Top reviews from the United States
- Never Too Old To LearnJust a great phoneI needed a new phone, but all the new phones cost about $1000, and I didn't want to spend that. I am in my mid-70's and I am on my phone a lot, for calls, texts, and YouTube videos. The main phones now are Motorola, Samsung, and iPhone. I am used to Android and so there is that. This phone is fabulous, I am so happy with it. I got same-day delivery from Amazon. The phone was 70% charged, so I could start right away. It directed me to copy everything from my old phone to this new phone, and I was able to do it easily. I drove over to my new Provider, and they quickly changed over the SIM card for me. This Galaxy A16 phone is perfect! Light and comfortable to hold and use, superior camera quality, huge memory capacity, and great sound for calls and music. And the price is right! I love my new phone.
- Doug CruickshankExcellent Value - Well Made - Good FunctionalitySame price as my Moto 5 G from 5 years ago! But with all the improvements that you would expect from tech advances.
It's about the same weight and size but the case is thinner which is nice.
Predictive text handling is a bit more capricious and sometimes obtuse, but keyboard itself is more accurate. Swings and roundabouts.
Overall, very good phone and incredible value for money. Paying $170 vs $1000 seems very sensible to me! - Andrew SA little sluggish with some applications, but an overall good phone for the price point.I would say that the phone is okay, so far. The charging speed is about what you would expect and the touch screen is really responsive. If you're wondering if it runs hot in a lot of different situations, I can tell you that it does. It also mentioned having 4 GB of ram, while technically true, this isn't fully accurate. It has 2 GB of physical ram and 2GB of vertial ram and that makes a huge difference in its' performance.
This is particularly evident when you open the camera app. For comaprison, an S3 that I used way back in the day did not lag when going in and out of the camera application, but this phone does. Of course, this is to be expected, given the amount of ram that it has, but you would think that it would be better oprimized as a result. It is truly unlocked, just as it says. All I had to do was pop in my sim card from Verizon and I was up and running again. No phone call, no visiting the website, no putting in a code. So, I image it would work the same for every carrier.
Now lets talk about the finger print reader, in some ways I like where it is positioned, in other ways I don't. We all tend to choose a finger or a finger print reader that feels confortable to use and not combersome. There are a ton of options to achieve this when the finger print reader is on the bottom bezel or on the phone screen itself, not so much when its' the same button as your power button. This causes you to do accidental unlocks at times if you aren't careful. but I believe that it will just take some getting used to.
The call quality is actually really good and the camera isn't to bad. Don't expect any Earth shattering detail like you would get from the S20 or something similar. The stabalizers leaves a lot to be desired, but the video quality is actually pretty impressive for the price point. The flashlight on the other hand is a different story. It's not really useful in tight spaces or when you need light in a specific direction. It will do the job in a pinch, but don't expect it to do what other phones can in that department.
The battery life seems to be good and pretty close to what Samsung claims. Set your battery to only charge to eighty percent and don't use super fast charging when you can to improve the life of your battery overtime. According to Samsung this phone is slated to get years of security updates and OS updates, which is why i purchased it. It didn't need to be fancy, as its' mostly used for phone calls and text, but you'll get more out of it than that to be sure.
On to the screen. It is honestly impressive and has done well in every lighting condition that I have subjected it to. It does scratch easy, so make sure you get a screen protector as soon as possible to prevent that from happening.
Some good points are the fact that the charging port is a bit receeded, a good choice by Samsung that saves you from having to clean stray lint out of it all the time. The phone itself does run off of the new fleet of Samsung chargers, so if you have an old Samsung product and charger from the last couple years, you'll be good to go.
Overall it does the job and runs fairly well for the price point. It really needs at least four gigs of virtual memory to help it along, but you can't expect much more at the price point. It will be a reliable phone that will do what you need it to and a bit more. It has a better screen than most phones at this price point and it has the Samsung security and OS updates that run for years that other manufactures don't offer. - Dominick CritelliGREAT Value; Works Well; DependableThis phone certainly is an outstanding value. Today, companies hype you with devices for well over $1,000.00. I have been buying inexpensive phones like this for YEARS, and have saved great deals of money while staying in my budget and enjoying the full benefits of modern mobile phones. The display and sound quality are excellent; it is durable and withstands daily wear (that is, with the usual added benefits of an appropriate case and/or holster); it captures the signals from the cellular network very well and has great connectivity; accessories such as screen protectors, USB C cables, and power adapters are very plentiful (one thing that would cause me to immediately reject considering a phone is when the manufacturer designs their devices to require proprietary accessories), the charging time is very good; and, again, it is an overall, excellent value. Definitely deserving of 5-Stars.
- Rick CollinsHigh Quality Midrange CellphoneMy wife picked this one out and she is super happy with it. She says it's light years ahead of her old cellphone. Build quality is great, easy to use and all aspects are functional and the screen images are terrific.
