[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgrade to this model specifically for Galaxy AI, and I couldn't be happier. From the screen, to just the overall feel of the device. Everything works just how I want it. I have the device tuned to meet all my needs throughout the day.

Errorunknown . 1 day ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Glass on glass , makes it feel great in your hand, which most people would probably be not the main point to start a review on. But to me if the glove doesn't fit then, we'll you know. It's everything to love about Samsung phones without having to sell a kidney to afford. It's fast and sleek and honestly performs just as well as my flip6 .
