Setting up the Brief is pretty easy, with the simplest method being just to add it to the phone's home screen. All you need to do is press and hold the screen, then select the Widgets icon at the bottom of the screen, and tapping on the Now Brief icon.

Probably the biggest hardware enhancement Samsung added to the Galaxy S25 Ultra is the latest and greatest in Snapdragon processing, the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chipset. After a little bit of time using the phone, I can confirm everything feels very speedy and responsive.

Samsung's Galaxy S25 phones are all about AI. But the Ultra also gets a larger screen and a slightly refreshed look with smooth corners.
