    Great inexpensive phone if you do not need all of the bells and whistles. Takes good photos and does everything I need it to do.

    A Solid Budget Upgrade from the S8

    Upgrading from the Galaxy S8 to the A16 5G feels like stepping into a more modern, no-frills zone. While it doesn’t have the premium glass-and-metal build of the S8, the A16 makes up for it with practical features and surprising value. f you’re moving from the S8 and want something inexpensive but capable, the A16 5G hits the sweet spot. It’s not flashy, but it’s reliable, efficient, and surprisingly future-proof. Most important it excepts MicroSD cards.

    Takes a lot to break this thing.....I would know. Just don't get it and if you do make sure you have geek squad protection as they get you a new one fast.

    This phone had so much potential, but it doesn't even screen record which was disappointing, other than that, I think everything else is pretty much up to par in comparison to other androids.

    It should be illegal to sell a phone that is this slow. Screen is fine memory is fine The processor is absolute garbage. Open up more than two apps in the thing just has a seizure. Android auto is even worse. Go ahead and upgrade to the next level a 36 or a 56 or do what I did and go ahead and get yourself up S25FE. I had no idea the difference in phones. This S25FE blows that A16 out of the water do not waste your money on this phone get a better one
