Great price and quality phone! My Dad who is 77 was able to upgrade finally after over 15 years!

I’m literally crying. My parents got me the Samsung A16 thinking they were doing something, but this phone is a straight-up disaster. If you actually use your phone for more than just checking the weather, DO NOT GET THIS. The Lag is Insane: I try to open TikTok and the whole screen just freezes for like 5 seconds. By the time the video loads, the trend is probably already over. Scrolling is so glitchy it makes my eyes hurt.Multitasking is a Joke: If I’m on a video call and try to open Instagram, the phone starts heating up like a space heater and then just crashes both apps. 4GB of RAM in 2025? Samsung, be for real right nowThe "Wait" Screen: I spend half my life looking at loading circles. Even the keyboard takes a second to pop up sometimes. I literally have to type slow so the phone can keep up with me.

I really like my new phone. The response is really fast, and the letter and number fonts are large enough that I do not strike more than one character at a time.

if all you need is a cheap little phone, and you do not particularly care about the Mobile operating system, this is a decent little phone. However, it’s lack of galaxy features such as Bixby makes it unworthy of the Galaxy name.
