    The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is a big, beautiful phone that is much easier to hold thanks to its new rounded edges. The camera is incredible, taking bright and clear photos even when it is dark outside. A cool new privacy feature lets you hide your screen from people sitting next to you with just one tap. It charges faster than older models, so you aren't stuck plugged into a wall for long.

    Best phone I have used in years. It is my daily driver now. Came from an iPhone 17 Pro Max. Love Apple, but they cannot match everything I can do with this phone. If you are on the fense and have lived in the Apple ecosystem for a long time, jump in, the water is warm!

    Excellence is the order of the day. Samsung S26 Ultra was the ultimate upgrade from my Note 20 Ultra (I keep my phones long). And this because of the durability and performance of the S Series.

    Upgraded from an S23 Ultra for the trade-in deal. Performance is noticeably faster, but while the camera is slightly better overall, I miss the S23 Ultra’s 10x zoom.

    I recently traded in my old Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra for the new S26 Ultra, and I am absolutely amazed by the difference. I was really surprised by how much better this phone is. I love the premium materials it's made from, and the build quality feels top-notch. I’m really excited to see how it performs in the long run.

    I upgraded from a Galaxy 21 ultra and can say that the Galaxy 26 ultra is definitely a great next phone. Everything on the 26 runs quicker and the new privacy screen feature is awesome. If you're looking to upgrade don't pass on the S26 ultra.
