Posted by: Megsxxthisiscooldude
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This phone is a good phone. I normally use it for normal everyday things, school, and to keep in contact with my family and friends. It has a decent battery, as long as you charge it good. The Galaxy AI is a fantastically fun thing it come in handy alot i love it! I would support telling my friends to get the same exact phone for a low cost price although the picture quality is Meh. I have had the phone for over 2 weeks now and i expect to keep it for awhile still and the next gen when it come out whenever it does.

Never had a Samsung before
on July 21, 2025
Posted by: SavageRoyalsMum
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love my A16 Galaxy AI features. ASSISTANT is so easy to use.
The length and width make it very comfortable to use. Great camera quality.
The only down side really is the battery life.
It doesn't like to stay charged for very long and updates constantly.
Nice change of pace though from my usual Moto. Still have my Moto just in case, but for now enjoying my Samsung.

The A16 of my life is all about the quality
on July 22, 2025
Posted by: thefactor
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my A16 like im LeBron James of the Samsung world . I most definitely ball out which I use the amazing variable zoom camera to snap quick reels and videos . I also write reports for my side hobby/Live streams out on YouTube and facebook "The Day In The life" . I've only got 1 con besides the many pro's and that is i wish there was a AUX plug so I could keep my device on charge mode and be able to not have to bypass and use Bluetooth due to lentancy problems cause majority of the time I use a hdmi/SD/USB , C Charge plug to stream multiple devices . But I choose to work with it cause I wouldn't want no other device ! Thank you for letting me submit my Review !
