I'm still using s10e as my main phone. Bought it when it came out, changed the battery last year and it never failed or crashed with more then 3h sot everyday. No sdcard and the exynos to SD nonsense didn't allow me to update it yet.

@@ToTheHellfire024 ya, best screen revolution started from S8 after that all other phone started to come with nearly full screen with less and less buttons on screen, infact i have one S8 but display is (screen burned, image stays on screen forever) ..🔥✅
Using S7 Edge to watch this video. Beautiful phone ...
S10 is the top Galaxy S model for me. Peak Samsung flagship with expandable storage and a headphone jack.

Still unbelievable how the s10 almost had it all, the only thing that it lack in todays standards is the higher refresh rate. Great phone

Agree. S10e was my favorite
S6 at the last? And S5 at number 2?
My Samsung S2, yes S2, still turns on and works!

Mine died after two years and 3 battery changes.
S2 was phone ahead of its time. Best in generation hands down, and it is 2 places from bottom? S10 had 60hz while everyone pushed 90 or more and it's 3rd? S5? Arguably THE reason why people (including me) switched from Samsung is 2nd? Useless fp sensor, hideous design, plastic rails that deteriorated in first 2 months, most bloated Touchwiz to date etc. I understand subjective approach, but your criteria in the beginning of the video do not apply to the ranking results.
S10+ note , S7 plus, S21 & S22
S8 for me, was my first ever flagship phone and it looks absolutely beautiful with it's slim bezels whilst having no notch
S10 peak, the complete package. Note 9 the best note, had all there is to offer that year.(Not an s) S7 redemption from s5 and s6 series. Are my top 3
18:08 Mistake here: Position #6 is actually the S9. I didn't understand why you put the S8 in front of the S9, as the S9 is basically the same but with very small improvements.
Very poor list. Agree with the s7 being the top but s5 being number 2? really? It looked ugly, had the confusing microusb 3.1 port, had flaps and a swipe based fp sensor. It was so widely panned that samsung fired the designers and made drastic changes to the s6. S8 had the extreme edged screen that made it vulnerable to cracking from knocks to the side while s9 was a transitional device that brought nothing to the table. In terms of bringing something new and being iconic, it should have been 1-s7 2-s10 3-s24 4-s23 5-s3.
My first Galaxy was an S7 and man I definitely feel like choosing the S7 over the iPhone 7 at the time was a canon event for me.
My all time favourite samsung was the S10+ i think it was peak Samsung! And I've had a lot and i Mean A lot of samsung phones throughout the years 😅 starting from the S3,S4,S5,S8,S9,S10+,S20 Ultra, Note 20 Ultra, S21 Ultra, S22 Ultra, S23 Ultra,A54, A55, and last but. Not least S24 Ultra
The Galaxy S4 Google Play edition was the best ever.
You have the s6 as the worst one? That's low. That one needs to be higher.
Loved the S9+. Had it from launch up to beginning of this year actually.
I loved the galaxy s5 I’m glad you showed it some respect by putting that high up on the list were most people would have it lower
the s5 also has such amazing custom rom support.
The best phone designs were definitely the s10 & s21 ultra ❤️🔥
A lot of people spoke of Air View on S4/S5 as a bad thing but I absolutely loved that feature. I always used it for a quick glance to find the right photo, to quickly check some video, read more of a received notification or email without pressing on it, more info on the calendar. You can kind of do the same now with an S pen but I loved that sort of a power just with my fingers
This list seems kinda random
S5 also had it blaster and yes, the S7 was awesome. I had 3
Fun topic and video! Thanks for doing this instead of another Sonos headphones video like all the other tech channels. 😂
S2 should be in top 5, 1080p amoled was game changer

The resolution of the Galaxy S2 was not 1080P.
My top 3 would be the s20, s5, and s7, These phones we're so ahead of its time. galaxy s5 with a better battery, better features, with 3gb ram and first samsung phone with 1440p screen on LTE-A variant, water resistance, fingerprint scanner, live HDR, 4k video recording, and so on, a huge improvement over galaxy s4. Galaxy s7 edge, it basically fix and fill up the lacking specs of galaxy s6 and s5, A combination of both previous flagship. A better camera, a much better battery life, water resistance, a clean software compared to previous and so on. Galaxy s20, s20+, s20 ultra was a bit tie over galaxy s10 series, Galaxy s20 has a so much better battery life on 60hz compared to s10, a 120hz display, better camera specially the 4x periscope on ultra, better performance and thermal cause of sd865, and flatter display. While s10 series offer headphone jack, with similar features. But I choose s20 series cause of its 120hz display and better battery and of course that 4x periscope lens.
I bought my S10+ in Dec 2019. Got a Pixel 8a 2 days ago and I'm giving it back: For me, the One UI is way better. I'll stick with the S10+ for some time more and wait to see what the S25 line will bring next year. 😄
I still wish Samsung would bring back the headphone jack on their products.
Note 10 plus/s10 plus
S7 is peak, you can't convince me otherwise.

S10 is better
The S10 series but specifically the plus for me, it's the peak of Samsung S phones. They have never repeated a design like that. That I consider very nice and unique. Right know I rock my S24 Ultra as my daily phone, but still use my S10 plus as a second phone to play or watch content, sometimes even to record 4K videos. Still pretty good on 2024.
As a s6,s8,S10+,s20U,s21U,S22,and s23U owner I gotta admit my favorite was probably the S10+ definitely the best overall package
S7 was the start of locked bootloaders for the US market
Still using my S9. It does 100% of what I need.
S7 was my first Samsung phone, coming from Sony Z5. Followed an S10lite and S20FE5G
I almost thought you were going to miss out the S7(Edge - in my case). I've still hung on to this model as a backup although I think it's getting a bit long in the tooth now!
I love S24 ultra but I don't have money for buy it 😢😂
This style of ranking itself is flawed. You cannot compare something which was released 10 years ago with something which came yesterday. You need to know the fun and joy the phone gave during the time it was released. For ex. S6 was heavy, long and awful in terms of battery life. Whereas the S2 was just phenomenal when it was released.
S20 should be higher. First model with high refresh rate and retained SD card support. This is still a good phone in 2024.
I agreed with most, but I would have the S7 closer to the bottom. My top 3 would have to be S10, S5, and Galaxy S, the one which started it all.
With HTC and LG killed and with the Huawei losing the crown for not playing safe there was no other alternative so I moved to Samsung.S10 Plus and S24 line upa are the best Samsung ever made.S20 plus and S21 Plus witch I owned had mediocre cameras at least on exynios device.
This list aligns with mines for sure. I have to say, I also would put s7, s3 and s10 in my top 3, probably in that order. We just have to forget the whole s7 blowing up thing lol. Otherwise, it still managed to be the best of the bunch for sure in everything else lol.
Miss the old S serieswith an IR blaster.
Two weeks ago I left my S10+ in an Uber. I've been super sad every since🤦🏽♂️😩🤮 Best phone they ever made imo
S20
Oh i miss my Galaxy S5 and making teachers crazy with the ir blaster turning projectors on and off hahahaha sadly mine died in 2018 and not even turn on anymore, S5 had limitation of capacity but using microsd cards i was able to expand 16GB and after some time a 32/64gb one, My Galaxy S8 was the version that came with the stupid samsung exynos processor so it get way too hot, changed in march of 2024 for the Galaxy S23 Ultra, the only downside of Galaxy S23 Ultra is not having the headphone jack !
Loved my s4 mini 😊
I find it very disappointing that some cool features of the old hand gesture command-like versions to slide the screen have been lost, and we see some Chinese phones bringing it up again.
the s2 you showed was the d710 which I believe was only in the US? we received the i9100 in the UK and it was a legendary phone. my favourites are s10 and s21
I miss LG. I've had older S series and the hardware and software had serious issues. Would almost become paper weights around a year. Same for the Note series.
I loved my s4 so much at the time. But I also was in love with my s21 ultra. I only upgraded because I dropped it at the gym flat back with a case on and the camera cracked 😢😢😢😢😢
I love Android Google open ecosystem 💯
Galaxy S2 was the best for me, couldn't buy it though coz my dad had bought the S just two months before S2 came out. Was so fukkin envious of the S2! And in the Note series it was the Note 3 for me! Took me a while to give it up. That broad 16:9 screen was just awesome!!
I'm not getting medieval here, but the S Note 4 in its time was quite the device with features missing now. Finger scan for pulse and other metrics, replaceable battery, 3.5 mm audio jack, built in pen. Just not water resistant. Still have it for some practical little tasks.

ya it was a legendary phone indeed... still have mine, although only use it as flash light from time to time and mainly for alarm.
Note 4 and Note 10+ are my best Samsung phones ( bringing back sd card slot is a must as my 512 S22 Ultra is almost full, FK cloun-d Storage)

But then you wouldn't get a new phone
The S3 was a great phone, but the screen burn was horrifically bad even within the first year.
S20 remains the best Samsung phone for me, followed by S21.
S 10 Active
S6 Edge + S7 Edge
The S8 is way overrated, the S2 was way more groundbreaking for the time, even if it had a confusing lineup. The S2 was the first good Samsung flagship, it deserves more credit than it got here.
Why is the guy who was training Dr. Strange in the military now!?!?!? Did anyone else notice that?!?!?!?😮😮😮
S8 plus is the best
Note 7, change my mind.
This list is chaotic. Galaxy S5 in second place? 😂
I use samsung since the s4 then s6, s7 edge, s10plus and now a have s21ultra i think i do nice upgrades but a dont see like any reason at least for now to chance my phone. s22, s23, s24 is the exact same phone. I always make fun about applefans but samsung really learn from apple and they r here for the business hahaha i hope s25 take some real upgrades . For me, the worst samsung phones r the s5 literally built was garbage and that fingerprint was a really bad joke and the s20ultra looks so bad and the camera's problem was just sad. Really nice video 👍🏻
Not all Touchwiz is the same. US models tended to have lots of bloat compared to the international models which are basically bloat free.
I dont know who came up with this list but its trash lol. I had almost every phone on this list and I can say without a doubt the S10 Plus and the S24 Ultra are the best phones that Samsung has ever produced!!
any way to get phone calls and data for free?
These rankings make no sense, s4 and S6 were amazing. Anything after s21 was the same phone recycled and should be at the bottom
S2
S2 gang !!!
