Only Samsung phones for me!
on April 27, 2026
Posted by: TheOGuser
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used Samsung phones from the get go! No matter what carrier I have. My S26 has been fantastic. Aside from texting and talking, I mostly use my phone for playing games and photos. The picture quality with this phone is better than any other phone that my friends or family have with that other brand. Organizing my photos is so easy too. Even though you can't teach an old dog new tricks, learning to use the AI features has been simple.

Call screenings
on April 27, 2026
Posted by: June63
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like how one of the Galaxy AI features is screening all my calls. With all the spam calls I was getting I no longer have to deal with them. It ask who is calling and where from, and if they don't say anything then I don't ever receive the call.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The S26 is remarkably intuitive and helpful. The Galaxy AI has useful tools, such as Photo Assist and a noise filter.

This phone is Amazing!!!
on April 27, 2026
Posted by: Jordynn
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this phone! It's super fast and runs really well. I upgraded from the S25 Fan Edition and it was well worth it. It's stunning graphics and camera is wonderful. The reason I gave it 4 stars is because I honestly wish it had the privacy screen too like the s26 ultra but it doesn't. That's really all this phone is lacking. It could definitely be a bit bigger too but all in all one of the best phones I've ever had!!

It may be 'boring' but it gets the job done
on April 27, 2026
Posted by: ychia1
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lots of folks have noted that the base model is boring. But it is also very small and light for a current flagship, which is what I wanted.
And... finally has a 512GB option!
In other respects, it's a good all rounder. Not as great cameras as the Ultra of course, but really not bad either. Great performance, display, speakers, etc. The only thing smaller is a Z Flip, and it's not smaller when open (which is the only really usable configuration). Also is a lot more durable vs Z Flip.
Screen is flat, which I prefer. Makes it a lot easier to put tempered glass on it. Colors are also nice.
Wish list: faster charging. I mean, come on already. Silicon carbide battery would also be nice. But if I'm to be honest, I could live without either.
As far as Galaxy AI goes, it's basically a picture editor for me this far. I haven't used live translate or other features, just haven't had anyone to talk to that doesn't know English.

It's great
on April 27, 2026
Posted by: JayScott
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like all about it with the exception of the fingerprint and face recognition. After a day maybe it got to where it could not verify my fingerprint. Amd half the time says ita not me for the facial recognition. Other than that it is great. It's very fast, plenty of storage. The camera is unbelievable. Running powerful AI and python code is very doable on here. The in-house Galaxy AI is brilliant, as is the image studios. The ability to integrate Gemini and Perplexity is great as well. If a fix or cure for my fingerprint and facial problems is found, this would be a 5 and no complaints at all. Even with them, this is still the best phone I have ever had. Keep it up!

Amazing Phone
on April 27, 2026
Posted by: roxxia
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This S26 is amazing. Galaxy AI is very helpful, camera quality is good, minor performance issues, smooth gameplay, and overall is just high quality. I switched over from an S21, and while that was a good phone, this phone is even better! Amazing work, Samsung!
