Great phone for an even better price

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The galaxy A26 is honestly a class act in the A series. There are so many features this phone has to offer.I can't imagine spending the money buying any other series of phones. The a series has always done me , right. They now offer the circle and search , which is a great tool. There's now Galaxy AI. In your photo album, you can use Galaxy AI to erase anything in the picture that you want.And it looks absolutely amazing. So, editing and cropping pictures and video have never been easier and have never came out just as well or even better as any other phone on the market. Galaxy AI will also come up and explain anything that you need during search or photo search galaxy AI is there to get the job done. My only complaint would be the battery. I feel my phone.Battery doesn't last as long but will charge just as long as my husband who has the same phone but his battery life lasts a lot longer. That's why I did do four stars instead of five. That being said I can only imagine what the A series has in store in the future. I have full confidence in samsung to bring their A game and yes, pun intended.

Great phone, battery issues.
on June 2, 2026
Posted by: Needanewphone
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent for streaming and web surfing. AI came in handy for comparing items for certain features. The only issue was the touch screen wouldn't work all the time and Samsung support was not able to fix the issue. They stated the failure was due to water damage, which it was never exposed to.

Hey Sparks,
The Galaxy A26 5G combines Smart AI features, a vibrant display, and a smooth user experience. It's great to hear that it has become one of your favorite Galaxy devices, especially with the standout AI features.
If your Samsung phone is getting hot, there are various reasons for this, and it does not necessarily mean the device is faulty. When your device overheats, it will display a notification indicating that it is getting too hot. If the temperature rises significantly, the phone will shut itself down to protect its internal components. If you haven't received any warning notifications, your device is likely functioning normally.
Common causes of overheating include having too many apps open at once or using GPS alongside other applications, which can particularly engage the processor. For more tips on keeping your phone at a normal temperature, please refer to the link below.
We appreciate your enthusiasm for the design and thank you for choosing Samsung!
