Definitely worth an upgrade
I recently upgraded from the Samsung 25+ to the 26 ultra.. definitely worth the money. I like the fact it has a privacy screen. Battery life seems to last longer even when usage is high. Camera is brighter and clear. Performance wise I love everything about it.

Great phone
I am extremely happy with phone. However, I didn't like the fact that the S-pen does not work with the camera. I cannot use the S-pen to snap a picture from a distance.

Loving my new phone
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Loving my new phone and still learning what it can do for me. Great for music, easy note-taking and reading books. Probably going to swap out my case as I bought the magsafe one and the pen doesn't work with that but am considering a second case with a lanyard.

Excellenct phone
Excellent phone – definitely worth the price I bought the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra 5G and I’m really happy with it. The phone is incredibly fast, everything runs smoothly without any lag, and the build quality feels premium. The display is stunning – the colours are vibrant and the image is very sharp, which makes it perfect for watching videos and everyday use. The camera takes amazing photos, even in low light conditions. The battery life is great and easily lasts a full day of heavy use. Another big plus is the 512 GB storage – I don’t have to worry about running out of space anymore. The phone looks very sleek and modern, and the included S Pen is a fantastic bonus. Highly recommended – one of the best phones I’ve ever had!

No Gimmick, Straight forward awesome device.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] From Galaxy S23 ultra, very much improvement. Build quality and technical improvements are very significant. Privacy screen is not a gimmick, it's useful.

Pleased with upgrade from s23 ultra
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this on preorder, and am very pleased with it. I changed up from an S23 Ultra, and am appreciating some of the new features, including the privacy option, and enhanced performance. Unfortunately in improving the camera, the s26 ultra camera housing protrudes further than the body than the s23, and so even with a case it rocks when typing on a table. As I mostly type when holding, this hasn't been a big problem for me. Certainly the best phone I have owned.
