Current phone I'm using, it's my first time using a samsung galaxy again in many years (my last was the samsung galaxy s4, which was genuinely not a good phone for me), and I gotta say I am enjoying it so far. Only major gripe is the camera, even though its very heavy in pixels , zoomed in pictures even if slightly tend to look more like a painting than an actual picture. I got this for a heavily reduced price via trade-in. I'm not sure if I would've purchased this at its full price (about 500 USD on Samsung's website) whatsoever as you could arguably get better for that price range, but this phone is pretty solid.

I don't see moaners about nfc like there are in motorola one fusion+ comments. For Samsung its a big fail, for Motorola it's a compensation for good performance budget phone. So if nfc is so important to you here is better place for trash talk about it.

I recently purchased this phone to replace my Note 8 on Verizon's network. I have to say this phone is nice. It is faster than the Note (at least in the ways I use a phone). I am still adjusting to the in-screen fingerprint reader, and I do miss having that on the back of the phone. It was much easier to unlock on the back.
My only complaint is that I am unable to use the built-in FM radio. I used Nextradio on my Note 8 to listen to local stations without using data. I'm supposed to be able to do that on this phone, but I have yet to find an app that can access the radio. Nextradio's says it can't access the radio and that I need to contact my provider (Verizon) to ask them to give access. That was useless. Verizon doesn't really offer any support of this nature.
I have to say that the screen is very clear, and the Gorilla Glass 3 seems just as good as what was on the Note 8.
I do miss the wireless charging. I tried a plug-in adapter, but you have to get the phone positioned exactly on the charger to make it work. I will stick with the super-fast charger that came with the phone.
Overall, I am impressed with this upper mid-range phone. For the features and price, it is hard to beat.

This phone is the Verizon exclusive version that has the UW (ultra wideband) symbol attached to it since I can only conclude that Verizon has a different 5G network compared to other carriers like AT&T or T-mobile/Sprint.
