Excellent product. Worth the wait
on May 21, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This device is currently my preferred mobile phone. I previously owned the Galaxy S23 Ultra and subsequently upgraded to the S26 Ultra, which represented a significant enhancement for my needs. The privacy display feature is particularly noteworthy, as it eliminates the necessity for external privacy screen protectors, thereby preventing any consistent dimming of the screen. The battery life is exceptional. I consistently utilize my phone for communication, audio playback, and recording purposes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a heavy phone user whether it's for gaming, with work, galaxy AI, texting, etc. This is the first time I've got the newest phone and I have been pleasantly surprised.
It has an extremely smooth interface and long battery life which I am happy about. It's very user friendly and the stylis is extremely sensitive which works for me personally.

Great Upgrade from my S24 Ultra
on May 21, 2026
Posted by: LuvmyS26Ultra
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Besides its slightly thinner body, my new S26 Ultra has more rounded corners which combined with the newer Gorilla Armor front glass, the S26 Ultra will survive even harsher treament. Surviving 2M drops and scratches. The faster processor and memory really help the enhanced Galaxy AI features. Love using the AI on photos to search quickly. It is extremely accurate. I added the new Buds4 Pro. They look and perform great! Probably the best buds yet.

This phone has great screen improvements

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] S26 ultra is a masterclass in refinement proving that innovation don't requires always a redesign. The standout feature is the new privacy display. It's a genuine innovative piece that let's you switch to a built in privacy screen saving you from awkward screen protectors. Also the features in the camera with the horizontal lock that keeps your footage perfectly level even if you spin the phone
There are a lot of improvement. This is a fantastic upgrade that brings genuine hardware features to the table. Thanks samsung

A much improved S24Ultra
on May 21, 2026
Posted by: Phranque
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved my S24Galaxy Ultra and felt that the new S26 Ultra was well worth getting. The transition was great, and everything transferred so easily, including Samsung pass. I had a hard time packing my s24 and sending it in for tradein, and I would have loved to keep it as a spare...But the new S26 quickly changed my mind.
I have had Samsung S Ultra phones since my Note 20, and love all the features available. I only wish I could use all of them easily. I love my Galaxy buds and Ai watches, and that completes my phone needs.
S26 is a terrific product, and is so much better than Iphones...

Cam's amazing. Screens amazing. Brightness ehh
on May 21, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really loved the phone. I had the as 25 old trip before this and I think it's a major upgrade, the 65 watt charging charges my phone faster than I thought imaginable. The screen looks amazing in comparison, the only downside is the brightness is kind of shot and there's been many of times where it's just not bright enough at all for me. Especially when I'm outside which is a surprise and also a hindrance. Outside of that, though, I really am loving the phone, and I think it was a worthy upgrade. Everything about it from the weight to the feel. It all is amazing, even if it doesn't weigh less, and I don't know if it's the case that I have, but it's all fantastic. If they could get the brightness locked in, even when the privacy setting is on on-sun some apps are not. It needs to be adjusted and the adaptive brightness definitely doesn't work where I'm constantly having to swipe up on the brightness just to get it visible. I heard that they were creating it so that if you're wearing glasses, sunglasses, that it will make it easier to see. But when I'm wearing my sunglasses, I can hardly see anything. If they could fix those things, it would be fantastic all around. And for anyone who says that the camera quality hasn't upgraded their wrong because my shots look fantastic. Bixby is as bad as it has always been and I wish that they can fix that because it's really not of much use at all.
