    its a good phone, my S21 just up and died on me so i was forced to get a new one. this seemed to be the best choice, not a lot of time to research or think about it, had to get a replacement fast. Not impressed with battery life, would have expected peak performance for the price.

    I have always used the Samsung Galaxy phones for as long as I can remember. I have never had any problems at all with my phones. If you like a analog phone and haven't tried a Samsung Galaxy you need to try one and you will never buy another brand.

    I have need to upgrade for a while, I had an A53, this is so much better. Smartswitch App made it easy to setup. I didn't need the Ultra, so basic S26 is perfect for me.
