feel about this phone, I would say: I LOVE IT!

Was not expecting this much greatness!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had my expectations set coming from a s24 ultra, but wow. This far surpassed those thoughts I had of what this phone would be. The privacy display is so awesome and works flawless. Not one complaint about it. Gemini makes the nuances of work so much more fun. Setting appointments, answer calls hands free, automating my office. And galaxy AI adjusting photos?.... makes me think I'm a pro photographer, haha. Battery life seems much better even though no hardware changes were made with the S26 in that regards. Still so happy to have the SPen for every day functions, photo editing, making notes, or just keeping the kids entertained. Samsung has done it again!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just got this phone and wow it's incredible. Coming from the 25 ultra, it's much lighter than my last one and the curved edges are nice in my hand. The camera is always the best you can get. Love the zoom feature. Somehow they made it even better this time around too. I can't find a single flaw yet! Galaxy ai is easy to use as well

Update fixed the flaw
on March 14, 2026

I cannot figure out how to update my review, so I'm just leaving a second one. I got a software update two days ago, and now the phone is working fine. I had to remove the Google update so my Android Auto would work, but other than that, the phone is working fine now. So a very rough five days, but after that it is great. No shutting off in the middle of the night. The battery is good for about 3 days for me. Features are great, and I love the camera.

Great phone!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded from the S23 Ultra to the new S26 Ultra and I ALMOST love the phone...The ONLY thing I hate about the phone is the camera design...It sticks out too much to where my phone doesn't lay flat creating a wobble when trying to perform touch screen functions such as using the calculator...I'm looking for a case that will help it lay flat...Other than that, I really don't like the new Google messages app and wish you would bring back the old Samsung messages app...

This phone has great features
on March 14, 2026
Posted by: Luckystar
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first Ultra phone from Samsung and I am enjoying it so far. The S pen is great, I'm having fun and feeling fancy while using it. The built it privacy screen is great, I do not notice any lower performance for the brightness, especially indoors. The Galaxy AI features are there, I haven't had a need to try them, but I do enjoy the circle to search function. I use my phone for mobile gaming and watching YouTube and, for example, the CODM experience on this phone is amazing.

S26 ultra review
on March 14, 2026
Posted by: Jaktripper
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The real reason I purchased this Oconee was for the privacy mode. Other than that, not many difference from my s25 ultra. The phone feels more sleeker. The camera takes more clearer pictures as well. Not a lot of features have changed but I will be looking more into it to more out of my phone.
