SHOW ME THE MONEY
on June 9, 2026
Posted by: Keeppushin100
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the new version. I had an S10 in the past, the only thing I despise about the phone is the way im bombarded with ads even in apps that shouldn't be ad approved. So at this point, I KNOW Samsung is getting paid and I need a piece of that ASAP!!! LOL NOW SHOW ME THE MONEY HONEY!!!!

Does literally everything well
on June 11, 2026
Posted by: ChungusAmongus
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Having been an android adopter from the very start, new iterations of the software and devices have always gotten me excited. A purest, I've tended toward those devices whose software was most like vanilla android, often avoiding the samsung offering until my previous device the s22, when I needed something I knew by reputation would be reliable and well supported with features, updates, and the robust samsung ecosystem. When it was time to upgrade, I had been convinced and I knew exactly what to do.
The samsung ID, biometrics, password vault, and general phone swap readiness made transferring my old device a breeze. The phone's snappy processor and graphics unit make every action feel smooth and seemeless while the storage is never at risk of filling due to cloud backups of data and tunable storage related settings including cleaning, etc.
Media wise, the wifi 7 antenna makes streaming video and playing games on this brilliant screen consistent, buffer free, sharp, and color accurate with up to 1440p60 hdr content! Games are great too, with fast downloads, and up to 120 fps.
The updated Galaxy AI adds a whole new aspect of convenience with bixby setting alarms, helping me with recipes and organizing my day to day tasks with simplicity. And all this on a single charge per day with unrivaled batter life.
To be honest there are so many features im still learning how to improve my experience with things getting faster and easier as I go along. 10/10 Galaxy for the win.

Product has real features!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Why I'm Actually Excited About the Galaxy S26
Look, I've had phones that promise the world and deliver... meh. But the S26's Galaxy AI actually does stuff I care about.
Real talk on what stands out:
Live Translate is a game-changer. My cousin in Italy calls, we just... talk. No awkward pauses, no "wait, what did you say?" It just works.
Circle to Search? I see something random on Instagram, circle it, done. No typing "blue jacket thing from that show" and hoping for the best.
Photo editing that doesn't make me want to throw my phone. Remove photobombers, move stuff around, fix lighting—without needing a design degree.
The camera just gets it. Dark restaurant? Moving kid? It handles the messy stuff so I don't have to think about settings.

It's the first phone where the AI features feel like they were made for actual humans, not just demo videos.

Functions as intended but terrible camera location
on June 11, 2026
Posted by: MattsS26Review
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed a new phone to replace my 9 year old galaxy s8 edge. Considering that phone lasted me so long (and I still use it btw), I figured I'd stick with a brand that's been tried and proven. I don't really use this new s26 for much other than basic calling, and app browsing. I have no desire whatsoever to use the Galaxy AI. The battery life is very impressive but that's really all the good I have to say about it. The camera lens location is terrible (I think google phones do it the best) and makes wireless charging on the older style chargers nearly impossible without positioning this a certain way. The fact that this thing also has two Sim card slots, yet no removable storage is equally infuriating. I'm glad I got a decent deal on this but I'm seriously considering trading this in for the new Google pixel phone when it comes out.
