The software is a mess
on June 27, 2026
Posted by: John
from Miami
The problems started when all my apps on the home page disappeared. They were all now in an app drawer. I had to bring them back to the home page. Then they disappeared again. Then they reappeared. Wow, this thing is confusing. Next, the phone started installing new apps spontaneously. It installed five different text apps. I could not stop it and can't figure out which ones I should delete and which single one I should keep. Next it freezes up and won't do anything. Then it spontaneously presents ads that I can't stop or get rid of. This phone is a mess. I wish I never got it. And it keeps getting worse. Now I can't open the email app. Instead I get advertising that I can't stop. When the ad ends, the phone locks up and I have to turn it off and back on again for it to work.
Update:
I solved my problems with this phone. I threw it in the trash.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The S26 as a daily driver.
on June 25, 2026
Posted by: Reviewer
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The base model of the S26 is an amazing phone it has about 20 hours of battery life before it gets to around 20 percent and I charge it while not letting it get past 80% battery life the camera is great not just that but having 256gb is a life changer from someone who has had 64gb and I no longer really worry about the storage not only that but this being my first experience with Galaxy AI and its not a bad thing I've used it sparingly with live translate because of the giddy feeling you get when have new features and see it online so I experimented with my bilingual family not only that but I've used the feature in gallery that allows you to cut things or people out while also keeping a relatively good quality and seems better than most other apps I've seen do it so overall my experience with it has been great.

This product is amaizing
on June 22, 2026
Posted by: L1l14587
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently received my new Samsung S26, and I am very impressed with the device. Compared to the other Samsung S26 models, I particularly appreciate its more compact size, which suits my preferences perfectly.
The Galaxy AI features have been extremely helpful and have made my daily tasks much easier by quickly providing the information I need.
However, I have noticed one issue that does not seem to be working as expected. Samsung Pass is currently unable to save my passwords and displays a message indicating that the service is temporarily unavailable.

More than I expected
on June 22, 2026
Posted by: AKB0522
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always loved my Samsung devices and needed an upgrade so decided on the S26. The Galaxy AI makes this device a great choice. I'm still learning all of the options but the main reason I wanted an S series was to be able to use my Galaxy buds to the fullest extent. It pairs well with all of my Samsung devices and the camera is amazing!
