POLL: Are you upgrading to the S26 Ultra?

[kgilbertsen]

Nope. The S25U is not that old (for me) and in like new shape. And, it doesn't seem like there's that much that's changed/improved with the 26.

If Samsung went with orange like Apple. I wouldn't have bothered. I love the new Cobalt Violet.

That's the colour I like best of the ones available.

No. At least not for now.

Keeping my Note 10 (SM-N9700). Perfect size and love the s-pen (mostly for the hover to translate function but also the BT remote camera shutter). Performance is still good enough for me, display is great, and cameras still take good photos.

The only reason I may be forced to upgrade is because the battery life is decreasing and OS is stuck on Android 12. Not a huge problem for now but recently had my first instance of an app not being supported anymore (F1 app). I fear that issue may start to get common.

I upgrade yearly, what's this battery life degrading and OS stuck stuff you're talking about.

I am upgrading to Skyblue 512 S26U but I will be keeping my S24U for back up

 

[Joshua Luther1]

No as my 512gb S25U is good for another couple of years.

I was on the fence but decided to get it, I have to admit it looks and feels pretty sleek, I got the black one and it reminds me of the S25U in jet black, I think it's the nicest one

 

[swarlos]

Yes! Moving from 17 pro to Sky Blue S26U and super excited.

I moved from 17Pro also. It feels so good to be home (android).

Yup! The trade in for my s23+ was decent ($400, which is more than 50% what I paid for it) and I want the wider aperture lens. I've always regretted not getting the 23 ultra, but I didn't like the curved screen, so here we are.

Only disappointment was that they aren't offering the "extra storage on us" deal, so I had to go with 256 instead of 512 - I'll have to be more diligent about deleting photos I guess....

 

[sulla1965]

Yes I did get the s26 ultra. Did I need to upgrade from the s25 ultra? No, but the $900 trade in makes it worthwhile. The s26 Ultra cost me less than $500 even with tax.

 

[SyCoREAPER]

No.
Not a meaningful upgrade from the 23U, 24U or 25U.

 

[nuangel2]

Got my Skyblue Unlocked S26 ultra today.

 

[lateck2]

Got mine last Monday. So, yes I upgraded.

If my... LOL

Shocking, that I ended up upgrading. Yes, I got the Cobalt Violet.

I skipped the S25U but sort of glad I traded my S25+ for it. Not having the Ultra felt wrong and I forcing myself to use the S-Pen more too. Why not right.

Funny how quickly Cosmic Orange got really old quickly. I regret getting the iPhone Pro Max so I gave it to my Mother. She didn't want to spend upgrading and was happy with her 11 so I just surprised her. She wasn't happy. LOL "it's too heavy."

 

[sweetypie31]

I just ordered a black ultra tonight. Hopefully ill have it by Friday. I don't NEED this phone , but oh well. Lol

The Cobalt Violet is such a cool colour. It's my favourite of the colours available for this device.

the positive is that im trading in my s22. Im still paying for my s24 but it can be my back up phone instead of the 22. I have a problem. Lol

Always see the positive. And u still have an S24U. Imo, that was the best since N7... (although N10 was almost perfect too.)
