[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Transferring from S24. I changed my phone before the rising memory costs were reflected in the price. Honestly, there haven't been any significant changes other than the increase in memory from 8GB to 12GB. I'm actually dissatisfied with the slightly larger size. If you attach a case to your phone, it becomes heavier, and if you attach a back accessory, it becomes even heavier. There's no doubt that this size increase has made it even more difficult to use in exchange for the battery, which hasn't increased by even 10%. There are countless options for larger models, so I'd like the next one to be smaller. While there shouldn't be any changes in camera performance, the lens has become larger compared to the S24. I like the design of the lens lined up vertically, but the addition of a camera bumper limits the back accessories. If it's this obstructive, there's no need for a camera bumper. The position of MagSafe is bad, and you can't attach MagSafe MOFT. The transcription and summarization of voice recorders using Galaxy AI are very useful, so I hope the s26 will improve its accuracy. For weight reduction, I hope not to have Magsafe on main unit will be maintained. Most people use cases. Just buy Magsafe case for those who needs it. The strength of the standard s series lies in its high-end "compactness," so I absolutely want it to maintain its compactness and lightness.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my phone mostly for gaming and work now that I'm out of college. I've been a samsung user since around 2014 and have never looked back. Some of the new features with Galaxy AI and Briefs seem really cool and I am looking forward to integrating them into my life. I was surprised the pink option they offered looked more like their champagne washer/dryer color but that isn't a negative. I've always preferred switching to new phones using my physical Sim card and was happy so see it was still an option.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Upgrading from my Galaxy S23+. Decided to go with the basic S26 this time. Phone is super light in my hand. Screen resolution is great. Sound is great. Processing time is great. Using Galaxy AI makes this phone seamless to accomplish any tasks you need. Definitely recommend.
