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

[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!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my phone for my calendar to keep all my activities on check, use the camera to record my kids sports. The phone calls and text and email for work.
It's amazing how Galaxy AI has helped me improve everything I do with my phone. It makes everything so easy. All of this in perfect size phone, nothing too big.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Galaxy AI is phenomenal the possibilities are endless! I use Gemini everyday any questions that I have through out the day are easily answered no matter what the subject! I am so much better at getting things right! I would be completely lost without my Samsung Galaxy s26! I love this phone it does so much love it!
