This phone is great bought one for my wife and I. The camera is amazing and so far so good. Att prices for service are a little ridiculous so I am switching back to metro and they are easily unlocked. All in all the phone is great though. Lots of features.

Great 5.8-inch screen, fast speed, dual-curved design, terrific camera,
wireless charging and water resistance.
One generation behind Galaxy S!0 but very happy for the price of unlocked device.
Using with T-mobile. No problems found yet.

Some of the Samsung apps are pretty nice but the fact that you can't remove or even disable them ruins the experience. I prefer this over the Google Pixel for a few reasons (mainly, I'm just not a fan of Google's new designs, fonts, etc) but now I'm wishing I just ignored those personal preferences and just bought a Pixel. The Pixel has a better camera, no bloatware at all, and gets updates when they're available.
Also Bixby is useless.
Luckily, Android is highly customizable. There are ways to disable Samsung apps via command line on a computer. But I'd rather not have to deal with that. Samsung should just play fair.

I had to hurry and buy this before I went on vaca. I needed an upgrade on my camera and not carry an extra camera around. Really pleased with the phone overall. The battery lasts forever, and it's quick. I use pre-paid AT&T and it transferred easy.

I took advantage of Best Buy's Black Friday week sale and got a great price on this phone. I could have purchased two of these phones for one of Apple's flagship devices. Why people buy Apple products, I will never understand.
Anyway, I am very satisfied overall. The phone's battery seems to drain a bit quickly if using Skype video calling or using YouTube, for example, but perhaps that is standard nowadays. If doing less resource intensive task such as web surfing or standby mode, the battery seems ok.
My one major complaint is that I had to sideload ATT's video voice mail. In other words, I had to override the security protocols and download the app from someplace besides the Google's Play Store. I installed Norton's Antivirus (for free since I am an Xfinity customer) just to be safe. All seems okay as far as I can tell, but I wouldn't recommend doing this type of thing in general,. Unfortunately, Google Play does not offer the app that I wanted for unlocked phones.

No complaints. Fast, great camera, seems sturdy. Much cheaper than Apple.
buying a case for it is a pain. you need to buy he case and glass protector separately. I got an Otto plus the Otter-made glass. Pretty expensive but easy to install.

This phone is classic Samsung Galaxy. It has all of the features of the S10 that I need without the hefty price. It is an even better deal if you get the unlocked phone and add it to your account with the carrier of your choice.

There isn't much of a difference between my S7 and my S9. There are features on the camera that allow me to do different things but not to the point where I would waste money on it again if I had to choose to wait for the S10. I purchased the S9 because my S7 had horrible battery life and the operating system was so slow. The phone is much lighter and smaller than the S7. The unlock feature with my face is an interesting feature because there are times when I want to just check the time and my phone unlocks without me wanting it to. Also,the biometrics are on the back of the phone unlike the S7 where it was the home key, so that took a little bit getting used too. Again I stress that the camera isn't a significant upgrade from the S7, you could tell there was improvement but I again would wait for the S10 to come out. The Bixby button on the side is useful,I don't use it for much, it isn't as useful as one would think but the bottom doesn't get in the way.

I love my samsung galaxy 9, with all its glory and faults. 1st off, I love how the battery holds its charge throughout the day. I had an iPhone 6 before and it was not able to hold a charge for more than 4 to 5 hours. Also, I got a deal for this phone where Best Buy gave us 128 GB more storage and a wireless charger, in addition to the phone which makes me a very happy mama, since I take so many photos and videos. It is easy to use, awesome camera with ar emoji capabilities, and syncing it with Google is incredible. Some of the features I don't like is how sensitive the screen is and settings/applications can be so easily accessed if you're not careful (read: have curious kids). However, with it being waterproof and all, this is definitely one of the best phones I have ever had and am very happy with my purchase.

Finally upgraded from a phone I've had for the past 3-4 years. I made the switch from an iPhone and I love it. I thought it would be a hard transition, but it wasnt. Awesome camera and features. Pictures come out great.

Switched from iPhone 6S Plus and this phone is great. I would rather use iPhones because I have four years but I am really loving the layout and the speed. And the price is better than the iPhone. I recommended this product.

I chose this over the iPhone x. It has a better camera, it's got a wrap screen (so you can see messages arriving even when it's face down) and it costs hundreds of dollars less. I've had it for about 6 weeks now and I love it!

I bought this phone for my wife back in mid 2020, it has been great. With one of the best cameras, i have been able to take some of the best pictures so far. I would highly recommend this phone if you need a Samsung phone under 600.

Phone is about 1 month old. The purchase of this phone was a big upgrade for me. I had a $70 LG prior to this but needed something faster as I was just promoted to a management position.
Pros: Google Maps seems to work faster, so does the text message app. Nice speakers. Charges fast and long battery life.
Cons: Lately when I am doing something, the page or app I am on freezes and I have to hit the back button in order to use the keyboard/continue on the page; this happens several times a day. I have also been noticing the keyboard not fully appearing or disappearing. This phone comes with "Bixby", essentially a Siri, but it sucks and cannot understand me or my commands in any simple manner.
Overall recommend.

Great Phone. Camera is awesome. Easy to use and transfer all the info from my last galaxy. I just wish Samsung would come up with a shatter proof glass. My screens ALWAYS break.
