What reviewers say

Good

  • Thin and light
  • Large, lively screen
  • Six years of updates
  • Good selfies
  • Slim, light IP68 body
  • Bright HDR10+ AMOLED
  • Better battery life than before

Not so good

  • Performance trails rivals at the price
  • Fingerprint reader can be slow
  • Misses some S-series AI tools and DeX
  • Slow charging, no wireless charging
  • Expensive at launch
  • Big price jump over the A56
  • Only mid-range performance, weak for gaming
  • 91mobiles82/100Apr 2026

    A rounded phone that gets the basics right, aimed at buyers who value a premium-feeling Samsung with long updates more than raw speed.

  • GSMArena80/100Apr 2026

    Balanced and easy to recommend on its own merits, but overpriced at launch; becomes sensible only after a price cut.

  • TechRadar80/100Apr 2026

    Competent all-rounder without a standout feature; worth it mainly when discounted, not for photographers or heavy gamers.

  • Notebookcheck82/100Jul 2026

    A successful but cautious update with a strong build, faster chip and long support, let down by battery life that falls short of its predecessor.

    Common complaints

    • Some owners say the phone would not start normally after the One UI 9.0 update, showing an error screen; booting once into Safe Mode reportedly fixes it
