Worst Phone I Have Ever Bought
on November 27, 2021
Posted by: April
from Utah
Life long Samsung user and I thought I would be happy with them forever. However, only after about a month of having this phone with no big drops and a case on it, the back of the phone completely cracked. And then less than a year after getting the phone, it began to restart randomly. At first it would restart about once or twice a day and it would be quick to reboot back on, but then it progressed to restarting at least 20 times a day and sometimes taking 10-20 minutes to turn back on. And then suddenly, one day when it restarted it no longer displayed my lock screensaver and is now currently in a never ending loop of restarting, asking for my pin, restarting, asking for my pin...I had my last phone (galaxy s7) for about 4 years with no problems before upgrading and I was hoping the durability and quality of the newer phones would be comparable but no luck I guess.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

A waterproof phone that always says "moisture.....

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Extremely aggravated with the charging capabilities. Even though I HAVE NEVER GOTTEN THIS PHONE WET, NOR TAKEN IT INTO THE BATHROOM, I continuously get the dreaded lightening bolt. I have had numerous visits and phone calls all over the freakin 5G network. They think I got it wet....no if, ands or butts, they know it all. Stuck with their crap....gggrrrrrrrr!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Overall a solid phone

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this when it first came out. Upgraded from an S9+ and I am pleased with the overall performance boost. Battery lasts all day, unless I'm playing a lot of games. 5G could be better but I have no doubt that will continue to improve as the infrastructure gets upgraded.

Smartphone without microSD card is rubbish

Want to increase the price of their mobile phone through memory. How can Samsung say that the card is not used in most users.
A smartphone these days without an SD card is rubbish.

The most unstable and unusable S series I've owned
on December 13, 2021

I've been a Samsung Phone user since my first one in South Korea in 2010. From the time I purchased this phone in March it was been plagued with issues any time an update is released. I went through 3 months of the phone failing OTA updates needing the ROM reflashed each time. I finally learned that it can only safely take an update via computer. Then Samsung made effort to make even that crash my phone with it's November and subsequent updates. The phone restarts every 2-5 minutes after freezing. I can't rely on it for anything, I've lost multiple 2FA accounts, Gmail just crashes now. It's absolutely absurd. If Samsung does not make a fast turn around and make amends I'll be switching to Apple products. Apple at least has a quality control section.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Camera features are amazing. I've used most features to prepare presentations - the video and picture quality is second to none.
I would recommend this to a friend!
