Finally made the switch to Samsung and I love it!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a life long user of a different platform I have just made the jump to the S26 Ultra. My first time with an android device and it is amazing. I'm super happy with it already, i thought there would be a longer learning period, but it is fantastic. What i love about it is any issue that i have with it, any little thing that i dont like about the pre-sets can all really easily be changed, there is so much flexibility, so much you can do with it, plus its beautiful, the screen is crystal clear, battery lasts for ever. I love it. Make the switch. You wont regret it.

Nice colour
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I prefer the sky blue color over last year's silver blue edition. I'm not too interested in the AI functions, but the privacy display is an excellent feature. I like the design, the shape and the fact that the phone is not so bulky.

Samsung ultra 26 I think its a good upgrade
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Privacy Display a hardware-level feature that narrows viewing angles to prevent prying eyes from seeing your screen content seems to work well So many features on display can be difficult to use

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra (512GB)
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After spending some time with the new Galaxy S26 Ultra, it is clear that Samsung has focused on meaningful hardware innovation this year. While it retains the iconic Ultra silhouette, the refinements under the hood and on the glass make it a powerhouse for both productivity and privacy. Privacy Without Compromise The standout feature is undoubtedly the new Privacy Display. Unlike those thick, third-party screen protectors that dull your screen 24/7, this is integrated directly into the hardware. It allows the screen to stay crisp and vibrant when viewed head-on, but effectively shields your content from "shoulder surfers" at an angle. It is particularly impressive how you can set it to activate automatically for banking apps or password entries—a true game-changer for using your phone in public. Speed and Performance The operating system—powered by the latest Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy—is remarkably fluid. Whether you are jumping between heavy multitasking or using the new AI-driven "Now Nudge" features, there is zero lag. The 120Hz refresh rate combined with this improved processing power makes the UI feel more responsive than any previous generation. Professional-Grade Photography The camera remains the "King of Zoom," but the real story this year is the f/1.4 aperture on the main 200MP sensor. It pulls in significantly more light, which has noticeably improved low-light "Nightography" and provides a more natural, creamy background blur for portraits. The 512GB of storage is also a smart choice here, as those high-res 200MP shots and 4K videos can fill up space quickly. Build and Durability The move to the refined Advanced Armor Aluminum frame and Corning Gorilla Armor 2 gives the device a very solid, premium feel. It is slightly thinner than last year (7.9mm), making it more comfortable to hold. While it feels exceptionally durable and has the standard IP68 water resistance, only time will tell how the new frame material holds up against daily wear compared to the previous titanium. Final Verdict: The S26 Ultra is a sophisticated tool that balances high-end performance with innovative security. It feels less like a minor iteration and more like a refined "pro" device.

Finally a worthy upgrade after long time
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The best and beast of the feature is privacy display. It works as depicted. I can use in metro or tubes without worry. while if someone sees it over your head then they may still see some screen albit very poor visibility. The automatic vido adjustment is fantastic. Great to use with children. The device is much lighter than previous versions and looked more polished. NFC is now much better. I had compliants with previous versions wherein i have to adjust my mobile multiple times to make a payment. Camera is now much better. The AI functionalities are too good such as audio eraser to look at children videos taken outdoor without Wind and background noise, the screenshot are now categorised, edits photos to fill some gaps which were not their earlier, preparing invitation cards, circle to search feature is now much better, where it can look at multiple things in a photo. Battery now charges much faster. They should have given charger with it ideally since they have upgraded charging speed and people dont have their new charger.

S26 Ultra!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Decided to upgrade from my S24 ultra. Much lighter and I like the rounded corners personally. In built privacy is great! Battery, Camera, Display, performance and durability of the phone are great.
