[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the new 26+. I upgraded from the 24+. The look of the display is smooth and the transitions between apps and screens is lovely. I was going to use the Galaxy AI feature to write my review but I didn't. I have used the AI to set up routines with my goggle home and it was seamless. The weight of the phone is nice. The camera is great for taking all kinds of shots. I have only had the device for a few weeks and I haven't had a chance to play with it much but I look forward to learning all the new tricks!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't care for the raised rear cameras. With the case on, when you set the phone down on a flat surface, it's off level from that projection from the cameras
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus is a fantastic flagship that strikes an excellent balance between size, performance, and cutting-edge features. Its 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display is vibrant and sharp, with smooth 120Hz refresh and excellent brightness for outdoor use. Powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 (or Exynos 2600 in some regions), it delivers blazing-fast performance for gaming, multitasking, and everyday tasks, paired with a solid 4900mAh battery that easily lasts a full day or more. What truly sets the S26 Plus apart is its advanced Galaxy AI suite, which feels more intuitive and proactive than ever. Standout features include: Now Nudge: This smart contextual assistant pops up helpful suggestions right when you need them—like pulling up your calendar during a chat about plans or jumping to the gallery to share photos—without interrupting your flow. Photo Assist and Creative Studio: Editing photos is effortless with text prompts for quick enhancements, object removal, or creative reimaginings, while Audio Eraser cleans up video noise beautifully. Now Brief: Delivers personalized bite-sized summaries and reminders based on your habits, like upcoming bookings or birthdays. Other gems like improved Call Assist, Writing Assist, and seamless integration with tools like Gemini make productivity and creativity feel effortless. Galaxy AI runs smoothly in the background, making the phone feel truly helpful rather than gimmicky.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The only phone you need it does it all I love the Galaxy s26+ the photo resolution is out of this world I'm very picky when it comes to purchasing a new phone due to work related projects and in fact the s26+ with Galaxy AI my projects are fun and go above and beyond ..it blows my mind of what it's capable of doing i give it 5 out of 5 stars !
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently as in 3 months ago traded my s24+ because of micro phone issues. I received my S25+ approximately 3 months ago. I charge my phone mostly at night so that I'm not charging while using it. In this past 2 weeks my phone is not wanting to charge. One cord I've had for almost a year but my 2nd cord is new, I ordered it online. Either cord has to be put into port several tries before it will charge. Is this a me issue a cord issue or a charger port issue. Is this happening to a lot of s25+ phones or do I need new cord. Otherwise this phone is a great choice and the Galaxy AI is great I've used it in messaging with my family.
