This is the most durable and resilient phone!
on March 24, 2026
Posted by: LOVEmyGalaxyphone
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It has been a running joke in my family that cell phone manufacturers should send their newest model phones to me for durability testing. This is because I am extremely hard on my phones and I usually have to replace my phone every 2-3 months. Sometimes every month. This is not and exaggeration either! I either drop my phone repeatedly, not on purpose I am just clumsy. If I don't shatter the screen of my phone, I drop them in water, most of the time while washing dishes or taking a bath.
My Samsung Galaxy A26 is a game changer! I LOVE this phone. I have had my Galaxy A26 for over nine months now and I have dropped it on asphalt, on sidewalks and I even dropped it in my bath twice while scrolling during my bath! And it unbelievably is still working just as good as the day I bought it. I never even had to put it in a bag of rice or have it repaired for cracks and scratches. I finally have a phone that can endure me! When I do need to get a new phone you can bet it will be a Samsung Galaxy!

Hello Frank Lelyon,
Thank you for sharing your experience with the Galaxy A26 5G. The A26 is designed to adapt to your daily movements, featuring screen responsiveness and motion options that support quick transitions on the go.
If you're having trouble adjusting the screen brightness on your Galaxy phone, we have a detailed guide to help you. It provides steps to adjust the screen brightness directly from the Quick Panel. To do this, swipe down from the top right corner of your screen to open the Quick Panel. Look for the brightness slider, represented by a sun icon. You can drag the slider left to decrease brightness or right to increase it.
Additionally, there is an option for adaptive brightness, which automatically adjusts your screen brightness based on the surrounding environment. For instance, if you’re in a bright area, the screen will increase brightness, while in darker conditions, it will lower it. To enable or disable adaptive brightness, touch and hold the brightness slider to open the quick settings. Then, tap the switch next to "Adaptive brightness."
In the guide, you will find further ways to keep your display brightness adjusted to your preference.
To manage the orientation of your phone, you can make your device's screen rotate freely with Auto Rotate, or you can lock it in one position using either Portrait or Landscape mode. To adjust the screen rotation settings, swipe down from the top right of the screen to open the Quick Settings panel. Look for the screen orientation icon. Depending on your settings, you might find the Portrait, Landscape, or Auto Rotate icon. Remember, the Portrait and Landscape icons appear gray when active, while the Auto Rotate icon is blue or white when enabled.
If the screen is locked in Portrait or Landscape mode and you want to change it, simply tap the icon (either Portrait or Landscape) to activate Auto Rotate. If Auto Rotate is already enabled, no further action is needed. Once Auto Rotate is enabled, close the Quick Settings panel and hold your device in your desired position—either upright (Portrait) or sideways (Landscape).
Afterward, open the Quick Settings panel again by swiping down from the top of the screen. Tap the Auto Rotate icon to lock your device in your preferred position.
For further assistance on setting the orientation of your phone to your liking, please check out the link provided below. Many Galaxy users enjoy exploring display and motion settings to better align with how they naturally handle their devices. Thank you for being a Samsung customer!

Nice upgrade
on March 23, 2026
Posted by: Jmittlieder83
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was starting over recently and had the cheapest Samsung sold locally. It was time for an upgrade, and I settled on this one. I'm absolutely happy with my choice. It's faster, doesn't stall when playing games, and the extras are still occupying my free time
