I CHOSE THE S26 ULTRA
on September 28, 2026
Posted by: CHRONICHIT
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I CHOSE the S26 Ultra. Because if u want literally a computer in your back pocket it's 5he only way to go. Literally does everything. Would be a fool to choose anything else in my opinion it's the best phone on the market.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the ultra because love the big display, and the colors and clarity are amazing, coming from a pixel, and trust me, worth the change at all. The privacy feature is fenomenal.

I chose the S26 Ultra for real workdays
on September 28, 2026
Posted by: Mudbug70
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Galaxy S26 Ultra because I needed a phone that survives a real workday, not a showroom demo. I work maintenance, then shoot clips outside, wrench on gear, and track workouts. It keeps up without me babysitting it.
The screen sold me. Texas sun wrecks most displays. This one stays readable outside, and the privacy display works. People beside me see a dark panel. I still see maps, texts, and the camera. That matters in a hallway or lot.
Performance is boring in the best way. Apps open. Multitasking does not stutter. I jump between camera, notes, health tracking, and video with no drama. Heat stays reasonable when I record outside or run navigation.
Battery lasts a full shift plus evening use. I am not hunting a charger at lunch unless I filmed all morning. A short charge helps. Daylight camera is strong. Dusk is better than expected. Zoom works for signs, parts, and distant details. Handheld video is stable enough for quick clips.
S Pen is the sleeper feature. Notes and markup beat typing with dirty hands. Samsung Health tracks weight, sleep, and activity. Pairing with the Galaxy Watch Ultra is clean.
Software is packed. Circle to Search and writing tools save time. The built-in voice assistant is the part I skip. I set what I want and leave the rest. Build feels solid. Grip is better. Speakers are loud enough in a truck or shop.
I chose this device because the unglamorous stuff works: screen, battery, camera, pen, and health tracking. That is what I needed.

Something to make better or just lose all together
on September 28, 2026
Posted by: 2FreakinTall
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Samsung S26 Ultra. Mainly for the oversized screen. Then found out how amazing the camera is.
I'm a truck driver and I'm constantly using this as my GPS device, while streaming music on my long hauls. Also using it for my electronic log book. On average running 4 to 5 apps at once, all day long and never have any issues.
I only rated it at 4 stars, because I've had problems with the stylus... Using a case to protect my phone, I find it very difficult to get the stylus out. Taking the protective case off, I find the stylus pops out too easily. I purchased this phone July 4th and I have already lost the stylus (lol). Besides all of that. I haven't found very many reasons to even use a stylus.
Just a suggestion, but maybe they should make it a digital lock and release. It wouldn't be difficult to remove the stylus with the stronger spring and a digital release and they're definitely wouldn't be any chance of losing it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose to upgrade my phone from the previous model. I have enjoyed the privacy screen feature in order to keep privacy in public settings. The Ai use in photos has been a fun way inspire my creative side.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best phone I've ever had! Camera is great and so are the AI features! I used to have a Samsung A54 and the S26 Ultra is by far a better phone! The pen is very easy to use! This is a very fast phone! I am beyond happy with the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra!!!
