This cell phone is breaking the norm!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Samsung galaxy A36 does a perfect job for all things. Streaming videos/movies and streamlining the internet is never a problem with any aspect. Galaxy AI gives a new impression on how AI can make life that much easier. These galaxies give another option for individuals who search for that more budget conscious pricing, all while keeping the same great specs your used to with Galaxy phones.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Galaxy phones have been my only choice for years. They are easy to use and very durable. I have nearly driven over the phone the way I treat it...not a Crack! Ai has helped me quickly handle any troubleshooting i would normally bother my son with...ah Peace!

Adequate Smartphone
on September 26, 2025
Posted by: Teeboo
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Samsung Galaxy phone is very practical and affordable. It has some cool features such as great camera views and 5g pre-installed. The storage is decent as well. There are some things I'm concerned about like the facts that it lags so it's not ideal for gaming. Other features that I can't understand is when swipe down to review messages I have to swipe on the same side as the message icon (left side) if I try swiping on the right side it will show the settings and power button options...I don't understand why it does that. I haven't had the phone long and I'm still learning all the features. I will give an honest update when that happens. It's an ok phone so far.

Good enough
on September 27, 2025
Posted by: A36revi3w
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My New A36 is a little bulky compared to other models. The device is slower than it should be given the stats and specifications.
The refresh rate is 120 Htz and the brightness is excellent. It has 4G Ram with additional 6G in virtual memory.
The biometrics work exceptionally well and identity verification is quick and easy.
This is an excellent phone with a fast Meditek Processor, running the latest Version of Android.
The new photo editing software uses Galaxy AI technology and simple redundant tasks are simple to navigate and utilize.
The A36 is by all means an exceptional device but the stretch from A series to S series is still a wide gap.
