    As a longtime Samsung Note user trading up from an S25 Ultra, overall the feel and use is very similar. I like knowing I have the latest, fastest, best connecting chips and antennas. This phone has not disappointed. I have no issues with the screen in bright or dim light. I am happy esp. with the ability to turn on and off the digital adjustments to photos (i.e., HD, AE, etc.) Buying through BestBuy and trading in my older phone made the purchase easy and affordable!

    My daughter was staunch Iphone. She admitted there was no real update for years. I got her this or her birthday. It wasn't a big gameble. If she didn't like it, i could replace my Galaxy S22 Ultra which I still use today. But she loves it especially the camera. She says she wish she mad the switch a while ago.
