Awesome sauce

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love my Galaxy S26 Ultra! Samsung really delivered with this phone. From the moment I started using it, everything felt fast, smooth, and premium. The display is gorgeous, and the size is perfect for everything I do—from streaming movies and listening to music to working, browsing, taking photos, and staying connected.
The camera quality is incredible, especially when I want detailed, sharp photos. I also love how powerful and responsive the phone feels. Multitasking is effortless, apps open quickly, and I never feel like the phone is struggling to keep up with me.
As someone who uses Android exclusively, I appreciate how much freedom and customization Samsung gives me. There are so many features built into the S26 Ultra that I keep discovering new things I love about it.
The battery life has also been great for my everyday use, and the overall design feels like a true flagship phone. It’s sleek, powerful, versatile, and honestly just enjoyable to use.
For me, the Galaxy S26 Ultra is more than just a phone—it’s an everyday tool, entertainment device, camera, and productivity machine all in one. Samsung absolutely nailed this one. I’m extremely happy with my S26 Ultra and would definitely recommend it! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Fast, beautiful, and a major upgrade
on October 3, 2026
Posted by: JackBlack
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Galaxy S26 Ultra because I wanted a phone that could keep up with both work and everyday life and so far it has exceeded my expectations. The phone is extremely responsive, the display is Chris and vibrant, and the camera quality has been especially impressive. Photos come out clear and detailed even indoors and in less than perfect lighting. Multitasking is smooth, absolute quickly, and the battery has handled a full day of regular use without an issue. The s pen is also a useful addition for notes, work tasks, and precise control. Overall, the s26 ultra feels polished, powerful, and genuinely enjoyable to use. I'm still discovering features, but I'm very happy with it so far.

Disappointed - Not up to Samsung standards
on October 3, 2026
Posted by: GGAmma
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose to upgrade from S24 Ultra to S26 Ultra. We have been very loyal Samsung users for nearly 15 yrs and have always been happy. Do not get me wrong, there is always going to be, the one off, problematic device here and there. TVs have always been great as well. The tablet on the fridge, that was garage.
1st: camera protrudes so far on the front of the device that it problematic. Even with a case on, it still will NOT lie nowhere near flat.
2ND: ONE of my biggest gripes, voice to text. It does not matter whether I am screaming at it or speaking in a normal tone in a completely quiet area, it still messes up my words. It could be something simple to something extreme and it cannot get it right. It chooses to make my words conjunctions versus the words I am actually speaking. If I wanted it to type "I'm" I would say "I'm" but I want it to type "I am" because that is proper when you are typing verses the verbal conversation. AND no matter what, after how many years, you still cannot spell either one of my children's names correctly. 🙄
3rd:, I can no longer use my stylus as a shutter button for the camera.
4th, accuracy of the touch screen is tremendously off. I keep losing my game because it thinks I am tapping a place that I did not tap and not the actual place I did that.
5th: Over heating. This is hotter then my Note 8 ever got.
6th: Not always capitalizing the 1st word in my sentences.
I cannot wait to trade this version out for the next one ugh 😫

I LOVE THE CAMERA
on October 3, 2026
Posted by: Naturelover33
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Recently, I upgraded my phone and I chose the Samsung Galaxy S 26 Ultra. I was NOT disappointed! I love the thin and sleek feel of this phone with the completely flat screen, rounded corners and fun colors. It's such an aesthetically pleasing device! But the inside is just as good... If you love to take crisp, clear, photos from your phone, this device has your back in that department! I'm amazed at the quality of the photo even after you zoom in a lot! The colors are vibrant and the picture is so clean!!
I was slightly worried about transferring info from my old phone but Samsung and my new device made it a BREEZE! And it's like I'm using my older device just far better and newer!!
This a great device for your next smartphone upgrade!!
