I wanted the size to be maintained or reduced.
on March 9, 2026
Posted by: ThisIsaPPPPEN
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Transferring from S24. I changed my phone before the rising memory costs were reflected in the price. Honestly, there haven't been any significant changes other than the increase in memory from 8GB to 12GB. I'm actually dissatisfied with the slightly larger size. If you attach a case to your phone, it becomes heavier, and if you attach a back accessory, it becomes even heavier. There's no doubt that this size increase has made it even more difficult to use in exchange for the battery, which hasn't increased by even 10%. There are countless options for larger models, so I'd like the next one to be smaller. While there shouldn't be any changes in camera performance, the lens has become larger compared to the S24. I like the design of the lens lined up vertically, but the addition of a camera bumper limits the back accessories. If it's this obstructive, there's no need for a camera bumper. The position of MagSafe is bad, and you can't attach MagSafe MOFT. The transcription and summarization of voice recorders using Galaxy AI are very useful, so I hope the s26 will improve its accuracy. For weight reduction, I hope not to have Magsafe on main unit will be maintained. Most people use cases. Just buy Magsafe case for those who needs it. The strength of the standard s series lies in its high-end "compactness," so I absolutely want it to maintain its compactness and lightness.

Hello ThisIsaPPPPEN, we appreciate you taking time out of your day to provide feedback on your Samsung Galaxy S26. We know it can take time to adjust to the changes in design made to your new device from your previous device and the change from the 6.2 inch display size to the 6.3 inch may feel different in your hand initally and be distracting or distressing. We have a range of accessory options to help you choose protection that best aligns to your needs and wants along with the magnet charging. We have provided a link to the Samsung Support Team if you have questions about accessory options or you are experiencing frustrations with your new phone. We appreciate you being a Samsung customer. -Elizabeth

My favorite so far
on March 17, 2026
Posted by: Pynk
from Houston, TX
I love Samsung products. I'm also glad that they are producing more colors for the phone because I'm so in love with the color of my phone. I wish it was like that in phone stores instead of just online. The slim sleek design is gorgeous and light weight. The screen shows crystal clear and so does the camera. This phone lets you do amazing things like my keyboard has my baby picture as the background. The battery lasts a good time and charges super fast.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Samsung s26 galaxy AI
on March 19, 2026
Posted by: JP2026
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just got my Samsung s26 galaxy AI setup was easy and faster than any of my previous phones! So far am very happy with it coming from the s22. Only complaint so far is some of the pre installed apps I can't uninstall or even disable. So far so good with it !!

It's a flagship model, right?!?!
on April 22, 2026
Posted by: AeyJay
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The S26 is a great device. It has the speed and power necessary for pretty much anything you can throw at it. I question the decision to offer certain functions/capabilities on the ultra, but not standard s26, either this is your flagship or not. If I bought an S26FE, I would expect the lack of premium features, and if I bought an A series even more so. Again, it's a great phone, but...
The built in Ai comes in handy sometimes.

Review of Galaxy s26
on April 27, 2026
Posted by: DancingHeart
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased Galaxy A26 because my Galaxy S20 had maxed out on storage memory, although I also had a SD card installed. The S20 wouldn't take photos anymore nor download any apps, therefore I rushed to purchase a new phone before I lost all my photos and/or data. I was not aware of the noticeable differences between A26 versions. Having vision challenges, the A26 is much smaller and difficult to read. In addition, although I do not use the phone to make calls or text, (because I don't like this phone),
the battery does not keep a charge. Worst yet, it takes an abnormally long time to reach 100% charge regardless if it's 35% or 55% battery level. What's amazing is that this is a problem even using a super fast charger . It takes longer to reach 100% battery level than even my old S20+. The plain A26 is very difficult to type on since its small. The camera does not take sharp pictures like other models. Last, it is disturbing that all promotions and/or accessories highly promote all the other A26 models, but not the plain A26. I strongly regret buying this phone but now have to pay it off.
