Hi there Meeshxo,
Thank you for sharing your experience with your Galaxy A16 5G. It’s great to see you've found a method to keep your device running smoothly. While clearing the cache helps, have you considered using the Device care feature? It offers a quick overview of your battery, storage, and RAM, and can automatically optimize your phone or tablet for better performance. To use it, go to Settings, swipe to and tap Device care, then tap Optimize now followed by Done. This simple step can significantly boost your device’s performance. For more tips on maintaining your device, check out the article linked below. Although Galaxy AI is not yet fully available on the Galaxy A16 5G, it still offers many useful features to enhance your experience. Thank you for your review and for choosing Samsung as your preferred brand!

This phone freezes and locks up all the time.
on October 10, 2025
Posted by: Love2color
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used my phone mostly for watching TV apps. It will freeze at least 4 times a week. Picture picture viewing does run smoothly at all it skips and you can't hear the show. I also have 2 apps that I play and I watch the show while I play on my app. You can't hear half of it and then it completely freezes up and it can take up to an hour just for the phone to restart. I'm very sad that this phone does this its my first Samsung Galaxy phone I've ever had and I'm afraid its going to be my last. I'm sorry I truly hoped it would have been a better phone.
