[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] In every aspect of mobile phones I highly recommend a Samsung Galaxy. I have had several over the years and they are awesome. With the added AI intelligence there is no topping the performance and ease of use. Well done Samsung!!

Almost perfect

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great Super fast device downside is the bloatware that is pre installed. If only you could delete, uninstall or disable the bloatware it would be worth 5 ⭐'s

Hi ETennDude,
Thank you for sharing your experience. Many users find that the Galaxy A16 5G manages daily apps with a good balance of performance and reliability. Concerning pre-installed apps, in many cases, Samsung apps can be deleted if they are not essential; however, this can depend on your carrier, so it's best to check with them if you want to remove any unwanted apps. We value your feedback and thank you for choosing Samsung.
