Samsung Lover for LIFE!
on April 23, 2026
Posted by: Urdiamondeyes27
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ever since I started using a Cell Phone it's either been a Motorola [only about 4 phones] or a Samsung [20+ phones owned]! Not ONLY will I ALWAYS be an Android User but I live for Samsungs! I've NVR had any major issues w/any of them & I know my way around the Samsung features & I can't live w/out one! I went from a Samsung Galaxy A23 to now the A26 & I can't function properly w/out the new Galaxy AI features! It's so easy to use & navigate & it helps me w/my Day to Day!! I'm always looking forward to seeing how Samsung Galaxies improve with each new upgraded device! Please NVR cease the creation of Samsung Galaxy products for I'd be totally lost!!

Hello NEWLEX,
It's great to hear that the camera and flashlight are performing well when you need them most. While the A series doesn't include the full range of Galaxy AI features, it still offers many AI capabilities that can enhance your work by providing a different perspective. I appreciate you sharing how it integrates into your daily routine. Thank you for your feedback and for choosing Samsung!

the phone is good but for the price
on April 20, 2026
Posted by: Pintsize1974
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was expecting a little more from the phone, but at the price it is better than other brands and I absolutely love Samsung platforms. The phones are easy-to-use and easy to swap with the Smart things feature they make transitions a breeze. I am not big on AI but most people find it helpful, I used it to help me with an issue and it went off swimmingly.

Decent performance but flimsy, breaks easily
on April 20, 2026
Posted by: RealEyezxRealizexRealLiez
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Galaxy AI is an enjoyable experience and preforms decent but my complaint is that it breaks easily, it feels too fragile. I don't know exactly how to describe it . I dropped my phone once from a knee height distance and the screen shattered. I rly like my new phone but without a case walking around with it is risky

It's Just OK
on April 15, 2026
Posted by: LisaBean
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this phone as a birthday gift so I don't want to complain about it but it has some glitches. Rarely, if ever, does the keyboard type out what I am pressing or saying. It's filled with errors. I have to go over what I've typed or said multiple times to make all the time consuming corrections. Like I said, it's just "ok". I'll never buy one after this, though. Galaxy AI

Hi LisaBean,
Thank you for sharing your experience with the Galaxy A26 5G. It’s great to hear that the device has been helpful overall. The AI features are designed to enhance everyday tasks, and ongoing updates improve typing accuracy and responsiveness.
The on-screen keyboard is essential for using a Galaxy phone or tablet, as it allows you to reply to messages, search the web, and perform other important tasks. If the keyboard isn’t working or is unresponsive, it’s important to resolve the concern as quickly as possible. Here are some steps you can take to fix the problem:
1. **Use the Default Samsung Keyboard**: We recommend using the Samsung Keyboard that comes pre-installed on your device. Third-party keyboard apps can sometimes cause concerns. If you're having trouble with an alternate keyboard app, you will need to contact its developer.
2. **Change the Default Keyboard**: To switch to the Samsung Keyboard, navigate to Settings, then tap on General Management. From there, select Keyboard List and Default, tap on Default Keyboard, and choose Samsung Keyboard.
3. **Optimize with Device Care**: Close all running apps on your phone or tablet. Then, navigate to Settings, tap on Device Care, and select Optimize Now. This will close apps running in the background and optimize certain settings.
You can find more tips on keeping your device running smoothly by checking out the online article linked below. Thank you for being a Samsung customer!
