||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this phone for my wife to replace her S8, it was a little bit to get used to with buttons being in different places but she loves it. Just the right amount of Tech to not overwhelm her but keep her curiously satisfied.

Great phone, great prices.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I stepped 'down' from a Note 9 to this phone, and I haven't been disappointed. Processor is fast, it handles multiple apps just fine, and the battery life is enough to be using it throughout the day and make it. I personally limit my battery to 85%, and so far I haven't felt like it's lost any. I do 'want' a fancier phone, but this one works plenty well enough for videos, games, calls & texts.

It is fast, secure and reliable. Voice calls are clear and the camera is very impressive. I am very pleased with this phone and can definitely recommend it. It also has been upgraded to the latest version of android and receives updates monthly. Good support from Samsung.

A great phone for the less tech savvy.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this phone as an upgrade for my husband's 6-year old Samsung J7. His old phone, while still working, couldn't access some recently upgraded apps. Other than the learning curve of getting used to a new phone - which is totally on my husband, not thr phone - it is a great phone. It has more power, memory, a better camera and is much faster than his old phone.

Good upgrade
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Coming from a galaxy s9+, this is a definite step up while not feeling too different. Great screen, though the camera hole punch takes some getting used to. Good battery life, snappy processor, good camera quality which a much improved front camera (32mp vs 8mp on the s9+). While the timing of the release is a bit strange with the s22 series around the corner, this is still a decent buy at the price. Feels like a flagship phone while paying a bit less than the full flagship price.

Great phone with flagship specs.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is such an awesome phone. The battery life is superb, even with 120hz on, the camera is awesome, the design is nice, and the chip seems to be fast. This phone was absolutely worth waiting for, it's a shame that it came out so late because of the chip shortage. Definitely recommend this phone, just don't buy it a full price. Wait for the sales that are guaranteed to come up.
