One does not simply walk through Barcelona — one strolls, carouses, even gallivants through the beautiful Catalan city that will play host to MWC 2026 in the coming days. I’ve got the Samsung Galaxy S26 to accompany me on my jaunts through Spain’s most famous coastal burg, and I’ve spent all morning using it to shoot photos of the towering Sagrada Familia, the stunning Sant Pau (an Art Nouveau former hospital) and more.
The Galaxy S26 is a handy little phone — or at least, it feels little despite its 6.3-inch screen being ever so slightly larger than its 6.2-inch predecessor, the Galaxy S25. I’m pretty sure that the phone’s 167-gram weight and 7.2mm thickness (same as the S25) is thin enough to make it easier to hold while taking photos than heftier devices, and I’m personally a fan of the flat sides. It’s nice to hold; now I’ve gotta find all of its software’s little quirks, including all its new AI features.
Stay tuned as I discover more ways that the newest top-tier Android handset will help me get through the year’s biggest phone show.
