    A sleek and powerful smartphone with a gorgeous AMOLED display, smooth performance, reliable cameras, and all-day battery life. The Cobalt Violet color looks premium and unique. Great value for anyone looking for a high-end Android phone

    I'd say I'm 95% satisfied with it. Just a couple of weird things that Samsung has done compared to my older Samsung S8. For one, the notifications are very small in the upper left corner. On older Samsung, you could make them larger and easier to see from a distance. But this is the one that made me almost literally throw the phone out the window!! Plus it cost me $40 to get fixed (but it wasn't really broken, it just acted like it. What happened is this: If you use the Secured Folder, naturally you have to set a password to use it so that it is secured. I do not secure my phone in its normal mode so I do not set it to have a password. BUT, after you set the password for the Secure Folder and you close the Secure Folder, it then locks your phone without having set a password. I had to pay $40 to have the phone reset to factory settings after spending 2 full days trying to set it up the way I wanted it and then brought it home and spent many, many more hours setting it up again. I left the Secure Folder alone for about a week, then opened it again after setting its password and THE SAME THING HAPPENED WHERE I GOT LOCKED OUT OF THE PHONE!!!! You would think they would tell you what happens when you set the Secure Folder password. What it does (for safety sake they say) is automatically lock the phone with the Secure Folder password after the Folder is used. Then you have to sign in to use the phone and go back into settings and change the phone password to either None, another password or the same, or a code. Anyway, now I know that but it's a rea; hassle to have to do that every time I use the Secure Folder. The only other thing that really stinks about the phone is the lack of decent notification sounds. There are very, very few and the ones they have are really bad. Otherwise, I love the phone.

    It is an absolutely safe, reliable purchase. It offers no revolutionary changes, but everything related to everyday use—screen, performance speed, sound, premium materials—is a 10 out of 10. If you don't need the Ultra's insane camera capabilities, the Plus is an excellent choice.

    It's a good phone with enough power to power for work. It's not a gamers phone. It's sharp clear and easy to use. This is my work phone. It lasts the day. It's the right size to carry.

    I decided on the S26+ due to the battery life. It did not disappoint! I thought the size of the phone was going to be too big for me, but it isn't much bigger than the S21 I had previously.

    Honestly one of the best phones I’ve owned

    I’ve had the Galaxy S26+ for a few weeks now and I can genuinely say I’m impressed. I went with the Cobalt Violet and the color is even nicer in person. It looks premium without being too flashy. The biggest thing for me is how smooth everything feels. Apps open quickly, the screen is beautiful and bright, and I can jump between different things without the phone slowing down. I travel a lot for work, so battery life is a BIG deal for me, and so far it has held up really well throughout my day. The camera has also surprised me, especially when taking pictures while traveling or in lower lighting. I also really like the size of the S26+. It gives me the bigger screen I wanted without feeling ridiculously huge in my hand or pocket. I bought mine unlocked from Best Buy, and getting everything transferred and set up was pretty painless. So far I really don’t have much to complain about. It’s fast, looks great, takes great pictures, and most importantly I’m not constantly looking for a charger. Definitely happy with my purchase and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a premium Android without going all the way up to the largest model.

    I am an avid hiker and use the camera daily, the pictures are amazing, easy to edit if needed. The speed in which the phone works is a plus plus. Battery life while in the mountains is exceptional . I am extremely happy I made this purchase.

    AT&T is my cell phone provider. When it was obvious my S9 needed to be replaced, I started shopping and decided the S26+ was what I wanted. Checking prices between AT&T and Best Buy (BB) it was obvious BB was $200+ cheaper overall. AT&T offers interest free financing if that is important. But, Best Buy does too, if you become a member and get their credit card with Chase, so I joined both. Being a member and using the credit card you also receive 10% cash credit to your account on all purchases that can be used for future purchases. Best Buy offers protection Plan that wasn't as good as AT&T but much cheaper. The $200+ savings on base price, the option of free financing and the 10% credit (another $130) is why at I bought mine at Best Buy.

    The camera is fantastic, some of the AI features are a lot of fun to play around with. My dog passed away and I was able to create a beautiful album of him, just in the camera/photo app. The sound quality is great. Im still getting used to a new phone but so far I haven't had anything to complain about. Its a good phone.
