Remarkable Value
on December 6, 2025
Posted by: Tjack74
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy A series phones are a remarkable value. The A 16 functions flawlessly as a phone and connects to WIFI effortlessly. I t is fast enough to run most applications, with the only exception being high end games. Samsung's Gemini AI Agent ( Galaxy AI ) runs very well on it and is a massive value adder. The screen and camera are very good although certainly not the equal of much more expensive models. Nonetheless, taking and viewing photos is quite enjoyable. I highly recommend the Galaxy A16 to anyone looking for high value for their money.

The phone software is very confusing.
on December 6, 2025
Posted by: StStephen
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't like all of the new features and I have no interest in AI
Don't like the Google text features. This is the most horrible phone I have ever had.

Christmas gift
on December 6, 2025
Posted by: Qballaz
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was supposed to be a Christmas gift for my daughter. However her old phone not a Samsung device by the waythe battery had swelled up on it and j didn't want it to cause fire . So she got this as an early Christmas present. The app in the Samsung phone made the transmission so easy and simple . The phone works great and the display and speed of the phone was far better then I expected. Such a great option for entry level Samsung. Couldn't be happier with the purchase

I love galaxies but this is the worst one yet
on December 6, 2025
Posted by: Loveofgalaxies
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this device for appointments, social media, photography and music. The system keeps saying it is shutting down and I have to restart my phone everyday to get faster speed. I love galaxies but this one has been nothing but problems since I bought it. Going to buy a new one due to lack of performance.
