Not very satisfied.....
on May 25, 2026
Posted by: Mommyx5
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used to love getting the newest Samsung devices when they first started coming out. The Way it was so easy to link all my Samsung device through the Things app! Loved it and granted I still love that feature. But to get back on my current device.... not so satisfied... the User Interface is constantly crashing out every single time I restart my phone. The response time once making an app selection, is EXTREMELY SLOW! Picking up any wifi connection that is more than 20 feet or 30 feet from the router is almost physically impossible not to mention mention once you finally do connect good luck remaining connected. My husband has an s24 and has no problem getting amd keeping his wifi connection at the same distances. I understand that my device is a lower end Samsung device, but these things could really use some attention. Just because its the lower end device doesn't mean that it should lack on a quality level experience. I mean thats why people are supposed to thoroughly enjoy their Samsung devices is for the unique positive quality experiences that Samsung has to offer. Which right now is only a uniquely negative experience. I really do not like even admitting to that.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wish it had more astrophotography but this camera is awesome and so is AI. I loved my S22 ultra this is just more affordable but worth it! Next best thing.. I really recommend trying this if you miss your S series.

Decent Budget Phone
on May 25, 2026
Posted by: FieldRock99
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was forced to get this phone due to my carrier holding my old phone hostage when I switched and was moving across the country in less than three days. I was forced to get this one due to the price and for the price you pay it's not terrible but it's not excellent either. The phone is prone to slowing down quite a bit when multitasking or leaving more than a handful of apps open. For the price I'd say you could do alot worse but dont expect anything more than decent.
