● 1 TB (with 16 GB of memory): If you're going to be dealing with a lot of data, consider upgrading all the way to 1 TB. This is the perfect storage option for power users who need a lot of space for large files and high-performance tasks, particularly for work or gaming.

● If you’re still unsure of which option is best for you, check the storage capacity on your current phone (usually found in the settings) to get an idea of your typical usage. You can see how much space is being taken up and even get a breakdown of the different categories, like photos, videos, apps, music, documents and more. This will give you a good idea of how much storage you will need on your new device.

After five loyal years with my trusty Galaxy S21 Ultra, I finally made the leap to the Galaxy S26 Ultra in Cobalt Violet, and I am absolutely blown away by the evolution in just a few generations. Samsung hasn't just tweaked the formula; they've completely refined it. My absolute favorite standout feature has to be the innovative privacy display. The ability to manually activate it based on the specific apps I'm using is a total game-changer for reading sensitive information in public spaces. Even better, it completely eliminates the need to spend money on those cheap, aftermarket privacy screen protectors that inevitably ruin the screen's natural clarity and brightness. It is built-in genius that works exactly when I need it to. As someone with a demanding, on-the-go schedule, the super-fast charging is a literal lifesaver. A quick top-up gives me a massive boost in battery life in mere minutes, completely wiping out any battery anxiety during long days. Finally, the display and overall performance are nothing short of breathtaking. The screen is vibrant, impossibly bright even in direct sunlight, and buttery smooth. Coupled with the absolute powerhouse processor under the hood, jumping between heavy apps and multitasking is completely effortless. If you are holding onto an older device like the S21 series and wondering if it's time to upgrade, don't hesitate. The S26 Ultra is a flawless matsterpiece that delivers on every single front. Highly recommended!

[Employee of samsung-en_nz] I am one of the lucky ones to have my hands on the S26 Ultra. I took it to the lantern festival and took a lot of epic photos of the lights and fireworks. what really surprised me was I found out i took the exact same photo with my daughter who is on A33 - both photos are great but then i realized hers only got the fireworks in terms of brightness (we both just point and shoot) but mine, the S26 Ultra actually captured all the color variations that the human eye saw. The hint of purple, red and orange, the sparks, smoke - those are all there whereas my daughter's photo was just a bright yellowish sparkle.

I recently upgraded to a S26 Ultra from a Samsung Flip 5. Although I like my Flip 5, these old eyes are not getting younger, so the larger screen is VERY welcomed! The color and clarity of the screen is absolutely stunning. I already had to use the new privacy screen feature to keep a nosey seat mate on a recent flight from seeing my texts, as well as blocking out every password I needed to type in to my banking apps. Also, compared to my Flip 5, charging is lightening quick! I can get this phone from 40% to 80+ in literally minutes!!! This makes uSing the phone during travel a no worry situation, since I can gain large percentage of power during a short layover. Another feature I am loving is the new camera. Not only do I have a wider lense, but the zoom is amazing at up to 100 times zoom. AI features allow me to make shots of my friends, hilarious. I can take any other picture and correct issues or even remove people from the shot. The additional AI features allow me to add quick appointments from text messages as well as prepare for sleep by getting my evening brief, that also includes a rundown of the days headlines. Overall, this phone blows me away, and I'm very glad I made the update!

I am absolutely thrilled with my new device! After taking the time to carefully review the detailed specs and performance features, I chose the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra to replace my previous phone. Having owned the Galaxy S24 Ultra, I already had incredibly high standards for speed, battery life, and display quality. However, seeing how much Samsung advanced the technology in this latest generation made it clear that this model was going to hands down be the best all-around smartphone on the market. It has completely exceeded my expectations, delivering a seamless, high-performance experience that makes the upgrade worth every single penny!

Honestly, it took me a lot of convincing to upgrade because I have been using S10e & couldn't find a better phone. THAT shows how much I love Samsung. It was finally time to upgrade after my bank app no longer supported my OS. When I finally got this phone, I got so overwhelmed with it's features. It is absolutely beautiful to hold even though I have little hands. The camera blew my mind of how crisp the pictures are. Everything else is just so fast, loads right away without any lag. My teen son sneaks away with the phone to show his friends in the neighborhood to show how cool his mom is to get a long overdue upgrade.

The display is vibrant and sharp, and the built-in Privacy Display feature is genuinely useful for keeping sensitive notifications hidden in public spaces. Everyday speed and multitasking are completely fluid, easily handling heavy productivity apps and high-end gaming without stuttering. The camera system delivers crisp details and reliable low-light performance across all focal lengths, especially with the telephoto zoom. Battery life comfortably lasts a full day of heavy use, and the faster charging is a noticeable improvement. Having the integrated stylus remains a huge plus for taking quick notes. Highly recommended for power users. I'm glad that I chose to upgrade to s26 ultra

Performance is entirely flawless thanks to the custom Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor and 12GB of RAM. Intensive multitasking, continuous streaming, and extreme mobile gaming are handled with ease. The redesigned, 21% larger vapor chamber keeps things running perfectly cool under heavy workloads. Even better is the incredible battery efficiency. The optimized 5,000 mAh battery easily powers through a full day and a half. It also handles the newly upgraded 60W ultra-fast wired charging, which juices the battery to over 80% in just 30 minutes.

I’ve been using the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra as my daily driver, and it continues to impress me on every level. The display is bright, crisp, and extremely smooth, making media consumption and gaming an absolute blast. The camera system is where this phone truly shines. Photos come out sharp with incredible detail, and the optical zoom features allow you to capture stunning photos from a distance without losing quality. Night shots, sunsets, and detailed close-ups look exceptionally clear. Battery life gets me through a full day of heavy use without any stress, and the charging speeds are fast when you need a quick top-up. The overall build quality feels premium and durable in hand, and the operating system is fast and responsive.

The Galaxy S26 Ultra packs a massive battery that easily lasts all day without a single charge. Thanks to its incredibly fast charging speed, a quick boost in the morning is all I need to power through the entire day. The camera performance is a massive leap forward compared to my previous phone, and the 100x zoom is simply fantastic. One standout feature is the new Privacy Display. Being able to customize it for individual apps—like banking or message notifications—is an absolute game-changer for privacy. In terms of performance, it handles every app and game with extreme smoothness and power. What impressed me the most is that I barely felt any heat even during heavy use, which is a huge plus in my book. Truly the perfect smartphone.

I chose the S26 Ultra for my phone of choice for a few reasons. The main reason being the quality of the phone. The phone is very well designed and built. It is made for everyone from younger kids that are using their parents phone to the tech savy person that knows how to code. I even believe that a elder that hasn't used a smartphone would be able to figure it out. The S26 Ultra is very easy to use. The camera is amazing, the stylus allows ease of use when editing or using the Dex feature. Overall I would rate the phone a twelve out of ten.

I was considering switching to the Google Pixel series but after consideration I chose to stay with Samsung. This was a chose I did not regret. I upgraded from S23 Ultra. Dramatic increase in battery performance. I was nervous because it used the same battery size as the S23 Ultra but the optimization my battery lasts much longer. When I dont use GPS it typically can lasts over 48 hours with heavy use. The privacy filter is actually quite impressive and quite useful when you have to work in public. Overall I chose this device over Google Pixel.

It feels like a refined powerhouse, finally ditching the sharp corners for a lighter, rounded design that is much easier to hold. It's standout Privacy Display is a game-changer for commuters like me allowing to hide sensitive on-screen info from prying eyes at the tap of a button. Performance is flawless thanks to the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, though the jump to 60W charging still feels a bit behind some competitors. The camera remains king of zoom, now boosted by an f/1.4 aperture that makes night shots look incredibly natural and bright. It’s the ultimate "no-compromise" phone for 2026, especially if you value ergonomics and privacy as much as raw power.

I preordered this phone when the window was open and I must say I have been glued to every feature there is in it. The camera is fire(you know what I mean. The displays are incredible: clean, smart, swift and the phone colors are dope. Battery level is crazy. I don't use 80% in a day despite being out for more then 10 hours in a day - it'sgoing to last long as the day goes by. I know i do not use devices till they are weak or spoilt, but i am sure this phone has the capacity for anything. It is reliabe and durable. The overall performance of this phone is 10000%. It's amazing to be honest. I can definitely go on and on. The phone is sleek and top-notch. 😉

I’ve been using the Samsung Galaxy 26 Ultra and I have to say it’s a very impressive device. The performance is fast and smooth, the display is beautiful and easy on the eyes, and the camera is absolutely excellent sharp, accurate, and delivers great photos even in low light. It’s definitely one of the standout features of the phone. The only downside for me is the camera design it sticks out quite a bit, so when the phone is placed on its back it tends to wobble slightly. It’s not a dealbreaker, but it’s something you do notice. Overall, it’s a fantastic phone with a great user experience, and I’m really happy with it

I’ve been using the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra for a little while now, and overall it’s one of the most complete smartphones I’ve owned. The standout feature is definitely the camera. Photos are incredibly sharp in daylight, with great color accuracy and dynamic range. Low-light performance is also noticeably improved — night shots come out brighter and cleaner without looking over-processed. The zoom is another highlight; being able to get clear shots at longer distances is genuinely useful, not just a gimmick. The display is stunning as expected from Samsung — bright, smooth, and easy to see even outdoors. Watching videos or just scrolling feels premium. Performance is also top-tier; everything runs fast and smoothly, from everyday apps to gaming, with no noticeable lag.

Everything on this phone is just as good as the previous models. Sturdy Hardy phone good shape works well, great camera, no compatibility issues runs everything. The only thing that could change is the pixel Clarity on the screen needs to be increased, and the battery life somehow is slightly worse than my s22 which if you're doing the math on that means it's doing about the same or worse than my four-year-old phone. I'm not sure why that is. This is still definitely a buyer if you need a phone though.

I chose to upgrade earlier this year. I don't normally upgrade until I'm a couple of years behind, but I choose to upgrade one cycle early for all the features of the new phone a week as expanded battery life and the phenomenal AI. This phone meets almost all of my expectations. I do miss the old days of adding your own SD card for additional storage, but the memory on this phone is pretty good and is processor is plenty fat and allie to handle everything i can throw at it. You did a great job Samsung.

That's correct. I chose all three!!! It started with the S26 Ultra. I upgraded from three S23 Ultra. I like all the extra features that came on the S26U. Bigger battery, better cameras, and surprisingly the flatter screen. I thought I would miss the curved edges. NOPE! Then I've been on the fence about getting the Buds. With all of the options out there, I just said why not stay in the family. Noise canceling is great and the music clarity is AWESOME. Having an EQ makes them even better. Then the Watch Ultra 2 came out. So, I chose too upgrade my watch while I was at it. I haven't scratched the surface of what this watch can do. But what I have explored, I love. I'm not one that has to have the next flashy thing. So unfortunately for Samsung, I'll be sporting this lineup for a while!! LOL.

I chose to upgrade my S23+ for the S26 Ultra. I really do appreciate having the privacy screen feature. The display on this phone is incredible, and the camera is outstanding. The battery performance is the best of any phone that I have owned. Samsung has finally been able to get the size of the ultra model just right. I use my phone all the time for work, personal pleasure, streaming videos, and playing games while waiting. In conclusion, I would recommend this to everyone.

I have been waiting for this model, S26 Ultra, with specific specs for a number of years. I chose the model with 1T memory because it was the only model which included 16 GB of Ram. I wanted the fastest most powerful Samsung Galaxy model available. I have always owned many different Samsung phones over the years. I have finally found and purchased the best one so far. My interests are mostly maximizing the phone specs and efficiencies. Updates for all aspects of the phone are checked daily.
This phone is phenomenal. I'm upgrading from the S24 Ultra and I thought that there wouldn't be a noticeable difference but my-oh-my... this phone has surpassed my expectations in every single way. The battery is so much longer (even though it's the same size as in the S24 Ultra), the camera is just so smooth and crisp, the display is noticeable brighter and sharper (don't even get me started on that Privacy Display feature), and last but not least the Performance. Every single app of mine loads noticeably quicker than my previous phone. It honestly feels like this phone is running on a Ferrari engine!! Totally in-LOVVEE with my new phone.

When I buy a phone, I keep it. Before I chose this phone, I checked the options online and got exactly what I wanted. I love a phone with the S Pen feature. While I wasn't looking for upgraded camera features, I can't wait to capture the birds and butterfly in my backyard. I've found the transition to the new phone pretty seamless which is a bonus for me. I'm still exploring all the features available and it's fun. I am excited to find new ways to make my daily routine more efficient.
I've owned almost every Galaxy S series phone over the years, so I've seen how they've evolved. Most recently, I went from the Galaxy S22 Ultra to the S24 Ultra, then tried the Galaxy Fold 7. While the Fold wasn't really for me, moving back to the Galaxy S26 Ultra has reminded me why I enjoy the Galaxy S series so much. The S26 Ultra feels like a true premium flagship. The display is stunning, performance is incredibly smooth, the battery life is excellent, and it has everything I need for both work and everyday life. Samsung has done an outstanding job with this phone, and I can confidently recommend it to anyone considering an upgrade.

I have been a Samsung user my whole life and as many good features they have integrated into phones the Privacy Display has been by far the best one in my opinion. I chose the Samsung S26 Ultra because of it, having the option to be out in public without worrying about others looking at your screen is such a relief. Also with it being an option of just your notification that are blacked out is an amazing feature for when out with friends and not wanting to draw attention from them.

Received on Tuesday, and I absolutely love it. The look of this phone is really nice and the colour. The display is brilliant, battery life is just as good as previous models if not better. The ultra zoom on this phone is absolutely brilliant. Unlike previous models, it clears once the photo is taken and the quality is great and great overall. Although its the same MPs as my previous s24ultra, its more crisp some how. It has never crashed or stuttered once. Good instructions on how the use the phones features. Smooth all round. However, I will add the pen doesn't feel great. It feels like it could easily break, but it doesn't effect the use. Just be abit weary when you do.

I chose the Galaxy S26 Ultra because I wanted a phone that could handle everything I use on a daily basis. I use it for work, watching movies and videos, gaming, taking photos, staying connected with family and friends, and getting things done throughout the day. I often multitask and use several apps at the same time, and the phone handles everything smoothly without slowing down. The large, bright display makes it especially convenient for working from my phone and switching between different tasks. The camera quality is also one of my favorite features, especially for taking photos and videos of everyday moments. I appreciate the battery life as well, since I use my phone throughout the day for both work and personal tasks. Overall, I’m very happy with my Galaxy S26 Ultra and how well it handles everything I need in one device.

Its been nearly 4 days i have had this phone, and its the best...upgraded from the pixel 6a (also had the s9+), this phone is leagues better than ay phone i have till now used. The cameras are great, the privacy display feature is an absolute fav feature and to me it is a game changer. Battery lasts me easy for atleast 2 days for my usage (taking photos, social media, spotify, and video calls). And the 1440p resolution screen, crisp sharp and bright love it. Got the 512gb for the price of 256gb and couldnt be happier. Over the User jnterface has been smooth (way better than what i used on s9+ matter of fact better and smoother than my pixel surprisingly). No regrets what so ever.

I have been a fan of Samsung electronics for over a decade now. I'm not the type of person who needs a new phone every year, so I chose to wait for the release of the Galaxy S26 Ultra before upgrading from my S21 Ultra. I love how simple the switch from one device to another is. I used to dread having to tweak all the settings to what I prefer and I never have to do that when switching to a new Samsung device. I mostly use my phone for casual games and videos but I have recently started using Bixby AI and I really like it. Its been great for helping me stay on task with reminders and being able to control some apps hands free is amazing. Its so convenient to just say, "Hey Bixby, play BTS" when my hands are busy. This device is, by far, my favorite. I've exclusively had Samsung phones for over 15 years and I dont see that changing any time soon.

I choose the Samsung Galaxy s26 ultra and took it with me on trips to Spain, Croatia, and Banff, Canada and the camera is amazing and allowed me to take stunning pictures that rivaled my mirrorless camera, in addition to all the other great features. I have vision disability and the large screen and brightness have been critical for that as well, and I would love to try he new fold series for that reason. Cheers

This phone has changed my life. Fast, responsive and powerful. The S26 plus with 512gb has revolutionised my entire existence and being I feel like I can handle all of life's challenges with this device. Its camera quality is crystal clear allowing for me to zoom in and out seamlessly. I would 100% reccomend samsung as somebody who has used this line of smartphones for the past 6 years. The S26 line surpasses any other competitors in this current market for how functional and multifaceted it is. An outstanding product that I couldn't reccomend any further. I'll attach a photo and a video of me taking a picture of my jacket using this camera I also used the smooth zoom feature

I chose the Galaxy S26 Ultra as an upgrade from my Galaxy Note20, and it has been a major step forward. I've been a loyal Samsung customer for over 25 years, so I've watched these devices evolve through many generations. The S26 Ultra continues what I've always appreciated about Samsung while bringing the performance, display, cameras, and overall experience to another level. I use my phone heavily throughout the day for work, calls, email, photos, navigation, streaming, research, and multitasking, and it handles everything smoothly. Coming from the Note series, I'm especially glad Samsung has kept the S Pen as part of the Ultra experience. It remains genuinely useful and is one of the features that has kept me with Samsung. After more than 25 years with Samsung products, I had high expectations for this upgrade. The S26 Ultra has lived up to them and feels like a worthy successor to my Note20.

Originally I was looking for the s25 or s26, I have small hands so the ultra's feel extra large. But I am so glad I got the S26 Ultra, Im constantly using the AI, creating cute messages for my family, and you can create almost anything as long as it's family friendly. Connecting to my other Samsung devices was really easy, even switching my account from my S22 to the S26 Ultra was pretty easy.

I chose it was time to upgrade after having my 22 ultra for so long. I love the speed as well as the privacy screen but I do not like the camera feature. I dont like the fact the pen is no longer used as a selfie stick which I loved on my 22 ultra. I have also notice an error with the text messaging that sometimes it doesn't run the RCS text other then that everything else is good.

The display is outstanding, and I really like the privacy screen, which makes it more comfortable to use in public.

Despite being a heavy user, the phone stays cool throughout the day and doesn't overheat, which is impressive. Overall, the durability and performance have been excellent for my daily needs.

Upgraded from the S21 Ultra to the S26 Ultra and love the changes made starting with the audio having louder and clear quality without me raising the volume over 20%. The return of the curved frame is more comfortable than the previous Ultras. The upgraded storage is nice to have considering working in media and needing a ton of storage for work.

I received my Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra last week, and it’s honestly exceeded my expectations. The display is absolutely stunning—bright, smooth, and perfect for streaming and browsing.

Battery life easily lasts me 1.5 day with regular use. The design feels premium and solid in hand. I’ve also started using the S Pen more than I expected—it’s super handy.

Switched to S26 Ultra from Pxel 7 and have been lovinig it so far. Battery life is incredible and the camera shots are great. However, there are some downsides that I don't see much about. The S pen is basically useless without bluetooth integration. It is only useful if you are drawing or taking handwritten notes. The privacy feature at its maximum setting also causes a white/grey scale that covers the entire screen and makes the user experience much worse. All things considered, still a really solid phone with impressive benchmarks and performance. Customisation options with OneUI is amongst the best I've used as a life-long android user.

The Galaxy S26 Ultra is an absolute powerhouse. It’s got a stunning 200MP camera system, a brilliant 6.9-inch AMOLED display, and a super-fast Snapdragon chip. Galaxy AI really stands out—it integrates smart features like real-time language translation, auto-editing in photos, and even personalized productivity suggestions. For streaming, it’s fantastic—HDR10+ support makes movies and sports look incredible, and the high refresh rate is perfect for gaming. Whether you’re working on the go or just relaxing, it handles everything with ease—so it’s a top-tier all-rounder. So happy I was able to upgrade from s24 ultra and get 800 trade in for it.

I have been a fan of Samsung for many years. I always use the trade in program and trade for the latest phone. I love the features that Samsung Galaxy has, from taking great pictures of my family, even features that I didn't think I needed until I started to use them, such as the Privacy screen. I work with my phone, so no need to buy a privacy screen protector to keep clients identity private, I tried it and love it! I mean honestly, it's my second day and cannot way to try everything my new Galaxy has to offer. I have been using Galaxy AI writing assist to takes notes and summarize, which makes it so much easier as far as my job, lifesaver.

I love the screen on the new Galaxy S26 Ultra! It is clear with vibrant colors. The privacy feature has been a great addition when entering passwords, sensitive information, and viewing banking information. Love the thought of using it on flights and the person next to me cannot see what I'm watching/doing. The new AI software has been a great addition to suggesting new settings to only allow necessary notifications instead of every alert from all apps. Using AI to search for products from a screenshot and editing photos have always been great and continue to be. Overall, I am very happy with the S26 Ultra as an upgrade from the S24 Ultra.

The new curve on the corners of the phone makes the phone easier and more comfortable in my hands. The battery lady all day with my heavy online gaming.

The S26 Ultra is nice. The privacy display is great. It is lighter then my S24 Ultra and the camera is great. If any of those features are what you are looking for then get it. My one complaint is that they took the blue tooth capability out of the S-Pen so I can not use my S pen as a camera remote anymore. Because the cameras are so good and the screen so big, my phone tends to get volunteered for group pictures and the S Pen having that function was the best thing ever. Had I known the S26 did not have that function with its S pen, I would not have purchased this phone and stuck with maybe the S25 or wait to see if they brought it back.

I chose this device because I have used i think just about every galaxy device that's ever been released. I decided after my 25 ultra I would try out the pixel 10 pro XL and I cannot recommend that device due to the chip being too slow. My s26 ultra however breezes through every task I do without even a hiccup. This phone truly is a beast. Camera one of the best I have ever used, gaming performance is unreal and battery extremely long lasting. The privacy display is so good and works very well. I have my bank apps and wireless payment apps blocked with the screen. Truly an amazing phone and I would recommend it to anyone over alot of devices.

I also use it to send and receive emails, make sure I am taking my medication correctly, stream my many streaming services, listen to music constantly, keep in touch with friends and family, video call my business partners, and so I know what my daily tasks are on any given day. I wouldn't know what to do if it wasn't in my hand. I think I chose the perfect model for me!

the battery lasts longer that I expected. The privacy display is very helpful in my everyday financial transactions. The camera shots either for photo or video is great, the only disadvantage is the protruding camera at the back which affect the balance of the phone. The overall performance of the phone is highly rated due to its easy access of all apps, shortcut features, can smoothly control all my household Samsung products through smart things apps. The only question is the durability of the phone as it was made of aluminum rather than titanium. Overall, the Samsung S26 Ultra is much better from my previous one, which is Samsung S23 Ultra.

Hi Romy, reading "I love Samsung" definitely put a smile on our faces! Thanks for continuing your Galaxy journey with us, and we're so happy your Galaxy S26 Ultra has been a worthy upgrade from your Galaxy S23 Ultra.
I bought the s26 ultra and this is my experience of the unit so far, The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is a top-tier flagship smartphone in 2026, offering an excellent 200MP camera with outstanding zoom and low-light performance, very fast and powerful performance for gaming and multitasking, and a bright, high-quality display—though its new privacy feature may cause slight eye strain for some users. It delivers solid battery life lasting around 1–2 days and features a premium, durable build, but overall improvements are incremental rather than groundbreaking, making it ideal for those upgrading from older models rather than recent Ultra devices.
Excellent, current best in the market. Battery is very, very reliable, never let me down, fast charging is great. camera is great, software experience is the best, display is a little less bright due private display feature which a very useful feature but still wish it was a little more bright. Performance is super, no issues whatsoever of any type for my experience time. I had in cover from day 1 so no durability issue, I am enjoying the original screen without protection and the phone never heated even though I used it to shoot video for quite a long time, ultra series is really irreplacable, hope to see more of it in he future, Thank you.

I have to mention the Privacy Display first. It is so convenient to use when out in public. There's no need to worry about nosy people being curious about what you're doing on your phone. The camera quality is superior. I'm still not used to constantly pulling out my phone to take pictures because I find the scenery to be beautiful and I know for a fact my phone would do it justice. The battery life is exceptional. Something else to get used to. The battery lasts all day with continuous video playback. I don't have to worry about charging my phone throughout the day. I find myself constantly showing off my S26 Ultra to my family and friends.

I love Galaxy AI. I can make changes and edits just by taking a simple photo. Using AI, I was able to create sample designs for my living room and my lanai, which made it much easier to visualize how everything would look before making any changes. Also love how easy Is the S Pen makes it simple to take notes, stay organized, and keep track of important things throughout the day. Galaxy AI has made helping me create ideas and edit photos faster. Between the S Pen, Galaxy AI, the amazing camera, and the long battery life, my Samsung phone helps me every day for work, family, and entertainment. Thank you, Samsung for make my life easier.

It was finally time for the wife and I to upgrade our phones from the S21 and S22 to the new S26 series! Major upgrade! The camera is amazing, and the addition of Galaxy AI has been very helpful. We take a ton of photos and videos of our little ones, and the quality is awesome! I mostly use my phone to listen to music and watch videos/movies. I use Galaxy AI to help organize my thoughts and manage my schedule.It's also great at helping assist with composing text and emails. The phone feels good in the hand and the build quality is incredible! Highly recommend if you're in the market for an upgrade or just looking for a quality product

This is the best I've ever used in my life. It has a great battery, so I could watch downloaded movies, watch YouTube, or play games all day long, and at the end of the day, the battery still holds a charge. I use the phone for work because it makes my life easier. For example, if I need to write a long message, I use Samsung Galaxy AI to make my messages sound more professional. The best part of the phone is the greatest camera. I use the camera instead of the microscope to zoom in on small objects to study them. When I use my phone in the subway, I always use the privacy screen feature in order not to let other customers see what I am doing.
I have owned Samsung phones for over 10 years. And have always enjoyed them. But this release has been non stop issues with software and the Google RCS messages that has replaced Samsung messages. With all of the newer AI features that if you aren't paying attention will cause various bugs and glitches. I personally believe this model should have went through more testing before they released it. My phone has been replaced once already and it was only 14 days old. I wouldn't recommend this phone to my family or friends at this time. Samsung needs to reevaluate this phone and provide some patch updates to stabilize the over all user experience.

The new Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra with GalaxyAi integrated has been one of the best phones I've ever used! From being able to run my graphic design business to winding down for game night, this Galaxy has it all! Storage was a key factor for me upgrading, as a graphic designer, photos and videos are all what my business runs on so having the capacity and GalaxyAi to help sort out my designs into neat and more frequently used categories for social media, make running my business much faster and easier then ever before. I'm thoroughly impressed by Samsung and their latest innovations in tech and I'm excited to see what Samsung comes up with next!

So far, I am very happy with my Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra. I chose this model mainly for the multiple cameras, and the pictures it takes genuinely compare to actual DSLR quality. The built-in AI is extremely helpful—I can even discuss my classes hands-free while I drive. The screen is incredibly sharp, and they seem to have completely fixed the overheating issue; I can stream full movies or play games for hours, and the phone still manages the heat really well. On top of all that, one of the best features is that the screen doesn't even need a protector. The whole phone is amazingly durable, which is great because I've dropped it multiple times!

I choose Samsung for my phone as well as my tvs and appliances they work seamlessly together and having the pen makes signing documents from anywhere very easy as a self employed person with multiple buisnesses

We’re thrilled to see how much you are enjoying your S25 Ultra, Rajjdeep! It’s great that after deep research, the incredible capabilities of this model blew you away. The sleek design is perfectly complimented by the rich display and the speedy processor, which works in harmony with the battery to give you life all day. The 200 MP main camera lens captures true to life images, which can be edited easily with Galaxy AI. It’s the ideal device for gaming, work, and play - this model really has your back! ^SK at Samsung Support
