[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy AI is ok but based on what the phone does for me, it's not anything to get excited for. In my opinion there needs to be more automation. These phones need to get to know us, out habits and our mannerisms, then make decisions based on that information. Once that data has been obtained and studied, find ways to integrate Galaxy AI with apps that can do tasks for us.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I honestly at times would rather go back to the older versions as this model does not meet my expectations.
There are so many glitches that need to be worked out. My phone lights up constantly when not touching it. The camera settings are awful and the keyboard is very sensitive. So many things I could say.
The only plus side is the battery life. But other than that I'm truly debating on getting a 26 plus and returning this one if the glitches can't be fixed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think my Samsung s26 is great. The features that Galaxy AI keep showing me continue to make things easier and help me stay organized. A game on it and take pictures and learning all the different ways that I can customize things I do is fascinating and helps make it easier to do more.
