I got this phone for the sole purpose of the ratings for the battery life I when I got the phone in the evening I charge for 7 hours to be sure that I'm not making a mess of it from the get-go however to my greatest disbelieve the battery of this phone did not last for 5 hours I'm forced to be charging this phone all over again. I'm going nuts this moment is not charging anymore I'll have to do a return. Please do not buy this phone if you are particular about your battery life on your phone.

great phone
I gave 4 stars for 'value for money' because this is more money than I have ever spent for a phone. Although I am very happy with the performance, and battery life is superb. I can charge it at night and listen to music for several hours at work and still have about 70% charge left. It is quite a handful with the case on it, but I need a big screen because of vision problems. The side buttons for volume were something to get used to. I like the fact that you can wake it up by double tapping the screen. Overall I think this phone will suit me for quite some time.

Great phone, works on Verizon 5G and LTE, no display issues
I think the reviewer "Adirondack D" who said it doesn't work with Verizon's network is talking about a different phone or maybe they bought a phone that was locked into a different carrier such as AT&T or T-Mobile. Because I got this phone discounted with a 2-year contract and have no problems getting onto Verizon's 5G and LTE networks. The phone has broad wireless compatibility, so after my contract is up, I plan to unlock it and take it with me to a different carrier if necessary.Also, currently the 2nd-highest rated review says the phone doesn't stay awake when charging, but that's not true as of December 2021, so maybe it was a software issue that Samsung already fixed. I've used Google Maps a lot, for example. No problems. You can also manually set it so the display doesn't turn off when charging.I love the super-long battery life.What I love less: the display is lower-res than high-end phones. But for this price point it's fine. The US version lacks the Macro camera, but the other cameras work fine, so it's not a big deal if you don't take lots of close-up shots (e.g., of bees on flowers).Overall I'm very satisfied.
