Video stabilization on the Galaxy S26 Ultra received an unworldly upgrade because Samsung\u2019s latest flagship\u2019s Horizon Lock was demonstrated by popular YouTuber MKBHD of minimizing camera shake<\/a>\u00a0regardless of how the device was being moved around. Of course, some content creators aren\u2019t satisfied with these trivial tests and want to move into overdrive mode. A different YouTuber taped a Galaxy S26 Ultra to a drill machine, which spun several revolutions per minute to see the Horizon Lock\u2019s limitations, and we were genuinely surprised by the results.<\/p>\n

A lengthy video posted by the channel Tecnonauta tests various aspects of the Galaxy S26 Ultra, but perhaps the most interesting one was when Horizon Lock was taken to its limits. Under normal circumstances, any user’s daily driving of Samsung\u2019s latest and greatest flagship will probably subject it to a few shakes. The only time we can see video stabilization getting tested on this device is if you\u2019re sitting on a roller coaster.<\/p>\n

With the extreme Horizon Lock test, the drill machine goes through several revolutions per minute, so you can expect the Galaxy S26 Ultra to produce some shaky footage, but it\u2019s nowhere near as bad as what the competition has done if those devices went through the same gauntlet. For a company that receives flak over being conservative with its flagship releases, Samsung has truly done wonders with Horizon Lock.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Even the Galaxy S26 Ultra\u2019s camera specifications are inferior to rivals like the Vivo X300 Ultra<\/a>, but as you can tell from the video above, those details are relevant on paper. The extreme Horizon Lock test happens right at the end of the clip from 33:00 onwards, and if you\u2019re thoroughly impressed with the flagship\u2019s capabilities, you can pre-order one from Amazon immediately.<\/p>\n

The online retailer is running a stellar promotion where you can get double the storage at no extra charge, and you can also get a $200 gift card<\/a>\u00a0for your troubles. Alternatively, you can get 15 percent off Samsung\u2019s Galaxy Buds4 Pro, which are retailing for $249.99, but if you pre-order these separately<\/a>, Amazon will reward you with a $30 gift card.<\/p>\n
