I recently upgraded my prior phone which was a Galaxy A20 to this A16. I am not a tech expert but, the switch was really easy! I like the size of this phone slightly larger. This phone is very user friendly, the security features are great, no drag, I’m still playing around with some of the preloaded apps but I would definitely recommend to someone who needs a upgrade that is simple . This price was excellent, I absolutely refuse to pay the outrageous prices on cell phones. Fast shipping. Love the color, mine is a pearly white. The battery seems to last a long time, I have had the phone just a couple days and only charged it once. Overall the phone seems sturdy and is functioning great.

I bought this phone when I cracked the screen on my Galaxy S9 and realized that a replacement screen at $160 was only slightly less expensive than an entirely new phone.I initially looked at used phones in the Galaxy S series, but even these from a couple generations ago were not cheaper, and lacked some features.This phone is excellent. It has a large, bright screen. I'm a fan that it does not have rounded edges on the screen, which should help against breaking in the future. It has expandable storage, it can take a physical SIM card and an eSIM, and it's 5G capable.The only things I don't prefer about this phone is that the camera (despite the reported mega pixel count) seems like it over sharpens pictures to compensate for lower quality, the rumble/vibrate feels cheaper (and louder) than my previous phone, and there are a few occasions where it performs a bit sluggish or apps in the background have to restart due to limited memory.All in all, this phone has everything I wanted, and at a price where if another break occurs I could just as easily replace it than deal with a costly fix. If you need the best camera or extra do-dads (like built in AI, or extra buttons for virtual assistants that I find annoying) you may benefit from paying more, but if you're looking for a solid phone for browsing, streaming or messaging, this is it.

I'm pretty excited about this phone. It came in it's original packaging, a charger and sim ejector.It was so easy to transfer everything from my other phone, it feels and looks nice and smooth. I don't see any flaws. It connects to my wifi and data easily.Face I'd and Fingerprint unlock was easy to setup as well and it works like a charm.It came 50% charged, I don't know the battery life as of now but I'll update once I use the phone if anyone wants that.The only thing I was worried about is that when I was seeing it up it got hot, if I charge it with the case I bought it feels warm. I hope this isn't a recurring issue.Other than that, it feels like a good quality phone and it's not expensive at all.

Great value For the money a great phone ,updates for 5 years,the volume is louder then I expected,easy setup and transfer of data from old phone,sim and memory card in same slot,Takes great photos,replaces my A-14 which had taken quite a beating,not what I would call a "status phone" but easily does everything the average user would need.Does not come with a charger but most people have a drawer full of those anyway.

Fantastic Budget Phone. I won't even call it Budget Phone, because it performs great.Fast charging, screen is vibrant as with all Samsung's. Resolution is always better than the cheap knockoffs.Seriously why bother with those cheap knockoffs when you can get Samsung Quality?I even set up the e-Sim and was able to use Dual SIMs by using one e-Sim. Very lightweight, screen doesn't scratch and phone is very responsive and quick.

Some people say that the battery doesn’t last long, but really it all depends on whether you use your phone lot or not. Sometimes, the touch screen reacts slowly, but it’s smooth and all right. It’s light and easy to hold, and lastly, the compatibility works great! This phone is really worth the price and what I like the most about it is that when you install an app, installing in very fast. There are mostly no lags.

Switched from Moto G Stylus 2022 to Samsung 2025: Phone condition was new - very pretty little phone; I got the "grey" which was almost white. Very light weight compared to Moto Stylus, and size was slightly smaller, but noticeable. Switch from Moto was not as easy as I expected. The functionality is fine but icon driven - Moto Stylus had MANY more features that were SO convenient: (Gestures were great, especially to open the flashlight!! Can't tell you how often that came in handy!) Phone came unlocked so it made the transition to my carrier just fine in that regard. Only had it 2 days but the battery seems to be very good. Sound quality I would say is excellent. I don't like the icons, color schemes and there are WAY too many apps loaded in right off the bat - don't need all of them. Motorola knew how to build a phone. Don't know what all the hype for Samsung is about - it's a nice phone, but really not comparable to my Stylus 2022 which I was just now replacing due to the battery life dying (3 years later??? - Another great feature for Motorola!) We'll see how long this one lasts.

After my Google Pixel 6 Pro that stopped recognizing my AT&T SIM card after two years of use this replacement phone feels slightly sluggish at times, but overall it fits the bill. The speaker quality is not as good as 4x the price Pixel, but it is good enough, screen is almost as good, battery life is just as good, camera is not as good, but good enough for most uses. It has the NFC functionality allowing contactless paying and allows for storage expansion with SD card that Pixel didn't permit. So, all-in-all, a pretty good phone and probably won't make me feel as disappointed as with my $800 Pixel that quit working for no apparent reason after 2 years.
