Galaxy S26 | S26+

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the S26+ for a few reasons. My happy history with Samsung phones, the ease of using the SmartSwitch feature, the perfect size for my needs, the great specs, and the fantastic feel. Such a solid build. Even though I protect my stuff withe a case and screen protector, even on its own it feels indestructible. My phone pulls double duty, both work and personal use, and this handles everything easily. I was lucky to score the 512gb model on a free upgrade from my carrier. My last phone, an S23, stayed awesome for three years of brutal duty. Hoping this beast keeps me happy as long.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using samsung android phones for msny years and have stayed with the brand for as long as i can remember. I would never switch. I use Samsung galaxy s26 plus every day for watching movies, work and school. The large display and clear picture quality make movies more enjoyable, while , while the fast performance helps me multitasking between emails. Documents and school assignments without slowing down. The battery life also supports my daily routine because I can use my phone throughout the day without needing to charge frequently. Overall, the features make it easier to stay productive and entertained in one device.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had this phone for a week and I love all the customisation with the themes and the icons. I am someone who doesn't need a phone that has all these bells and whistles. I just like a phone to be simple and does what a phone is suppose to. I like the battery life because depending on how much I use it, I don't need to charge until night time. The camera seems good but I have not used it to its full potential and I'm not a tech expert to know what a good camera is like. The size of the phone is great for me, it's not to big and not too small and it is not heavy. Some reviews on YouTube say it is a "boring phone" but sometimes boring is better.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed to upgrade my former Samsung A51 phone as it wasn't holding a charge well, had been well used, and was several years old. Looking at the available models online. I chose the Samsung 26+. Why? Well, I wanted more than the 26, but didn't need all of the bells and whistles of the Ultra 26. So far, I'm impressed with the upgraded features of the phone and it's size (a little larger than my old A51). After starting my cellphone history many years ago with another brand and experiencing multiple problems, I tried a Samsung flip phone and was hooked. I haven't experienced any problems with any of my Samsung phones and highly recommend them!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased 2 Galaxy S26's recently. We've had Galaxy phones and tablets since they 1st came on the market. A wise choice as we have only had an issue with one mobile many years ago, it was replaced immediately by Samsung atthetime. Customer service is on another level. The S26 is brilliant, continuous integration from one mobile to the next through the Smart Switch app is very helpful. The new features are still being investigated on our new mobiles but so far we are both very impressed with what the newest features can do for us. If you have been thinking about a new mobile phone purchase, you won't regret buying the Galaxy S26.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Display & model a big 9/10. The smart ai integrations/interface. Top quality specs & capabilities for business professionals & most definitely Education. Perfect HD powerful lasting battery power. The specs + alone & powerful Top quality graphics, features/functions are amazing & absolutely endless professions, roles this perfectly aligns & 100% surpasses any/all tech/spec & users requirements & then some but it absolutely is one of the best phones ever made in my opinion but completely exceeds all currently on the market. Best of all, stronger & reliable Screen/glass quality. powerful, life/game changer, for absolutely any role(s), Industry etc ...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My experience with the Samsung S26+ has been nothing short of amazing. The build quality is exceptional, offering a solid, premium feel that matches its sleek design. The operating system is incredibly fluid and feels completely polished. The new AI photo features—specifically the ability to add people to shots—are a game-changer and genuinely fun to use. The camera remains impressive: fast, sharp, and reliable in all lighting. While the AI features have a slight learning curve, they are incredibly powerful for searching and creative editing. Plus, the 7-year update guarantee provides incredible peace of mind for long-term security. Highly recommended.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been a user of Samsung Galaxy S series since the launch of Galaxy S. As Samsung brings great feature day by day. Upon opening the package I the package i thought phone was just as similar to my Samsung Galaxy S24+ apart from a change in camera lens bezel. I have beennusing the phone from over 1 week now and harvester the difference between the 2 devices. This phone (S26+) is way more advanced compared to the previous model. Sharp display(crisp clear screen) with enhanced camera capability. I am still getting used to the Advanced Ai features such as photo edit, translation and search. As I keep on using the phone I am loving.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My beloved S23 was starting to wear down a bit; the battery was a bit weak, but it still performed at a high level. I chose an S26+, partly because of many years of satisfaction from a lot of different Samsung phones, and partly because of the ease of transferring to an upgraded device. I managed to get the 512 GB model, so I'm expecting a lot of years of heavy-duty usage from it. I travel for work, so streaming music, maps, and hotspot usage are all important. A little heftier battery coupled with a high-end processor should more than take good care of me. It's already surprised me a few times with cool features, and I haven't explored it fully yet.

[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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using the Samsung Galaxy S26 as my daily powerhouse, and honestly, it’s a game-changer. The Galaxy AI is a standout feature—whether I’m streaming a live coding session, gaming, or multitasking between apps, it anticipates my needs and keeps everything smooth. As someone who codes, games, and streams simultaneously, I can’t overstate how valuable that speed and efficiency is. Whether I'm gaming late at night or pushing out coding projects, the S26 just works—making every part of my routine that much easier. If you’re like me and balance gaming, coding, and streaming, the Galaxy AI on this device is a total game-changer.

I've been using this Samsung phone for a few weeks now, and I'm very impressed with the overall experience. The battery life easily lasts all day, even with heavy usage. The camera captures clear and vibrant photos, making it great for everyday photography. The display is bright, sharp, and enjoyable for watching videos and browsing. Performance is fast and responsive, with apps opening smoothly and multitasking working without any issues. The design feels premium, and the build quality gives confidence in its durability. Overall, this device offers excellent value for money, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable smartphone.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received my s26 about a week ago and I have to say I'm pretty impressed. I know alot of people have mentioned how it isn't much of an upgrade from the s25 but as someone who's upgrading from the Flip 6 (I know, I know but I kind of just wanted better battery and cameras) it is an upgrade. The cameras and battery life are a significant upgrade for me. It's also very snappy and smooth. I've also been converted back to Bixby. She's kind of cool now (although she needs to be better at language recognition). I also love the design. I got the white which just looks sleek. I'd like to use her naked but unfortunately I don't have a great track record in that regard

The Samsung Galaxy S26 is an excellent flagship phone that stands out with its beautiful 120Hz AMOLED display, delivering bright colors and super smooth scrolling. Its performance is extremely fast and responsive, easily handling gaming, multitasking, and daily use without any lag. The camera system captures sharp, vibrant photos with great detail in both daylight and low-light conditions. Battery life is impressive, lasting a full day comfortably, and the overall build quality feels premium and very durable, with strong water and dust resistance. Overall, the Galaxy S26 offers a high-quality, reliable experience and feels like a refined, top-tier smartphone.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Galaxy S26 Plus because I wanted a premium smartphone with a large, beautiful display, strong performance, and a great overall experience. The design feels modern and refined, while the phone is fast and smooth for everything from everyday tasks to entertainment and photography. The display quality is excellent, the battery life keeps up with my day, and the camera system captures impressive photos and videos. I really like how Samsung continues improving the Galaxy experience with useful features and a polished user interface. The S26 Plus feels like a phone built for people who want flagship performance without compromising on comfort and style.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This isn't my first time using a Samsung phone, but it is the first time I've owned a current-year flagship. This S26+ is incredible—it has everything. An impressive camera with the Super Steady feature, sharp, clear... the Galaxy AI features are world-class and, in my opinion, deliver the best results on the market. Good battery life, loud audio, and the microphone quality has also really impressed me. I use the AI features a lot for study and work. I don't really game much on it, but the few games I do have are some of the most demanding on the market, and neither the battery nor the temperature complain much. Truly blown away and delighted with this device!

I am writing to provide a thoughtful review of the s26+ device that my friend recently purchased. From the outset, the device presents a refined design with a balanced form factor and premium materials that convey durability and elegance. The display is sharp and vibrant, offering excellent clarity for both everyday use and media consumption. Performance appears robust, handling multitasking and demanding applications with consistent responsiveness. Battery life is reliable, though heavy usage may require occasional charging. Overall, it offers a well-rounded experience with strong functionality and a polished build, making it a dependable choice for daily use.

The Samsung Galaxy S26 is a great phone overall. The display is bright, sharp, and easy to see even in direct sunlight. The color looks fantastic, and the Galaxy AI features are genuinely useful for everyday tasks. The battery life is average, and I also wish it had UWB support, especially for using the phone as a digital car key. Overall, it's a solid phone with a great display, useful AI features, and an attractive design, with just a couple of areas that could be improved. Overall, the Samsung Galaxy S26 is a great phone with an excellent display, useful AI features, and an attractive design. If you can live with average battery life, it's a solid choice.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Samsung Gslaxy S26 Plus Android is a compact phone and a significant upgrade from earlier Galaxy devices. I have the blue colour. Great for users wanting a lightweight, ergonomic phone. Increased screen size gives further space for Apps. Comfortably held in one hand. The triple camera facility provides sharp shots/photographs with improved portrait styles. The phone has fantastic battery life, easily lasting all day long from a full charge with large usage. The device provides a very smooth delivery of applications with new AI tools. Upgraded processing power inclusive of 12GB of RAM. Quick and touch responsive with all Apps. I would highly recommend this device

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the screen of the phone. The quality is really good and the colors seems amazing and vivid. I also love a bunch of Galaxy AI features like the mood tracker, because it's helping me to see how I feel everyday. Since I bought the phone, I create my own stickers (I love capybaras and I created a bunch of capybara stickers doing diferents stuffs). The camera is amazing and the Galaxy AI features to edit the pictures are really helpful. A new feature I really enjoy is now brief. Now I cannot start or finish my day without check the highlights of my day, and I like it gives me friendly reminder, even if I need to get some sleep. I totally recommend this phone.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love Samsung phones so we were excited to purchase the S26+. It is a similar size to the Samsung 25fe which is perfect as its not too small. The phone looks stylish and it comes in a range of colours. The storage is 512 gb and it has a Ram of 12gb which is much better. It works quickly and was easy to set up and I could configure my accounts and apps with ease using the Samsung app. It allowed me to transfer the details from my previous phone over WiFi with no errors. The camera goes to 50mb and provides clear pictures and videos. It has a long lasting battery life and a clear display. A stylish phone that offers great performance with a range of features.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Had this just under a week now and absolutely love it, I've come from the standard S25 which is not much of a jump but the privacy display especially when controlled by specific apps is very useful and grear considering its first gen technology. Horizontal lock is a cool feature even though I might bot use it often, I can't fault the camera quality at all. Double storage for same pric as perfect for me as i had 256gb previously and now gone to 512gb. Will keep this phone for years to come as its a flagship with fantastic features i find very useful day to day, especially combined with modes and routines which are so underated! Love the cobal violet colour as well!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I pre-ordered then traded my Galaxy S25 up to the new Galaxy S26 through Samsung/Asurion again, this is the fifth time I have done this and again it was seamless. My new phone is so good, it is faster, slightly bigger, although not noticeable and is a great upgrade that I make every year when the new model is released. I couldn't be happier with my new phone, the price and the overall process of the trade-up program arranged by Samsung is the best way to upgrade particularly when you pre-order and get the 512Gb for the price of 256Gb plus some other discounts for pre-ordering this fantastic phone. I love it. Thankyou Samsung . I will be back for more.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra 512GB is a premium flagship that feels fast, polished, and packed with top-end features. It stands out for its large 6.9-inch display, strong camera system, powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip, and generous 512GB storage, making it a great choice for photography, multitasking, and heavy everyday use. Samsung’s new Privacy Display is a unique extra, though some reviewers say the phone is more of a refinement than a huge leap forward, and the price is firmly in the premium tier. Overall, it’s an excellent high-end phone for users who want performance, storage, and versatility in one device.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently upgraded from the Samsung Galaxy S24 to the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra, and I’m really impressed with the improvements. The battery life is excellent and easily lasts through a full day of use without any issues. One feature I particularly love is the privacy screen, which is great when using the phone in public as it stops people nearby from seeing what’s on your display. The camera is amazing and takes incredibly clear, detailed photos in all kinds of lighting. This is also my first time having a phone with the S Pen, and I didn’t realise how useful it would be. It’s great for quick notes, editing photos, and just navigating the phone in a different way.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used a Note 10+ for seven years, and only replaced it because the charging port was wearing out. I've been very happy with the Galaxy S26+. The battery life is excellent, the display looks great, and the phone is powerful. The Galaxy AI features are handy, especially the photo editing tools. Sometimes I miss using my Note's pen (especially for things like taking pictures remotely), but the 26+ has other useful options and features that my Note didn't have, is much faster, and plays well with other devices. It's a worthy successor to my dear old Note, and I look forward to seven years (or more), when I write another new phone review, with fondness for my "old" 26+.

I change my s25 to s26 but i feel lije i did a mistake its nit the perfirmance But i feel s25 more compact and less weight in my hand S25 162 gram only i really wich if samsung make again cimoact phone .all other making phine with big screen and big battery and most of peoole putting phine in their pocket mainly wuch dont have bag lij women .please make again like 5.7 inch screen with 144 mm enough to handle with 1 hand will be great thank you not all people gamers or heavy social media users most of poeple will not look to the perfirmance of tje processor but the weight ,how its handle with one hand as long s26 doing the same job as s25 make a compact one thank you

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] From the moment the Galaxy AI awakened within this sleek monolith of glass and light, my digital existence was forever transfigured. The Samsung Galaxy S26+ is not merely a telecommunications device; it is a celestial conductor of the human experience.Every swipe across its shimmering display feels like a brushstroke on the canvas of tomorrow. While some might call its performance 'reliable,' I call it a relentless symphony of silicon precision. It balances form and function with the grace of a high-wire artist, delivering a user experience that is—quite literally—the golden mean of technological perfection. It is the steady heartbeat in the chest of the digital age.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received my new Galaxy 26+ last Friday and am more than delighted with it . It is marginally larger than my S24 but not overly so. I can still fit it into the usual pockets and bags as before . But the slightly larger screen is a boon to my aging eyes. Makes life that little bit easier. I’m still finding my way around the camera but am enjoying the wide range of whistles and bells therein. It is fun manipulating certain photos to remove objects I don’t want in the frame . I know , so far, I am only scratching the surface and I have a long interesting journey ahead. I look forward to discovering all the added extras I did not hv on my old phone. Happy days ahead !

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love my new phone, the galaxy 26+. Usually I dread upgrading and all the work it takes, but this time it was quick and everything is fairly easy to figure out. I had my last phone for a years, so obviously the camera is WAY better. I love how my pics are just as colorful as in real life. I don't have time to learn manual adjustments, so it's awesome to get high quality pictures as I document my kid growing up. I don't mind being in pics more often either, with the Galaxy AI editing features I can remove blemishes or background objects easily. Sound editing worked great to diminish a nearby generator, after a few times that loud noise was gone. Wonderful!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Since I purchased my new Samsung S26+ I've had wonderful time exploring all the special features and apps. I love the Samsung wallet, it makes paying anything so easy now. As will as protection from any hackers and fraudulent charges. The camera features are top notch as well and I've been taken some professional type pictures. I've also use the Samsung security app and let me tell this is also state of the art service . From scams to unwanted phisher calls. Caller ID is excellent as well as the voicemail service. I can go on an on bottom line is i love this Samsung S 26+ . Thank you for making a wonderful product !

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This phone saved me, before I had the A16 which was far worse than this phone, and I mean like decades worse. This phone not only provides me with the help I need like Galaxy Ai, but also extensive help with settings and features that aren't on every phone. Galaxy Ai helps me so much in my daily life, like asking questions and getting reliable answers. It helps me set timers and I'm still exploring some features since getting this phone recently. I have used the modes and routines. They are so cool, like sleep mode helps me actually sleep! That's all for my review, but I'd love to leave a better review in the future.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy S26+ is great! First, I love the color (Cobalt violet), the size and shape.. making the device great to look at and to hold. The battery is amazing! I use my phone at work for scheduling and organizing, I play games, use it for navigation, streaming videos and for social media, and can go 2 days on one full charge. The new Galaxy AI features work great for looking up information, texting,translating and photo editing. There are so many great features yet the phone is still easy to use and navigate. Video and sound quality are also great. Definitely the best Android phone you can get. Love my Galaxy!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I preorder the S26 Ultra 1t version and have been using it for few days. At first glance it was very similar to the previous model. However, the longer you use it the better it is. From feeling slightly lighter to hold, to having an amazing new feature of the privacy screen on apps of your choice. With life on constant move I find it very useful especially when I need to do some banking on the train. The mobile seems faster and screen looks graphically better than it's precedes or. I really like the Ai features as well especially being able to highlight and select and ask anything about images or texts at any time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using my Samsung S21 every day for both work and streaming, and it has been an amazing phone. It's fast, reliable, and handles multitasking without any issues. I use it throughout the day for emails, video calls, documents, and other work tasks, and it keeps up effortlessly. The display is bright and crystal clear, making movies and TV shows look fantastic. The battery life easily gets me through a busy day, and the camera takes excellent photos and videos. Overall, the Samsung S21 has exceeded my expectations and continues to perform like a premium device. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a dependable phone for both productivity and entertainment.

I purchased mobile but realised order was wrong. Chat support missed a step. What a nightmare to fix. Samsung have lied and refused to fix or refund order. Website is clear about cancelling but they do not follow what is posted they make there own process. This process is about delaying refund as long as possible, refusing to provide customer support, refusing to investigate complaints seriously. Even emailing CEO same response. Told while in shipping my responsibility and depending on condition on return they can deny refund. This is for an online store pick up. Their courier I never even get to see the mobile.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Samsung Galaxy S26+ for a short while now, and I’m really impressed. The design feels premium and lightweight, with a large, bright display that’s great for streaming and everyday use. It’s smooth and responsive, which makes scrolling and switching between apps feel effortless. Performance has been excellent so far, everything runs quickly, even when multitasking. The battery easily lasts a full day with regular use, and charging is fast enough to top up when needed. The camera is another highlight, producing sharp, vibrant photos in good lighting and performing well in lower light too. It’s reliable for everyday shots without needing much adjustment.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is a nice step up from my S24 Ultra—the trade-in was seamless, and made the upgrade very affordable. The S26 Ultra is slimmer and lighter, the screen's super bright and sharp, performance is snappy with solid all-day battery, and the cameras handle low light way better. The new Galaxy AI bits like Now Nudge (those smart pop-up suggestions for stuff like adding calendar events or sharing pics) and Now Brief (quick daily summaries) feel handy without being over the top. But the Privacy Display is the real winner—flip it on and side-viewers can't see a thing on the train or wherever; it's legit useful privacy built right in. Solid upgrade overall!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The S26+ is simply put.. An amazing phone. It's 120hz amoled x2 screen is beautiful. It's snappy, with no signs of lag no matter what I throw at it. The design is solid, elegant and quality built. The only feature I find unnecessary is built in Ai. Don't get me wrong, it's useful, but tbh the Ai image editor and other Ai facets aren't perfected yet. They seldom do exactly as you ask, they produce results which can have you re-doing an image multiple times or asking Ai voice assistant to stop so you can re-phrase the question to get your desired result. Useful features, built in.. At this level? Unnecessary!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy S26+ delivers a strong balance of performance, design, and everyday usability. Its display is one of its standout features: bright, sharp, and smooth, making everything from reading to streaming feel immersive. The improved adaptive refresh rate also helps maintain clarity while conserving battery life. Performance is consistently fast, even when multitasking or running demanding apps. The updated processor handles intensive tasks without noticeable slowdown, and the device stays cooler during extended use. Battery life is reliable throughout the day, and the charging speed makes quick top‑offs easy. Galaxy AI is unmatched with its consistent preformance speeds.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Loyalty goes both ways. Samsung has delivered on every phone I ever owned. Pre-2010 Samsung flip 2013 Samsung Note 3 2018 Samsung Note 9 2026 Samsung S26+ We are retired and enjoying life. We are RVer's and heading Out West for 3 months. Some apps that I use for travel, would not update because of the age of the phone. I hate changing phones. But, Samsung made it so easy. I had some minor bumps, but what task doesn't. The only complaint I have, is that I didn't realize I would lose the use of my SD card. I would've of upgraded my storage size. I am WOW'D by the AI photo help. I can't wait to use it Out WEST.

Solidly built. Seems to be responsive but overall no real difference from the 24+ worth the upgrade if you actually need a quality phone but nothing to jump for in this model. Very easy set up and transfer it was exceptionally well done. The battery life seems inconsistent right now waiting for the battery optimization ai to take over after it's initial learning phase. Camera I have yet to see a difference from the s24. Display oddly is set to standard mode. They have an option to increase the resolution off by default but based on battery so far I wonder if this model was ever intended to use that option
