Great phone and a good camera. I like being able to assign a section of storage for use as RAM. In an Otterbox Defender case if feels right in my hand. Controls are familiar and the screen is very responsive. Setting up from my old phone was very easy as the new process by cable moved my Google and Samsung accounts seamlessly to the new phone. It just took sometime to set up the apps that were transferred. Hopefully in the future transfer will be even easier by moving app credentials at the same time.
Went from an S22-256GB to the S26+ - 512GB. Wow, what a difference. I usually stick with a phone for as long a possible. So, looking forward to many years with this one.
The phone that I replaced was 4 years old. Maybe I had too high of hopes, but I really don't see much of a difference between this model and the old one. Its strictly a work phone, so no social media or watching videos on it, no pictures except for work photos. I honestly can't tell any difference in resolution, sharpness, or internet speed. Less WOW than a dental exam.
I would recommend this to a friend!
