Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased this phone from BB. It has only been a couple of days but so far I like the phone a lot. My last phone was a MO TO that I had for almost 5 years. It was slowing down and no updates since Android 11. I like the idea that this phone will get updates for 5 years. I'd give it five stars with the following exceptions... It only comes with a cord and no plug. The on off switch on the side has a fingerprint reader on it and it takes some to get used to using. The phone is quite thin and I have big hands. That makes it difficult to hold. I just ordered a case - hopefully that resolves my issue. The other thing that is a little annoying is that it is very symmetrical which means when you pick it up you cannot tell if you are holding it screen side up or down. I have to look at the phone to be sure I'm holding it right to hit the finger print sensor. Another issue I hope goes away with the case. I'll update after getting the case. Some complained about speed. I have no issues there but I am not a gamer.

This phone has been an excellent purchase! The display is bright and vibrant, making it great for watching videos and gaming. The battery life lasts all day, even with heavy usage. Performance is smooth, and apps run without lag. The camera takes sharp and detailed photos, especially in good lighting. Overall, it’s a fantastic phone for the price, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for a budget-friendly yet powerful device!

Its got great storage, it's fast not sluggish like some phones and has great features. My mom loves it and she said its easy for her to use

This phone is a great choice for anyone looking for a reliable device at a budget-friendly price. The display quality is sharp and vibrant, performance is smooth with no lag in daily use, and the battery easily lasts through a full day. The camera also takes surprisingly clear pictures for the price. Overall, an excellent value for money and highly recommended for everyday use.

I was looking for a backup and didnt want anything too expensive. I’ve had Samsung Galaxy Notes before and liked a lot of their features. Overall build quality is nice. I wasn’t expecting high performance based on the ram and price. It functions great for handling only a couple apps at a time. Battery life is awesome. Overall i would highly recommend.

I like the Samsung A16 phone, the camera is great and the battery life is good. The only issue is the phone gets too hot when charging and the screen refresh rate is slow

This is an incredibly good phone for the price. I decided to go back to android from my iphone se 3rd gen, and this was a great choice. The A16 has a great screen, higher resolution, faster refresh rate, and better battery life. The performance may be a bit less snappy, but it's certainly a solid phone for emails, browsing and videos. For $200 this phone is an absolute gem, even moreso on sale for $175.

I've had for 1 month almost. So far I am enjoying it, especially the battery life and screen. If I have a few apps open at once it might start to lag, only having 4 gb of ram, so I try to close out apps frequently. Just have to keep expectations in check, this is a >$200 phone when on sale.

Who says you need an iPhone? This phone is great for the everyday tasks. Decent battery life, great screen for the price and a big screen. Some limitations and lack of speed but if you dont care about having the very ultimate this will do just fine.

I'm pleasantly surprised with how good of a phone this is despite it being one of the least expensive options at best buy. It's sturdy, fast, the camera is great and I haven't had any issues or little things that are annoying about it like I've had happen with other phones that cost more. Both my teens that are haters of android like it too and said they would choose this phone over there usual iPhones that are starting to have problems. If your debating on getting this phone but skeptical on the quality because the price is low, it's a good phone. I have dropped it multiple times already and even accidentally ran it over with my bike (I'm not light) and it's some how not damaged at all I bought the cheapest phone case best buy had and it is holding up really well too.

The Samsung Galaxy A16 5G is a budget-friendly smartphone with a 6.7-inch AMOLED display, smooth performance for everyday tasks, and a long-lasting 5,000mAh battery. It has a 50MP main camera that takes decent photos in good lighting but struggles in low light. While it’s not ideal for heavy gaming, it offers six years of software updates, making it a great long-term option for casual users. If you need a reliable, affordable phone with 5G support, this is a solid choice.

there are certain things I miss about my old phone that the new one does not do, like having to press ok after typing in your pin number... Did not have to do that before. It send messages to my email instead of where it is supposed to go. but other than that it is a good phone. Nice screen and pictures, lots of GB room. Good for my purposes

Phone is slick and works well for the price. The features and ease of use was something I wasn't expecting.

With blazing 5G speed, a vibrant display, reliable battery life, and a stylish design, the Galaxy A16 5G delivers premium features at a budget-friendly price.

If you’re looking for a budget-friendly unlocked 5G smartphone with solid fundamentals — large AMOLED screen, good battery, from a trusted brand with long-term support — then the Galaxy A16 5G (128 GB version) is a very good pick. It strikes a strong value.

Very easy to use, a perfect cell phone for the person who is not extremely cell-phone focused, but is wanting to use it for emergency or piece-of-mind contact. Quality with all the features necessary to make it a good choice. Has internet connectivity. Great alternative to other high-priced cell phones out there. Highly recommend this phone and would buy again.

Camera is very good, battery life is great, overall a great phone

Pretty average phone. Kinda big for one-handed use but that's okay. I like the long battery life compared to my iPhone 6s. The cameras leave something to be desired but they are not as bad as they could be on an Android. Aesthetically: the big chin and camera notch look dumb. Functionally: not sure why the headphone jack is missing and they only put one speaker in this. Could've easily made this phone the flagship of budget phones in my opinion.

The Galaxy A15 5G works great for everyday use. Battery lasts all day, screen is clear and it's fast enough for basic apps. Great value!

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
