It'll only take a minute, you'll help people decide.
Let me sum it up for you
Kimovil users consider this a balanced mid-range phone, highlighting its accessible price and design. However, there's widespread agreement on excessive overheating, especially with the Exynos 1280 processor. They positively value the extensive software updates and IP67 protection.
Latest reviews added
- not scratch resistant, I once dropped it, I was sitting near the floor, it fell and finally scratches appeared
In my opinion, the design is lacking, with the waterdrop not making it look pleasing to the eye. I like the camera, at this price level, it seems like that's the standard for a camera.
The price is also not much different from the A37 or A36, it's better to just buy that if you have the budget.Pros- good camera
- many features
Cons- waterdrop

View answers - Nice budget phone, just nice and enough for the A series of Samsung phones. We have some better choice in this price.
With the A series of Samsung phones, the A26 has enough performance for 2025.
With 7,000,000 VND, we can find some better options in this price range.
Next, it sometimes gets warm when I scroll through TikTok.
The Exynos chip also sometimes overheats even when I’m not doing anything.Pros- 120hz
- Super Amoled
- Nice battery ( maybe )
- 600 000 antutu for a budget phone ? enough
- ip67, just enough for normal and everyday use
- the oneui7, nice OS, A26 can run smooth
Cons- only 50mp for 1x camera
- run out of battery after 1 day
- waterdrop notch
- If you have more money, just go for the A36

View answers - AutoFor 25,000 rubles, this is a TERRIBLE choice for the money. It's terribly slow and gets incredibly hot.
I got it for my birthday, I wish they hadn't. It's a HORRIBLE phone, it gets incredibly hot, it burns your hands, and its processor just can't handle 120Hz. It's also fragile, the plastic frame was badly dented from falling on laminate flooring, and the back cover is also in pieces. The screen bezels look like they're from 2019. And after One UI 8, it started working twice as bad, that's for sure!! A terrible phone, I don't recommend it to anyone.
Pros- fast charging
- Photos and videos of the street during the day
Cons- cooling
- camera in the evening
- sound
- screen calibration (colors are out of sync)
- screen frames
- strength
