Ahoy Splishsplash,
Thank you for sharing your experience with your Galaxy A36 5G. While it comes equipped with many advanced features, the Galaxy AI may not be fully integrated with your model. However, any glitches or freezing can be improved. It can be frustrating when your Galaxy phone or tablet becomes unresponsive, but there’s good news—you can likely resolve this without needing to send it in for service.

The Quick Optimization feature can enhance your device's performance by pinpointing apps that consume excessive battery power. It also cleans up unnecessary items from memory, removes unwanted files, scans for malware, and terminates apps running in the background. Optimizing your phone is both quick and straightforward. Simply go to Settings, swipe to and tap Device care, then tap Optimize now, followed by Done.

For additional helpful tips, you can refer to the resource titled "Samsung phone or tablet freezes and crashes," which will be linked below. Thank you for reaching out. Please don't hesitate to contact a member of our Samsung Support Team for further assistance. We appreciate your loyalty as a Samsung customer.

Competition is way better than samsung at the same
on August 10, 2025
Posted by: Suhasc
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For the same A36 price, Competition is giving flagship tech. Samsung is supposed to be innovative & top of a table not at the bottom.

It’s one of the best value Android phones around, delivering an impressive mix of features for the price.

No comparison to the S class
on August 11, 2025
Posted by: BokehKai
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using Note 10 plus for several years. I love the capability of memory card slot for me to download pictures to my phone. It was flawless in anyway until I accidentally broken the screen. Samsung has stop supplying updates to the phone as well.
So I thought I would upgrade a new Samsung phone. While I have good experience with another brands around the same price range. I thought Samsung's phone must be much better. I made a fool out of myself.
A36 is a good phone if you want to call and receive calls. That is it. Everything else is not as smooth compared to my Note 10 plus or other brand I purchased around the same cost. The phone A36 is laggy, secure folder is much harder to use. Interface is no match to the S series.
My opinion is to stick to S series and stay away from this A series phone. I called in and wanted to return it but I pass the return day by few hours. I guess I am stuck with it for a while.
I may seek other alternatives since same price phone cannot deliver half of the performance compares to other brand phone. And btw, this phone has an awful trade in value. So again, stay away.

I love my phone!
on November 30, 2025
Posted by: Anonymous
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My device is just like having a computer. I play games on it, lots of games! I use my calculator a bunch too. I've even downloaded an app to use on the washers and dryers we have in our apartment building. Whenever I have a question that I can't seem to find the answer to, I just ask my Galaxy AI. It has the answer to everything. I have just started using the AI because at 67, I am sort of set in my ways and don't like change. But, I'm learning. I truly can't seem to put my phone down. I think I'm as bad as my grandchildren.
