Excellent Samsung phone.
I've had a Samsung galaxy phone in various different designations for over 15 years. They're durable with a good camera and a clear display. Battery life is fantastic with great performance and I know the operating system and how to configure my phone exactly as I like it very quickly now. Very happy with Samsung phones.
