The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra solidifies its position as a leader in the premium Android smartphone market with subtle yet impactful design refinements and cutting-edge features.

Samsung is back with another S series flagship device, and while the changes may not completely reinvent the wheel, the new Galaxy S26 Ultra proves exactly why Samsung continues to completely dominate the premium Android smartphone market.

At first glance, the design changes may seem subtle, but after spending some time with the device, the refinements become noticeable. Samsung has slightly slimmed down the body, flattened the edges a little more, and rounded off the corners to improve comfort during everyday use. The result is a phone that feels easier to hold despite still being a massive device.

Samsung’s build quality remains among the best in the industry, with the S26 Ultra feeling solid, polished, and unmistakably flagship from the moment you pick it up.

The front of the phone is dominated by a stunning 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED display with QHD+ resolution and a buttery smooth 120Hz refresh rate. Unsurprisingly, this is one of the best smartphone displays you can buy right now.
