Popular YouTuber JerryRigEverything tore down the new Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra, performing one of the most fun and anticipated tests of the new, premium phone.
JerryRigEverything took an extended look at the guts of the new phone and found that Samsung neglected to make a big deal of an upgraded camera system. Still, as most tech products go these days, the Galaxy S26 Ultra seems to be an incremental upgrade over previous models.
JerryRigEverything called it a “decent upgrade over last year, but I still wouldn’t rush out to buy a new one if you have a phone that was made in the last two or three years.”
In his review of the phone, Mashable Tech Editor Timothy Beck Werth wrote that the S26 Ultra was a very good smartphone, mostly aimed at power users.
He wrote: “Still, for dedicated Android users — or anyone who loves big phones and hates Liquid Glass — the S26 Ultra is worth the investment. If you’re a professional creator, an AI superuser, or a developer who can make the most of the snappy Qualcomm processor, then I think you’ll be very happy.”
