Sleek, Fast & Seriously Impressive
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I brought the S26 a month ago and I'm so glad I did - it’s been an amazing upgrade. The camera quality is outstanding — photos come out sharp, vibrant, and professional-looking with very little effort. The speed and performance are super smooth, whether I’m multitasking, using apps, or just browsing day-to-day.
I also love how it supports productivity — everything feels efficient and easy to manage, which makes a big difference when you’re on the go. And the colour? Absolutely beautiful — sleek, modern, and exactly what I was hoping for.
Overall, I’m really impressed. Samsung has definitely delivered a premium experience with this one.

An upgraded handset and that's pretty much it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Upgraded from an S23. Somewhat better functionality, currently searching for how to disable the side bars and wallet swipe features, handy if they're things you would use frequently but that aspect is not something that appeals to me personally. Faster load times for some apps, I've had a few connectivity issues with third party devices needing to be resynced to handset with every use, such as Logitech headphones. It could be a me problem, I'm not always savvy enough troubleshooting those types of problems and sometimes I just cannot be a*sed.
Does what I need it to other than that. Good 9/10.

Does everything (& more) that it says on the box!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been a longtime fan of the Samsung Galaxy phones, so I may be a tad bias, but with the S26, Samsung has won me over yet again.
I upgraded from an S23 only a few weeks ago & haven't looked back.
The transfer of data from my old phone went perfectly smoothly & (apart from one or two apps no longer being support on the S26) it was like my old phone just did a super-dooper upgrade overnight & now I'm rockin' an S26 like all the cool kids!
If you're up for a new phone or in need of an upgrade / update, it's onwards & upwards with the S26... you won't be sorry!

S26 Amazing phone
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently upgraded to the Galaxy S26 and the first thing I noticed was the display. The 6.3-inch screen is the perfect size—large enough for watching videos but still comfortable to hold. The brightness is incredible, even in direct sunlight. Performance is snappy thanks to the new Snapdragon chip; I haven't seen a hint of lag even with multiple apps open. The camera takes very natural, sharp photos, and the battery easily gets me through a full day of use. If you’re coming from an older model like the S21 or S22, this is a massive leap forward.

Overall, not happy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded from the S25 and overall, this is not a great upgrade. I have not noticed any improvements to performance, battery life, or the camera quality. Having a slightly larger display is nice. The worst part is that the camera bump is significantly larger than the S25 and the Samsung case I bought accentuates this so that the phone can no longer lie flat on a surface without massively wobbling. Also, the Exynos processor has already caused me compatibility issues in that I can't use the latest AI tools from Google Research.

A worthy upgrade
[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

Exactly what it should be
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded to the S26 from the S21+ and have absolutely zero regrets.
Initially I was concerned about the screen size, although those worries were put to bed. It has all the features and smoothness that you expect from a modern phone but is unexpectedly lightweight compared to previous models and competitors.
This phone has a great battery life that lasts a full day of work/scrolling/playing music/content capturing and has features that I didn't expect but have found to be game changers, such as the noise filtering.

Galaxy S26 512Gb
[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.
