Works like the expensive brands. Easy to set up and good quality visuals.

I am very pleased at the decision I made to upgrade to this phone. It gives me way more data storage than my previous phone and the visibility of the numbers and material to be read is much more clearer.

The display is great. I love the battery life and the the cameras are decent. It's a good bargain, especially with 6 years of update. I totally recommend it.

I wanted to take a cheaper phone on vacation rather than my regular phone. Best Buy had this bad boy on special so I got me one. Yes the phone is not as snappy as my more expensive phone, but for a whole lot less, I can live with it. The Camera is good, the screen is clear and bright enough, Battery life has been great. All in all for the price I paid, i'd say I got great value for money.

Samsung - Galaxy A16 5G 128GB (Unlocked) - Blue Black
The product is good, considering the price. Great photos and ease of use. The technician, Ricky, who transferred the data from the old smartphone to this new one was excellent

I am very happy with my new Samsung Galaxy A16 phone! It has been extremely easy for me to add apps and delete those I didn't want, and it does everything I need and more! I am still exploring all the many ways to use it, and look forward to learning to use the camera and the many other ways I can use it to enhance my cell phone experience. I have been very pleased with the service department at Best Buy when I have brought in my laptop also and plan to refer all my friends whenever they are looking for a phone or laptop.

Bought the Galaxy A16 5G, 128GB. Solid phone for the price. Smooth performance, great battery lasts all day, and love the six-year update promise. Camera's decent in daylight, but night shots and gaming could be better due to limited RAM. Overall, great budget buy!

I was excited to upgrade to the Samsung A16, expecting at least a modest improvement over my previous Moto G 2023, but unfortunately, this phone's speed has been a disappointment. The A16 constantly lags and gets stuck, making even basic tasks frustrating. Scrolling through apps, switching between screens, and even typing can feel sluggish.
What’s most surprising is that despite being two years newer, the A16 actually feels slower than my old Moto G. Looking at Geekbench scores, my A16 has a single-core score of 853 and a multi-core score of 1824, compared to my Moto G 2023’s 745 and 1779, respectively. On paper, the A16 should at least match my old phone’s performance, but in real-world usage, the A16 feels noticeably slower which makes it hard to use comfortably.
Aside from the underwhelming speed, the phone does have a decent screen and camera for the price, but I simply can’t recommend it due to the poor performance. I understand that a budget phone isn’t going to be a powerhouse, but I at least expected it to perform as well as my old Moto G. Sadly, that’s not the case.

Efficient, great value for the money paid. Works just as well as my very pricy samsung galaxy s24. Wondering why I'm paying so much for other phones. This phone does great and originally bought one for travel(unlocked) but now I've bought another to gift as well. Camera and screen are comparable to my regular phone, although i will say that after restarting or first powering onn it does take about 10 seconds of lag, after which it runs just smooth. I dont mind those 10 seconds, I usually dont fully power off the phone anyhow.
Pictures and videos are wonderful as well considering the price paid.
