[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just purchased the Galaxy S26 to replace my S25+. Love that the smaller of the lineup is slightly bigger than last year's. 6.3 vs 6.1 inches screen. Phone is super fast and covers all the bands to stay connected anywhere with any carrier. My only gripe is that the S26, unlike it's larger siblings misses on the updated Bluetooth 6.0 version. Instead, it comes with last year's 5.4. so no Ultra Wide Band on the base S26. So no pinpointing with super accuracy your Samsung or Android Tags. Lower screen resolution than it's bigger siblings, although it's still better than anything you'll find out there even on the best iPhones. Also, no mmWave band support. Hopefully in the future Samsung gives their smaller Galaxy S devices the same love it shows to their Plus and Ultra.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My first experience was with the S24 Ultra. I fell in love. Now with the S26, that love has grown. I enjoy every aspect of this phone from its size shape and most of all, the color. It's just a beautiful experience all the way around.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose this phone because I love how it's small and sleek it makes it easier to hold in one hand and it fits easy in the pocket. The phone is affordable and the Galaxy AI can processes any task directly and it can automatically translate in real time phone calls,text messages, and your face to face conversations on a split screen. The camera is easy to use also and the pictures are so sharp and clear. I just love,love,love this phone the galaxy S26.

The Galaxy 26 does the job.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the S26 when I switched carriers, and I've been pleasantly surprised by how many helpful features it has, though it still has that base model feel.
The camera is clear, and the video qualy is better than I'd predicted.
Excellent audio quality for calls and video chats, though the speakers are lacking when playing media.
