I'm a samsung lifer

Posted by: ROSIEpoisee
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I would struggle to survive the current adult world without a samsung phone. I've been spoiled by these little features I didn't realize I needed til I had them like now brief summarizing literally everything I need to know from my phone at a glance. Or converting my do list into actions seamlessly spread between apps. I'm a lifer now. I can't life without this thing. I wont.

Worst phone i have had!
on June 7, 2025
Posted by: junk
from colorado
Expertise:Intermediate
I am very frustrated with this phone. I cannot drive more than 15 minutes before the phone goes into Dark mode because it gets too hot.
It asks for password verification at least daily - usually when I am driving.
Touch scree frequently seems to freeze up.
Unable to keep screen bright enough for me to use outside.

Hello There,
Thank you for reaching out and sharing your experience with your Galaxy A16 5G. When you place your phone in direct sunlight while driving, it’s normal for it to warm up, and the screen may dim to protect the battery. Galaxy phones feature adjustable displays, enabling you to adjust the brightness according to your environment. If you find that your screen dims more frequently than you’d like, there are some helpful steps you can take. We recommend checking out the online resource titled “Stop the screen brightness from dimming on your Galaxy phone or tablet.”
Additionally, ensuring that your device’s software is up to date can significantly enhance its performance. To check for updates, swipe down from the top right corner of the screen using two fingers and tap the Settings icon. Then, navigate to Software Update or System Updates, as the terminology might vary between models. Tap on Download and Install, Check for system updates, or Check for software updates, depending on your carrier. If an update is available, it should begin downloading automatically, although you may need to select ‘Download now’ on some devices. For more details on maintaining your phone’s software, you can refer to “How to update your Galaxy phone or tablet.”
If you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to contact our Samsung Support Team. We are always here to assist you. Thank you for choosing Samsung!
