Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra Review: Major upgrade makes it ‘best of the best’

It’s just one of the reasons that makes the top-tier model the “pinnacle of the S25 series”, according to Nathan Rigger, Head of Product Mobile eXperience, Samsung Electronics Australia.

“We’ve made significant upgrades, including to our camera which now features a 50MP ultra wide lense. That means you’re able to capture really crisp ultra wide photos but also really detailed macro photos so you can shoot something up to 2cm away and get stunning photos off the back of that,” Nathan told news.com.au checkout. 

The self-confessed “time poor” Head of Product Mobile eXperience also couldn’t help but list a couple of new features that transformed his daily routine. 

“There’s a feature called AI Select, which will analyse what you’re doing on the screen and give you some actions that you can quickly click to make your life seamless and easy,” he said.

“If there’s an upcoming concert, I can take a photo and AI select will analyse the poster, put it in my calendar, give me directions to the location, and allow me to save that into my gallery or search for information as well. 

“I’m horrible at taking photos and videos. And all of these features like Audio Eraser and Generative Edit will help to edit all these images and videos to make the video capturing experience better.”
