Upgrade with no contract.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It has issues with disconnecting from wifi without warning. Switching WiFi off and on in setting reconnects it. Battery can last a few days and it's used constantly. Not really had chance to use camera yet. Displays much bigger than my S9 and last phone the S23.

Decent Flagship
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My first Ultra phone, usually get the FE versions and I have to say that I'm not sure it's worth the extra expense. The plus points, it's fast, camera is excellent and it's very durable. Disappointed in battery life although it does charge fast. The display doesn't pop like I thought it would when put next to an iPhone..no does it stand out any different from lower spec Samsung phones...every thing is becoming very generic in appearance. Overall I'll happy with the phone, and will be keeping a good few years.
Synopsis, East Midlands
Tremendous phone.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Battery life perfect. Gets to the end of a day of heavy use with 20% left consistently. Camera is crispy! Display is bright and vivid. No issues with durability at all, and it's remained as lightning fast as it was when I took it out of the box!

Fantastic Product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The phone is top-notch. I have always been a Samsung lover in fact I am more inclined to buy Samsung products. I cannot fault anything about the phone, the camera is superb. I am particularly enjoying the AI functionality now. I also like the design - very ergonomic. My experience of the phone's performance is impeccable.

I do not regret upgrading!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this from EE, upgraded from my S21 ultra and wow.. what an upgrade! The camera was the first major improvment i noticed and the family love to take pictures with it. The upgraded performance was great for gaming sessions and the battery laster far longer!
