This phone has so many advanced features
on September 7, 2026
Posted by: John69
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I selected this telephone as an upgrade from the Samsung Ultra 24 to the Samsung Ultra 26, and I was impressed by the advanced features security. Two years ago, I had a different brand of phone & was looking for a phone that would receive ongoing feature updates & possess unparalleled security capability.
While I was browsing in my local phone store, another customer approached me and mentioned that he is a truck driver. He stated that purchasing a Samsung Ultra Phone was the best decision he had ever made
He explained that the device receives constant updates for security & new features, along with possessing a highly intelligent AI. He further mentioned that he travels extensively throughout the U.S.A & has never encount any problem
Following a 30-minute conversation with this customer, I made the decision to purchase my first Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. I was particularly impressed by the consistent security updates, general updates, and new features.
It played videos with a clear, sharp picture, & the sound was sufficiently loud to enjoy movies. The camera captured images of superior quality
The amount of memory the phone came was more sufficient for use with any application or game I utilized on the phone.
I never experienced dropped calls & consistently had a strong signal regardless of my location. The phone demonstrates significant effectiveness in combating spam and phishing attempts. I decided to purchase the new model the following year, which I did.

The best Galaxy S Series yet!!
on September 7, 2026
Posted by: ColortheGalaxy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose to upgrade from the Galaxy S 23 Ultra to the Galaxy S26 Ultra. Overall performance is efficient. I'm enjoying the battery optimization and how long it stays charged even after playing YouTube Music for 8+ hours a day. The interface on this is above expectations. The new privacy control feature, is one that I did not expect to need. I love how you can control the percentage of how dark you want it due to the angles of the screen. Also, the new updates to the Security and Privacy settings is stellar!!! I'm really enjoying the screening of calls feature all the settings!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hello,
I am well-plessed with my S26 Ultra. It fits perfectly in my hand, it's lightweight, and feels study. Music is awesome from the device speakers and it sounds great coming out of my earbuds.

The privacy setting is nice, as I take public transportation and often find myself in crowded spaces.
NFC is super fast. I was used to my old phone taking 3-5 seconds to process a payment, with the S26 Ultra it takes 1 second.
Processing speed seems fine.
I like all the personalization seetings. I'm using Vivid for screen mode, dark mode, adaptive color tone, and screen resolution is QHD.
The S pen is great, although; I dont use it much. I just use it to show off.

The device come in a handsome package.
Aftrter comparing this phone to other flagship phones I prefer this one way better.

I love this phone l
on September 7, 2026
Posted by: June2bug
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First, this is the fifth S series phone I've gotten from Samsung. The phone works so easy for me. I don't get spam calls anymore just with the phone and the software installed on it. It's fast going from one application to another. It answers the phone call for me if it thinks that it's a spam call.
I just love it. Also, I didn't put on a case on it this time. All the other phones I had i did. This phone feels nice in your hands. Like silk and easy to operate. Junebug

Battery Exiting the Chat
on September 7, 2026
Posted by: MarisaMoments1
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose to believe the battery depletion is due to my aggressive use of photo storage. However, upon learning that storage and battery aren't married, I started to realize my phone is over me.
To be fair, all apps are great.
The camera is top-notch.
The camera is top-notch.
Other than my battery depleting in front of my face, it's the bee's knees.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Galaxy s26 Ultra is great but it's glitchy. It'll turn on apps without asking and it just seems to have weird glitches but besides that it's an awesome phone I love the easy which I use it.
