    Good price at Best Buy. I am getting used to this Galaxy A16, which has a clear screen and quick availability of apps. I still haven't figured out how to set different notification sounds for different apps. I don't even know if it is possible. It was a nice feature on my old Moto g power.

    I love my A16 5G Galaxy cell phone because it is very user friendly, which makes it fun to use. It has a lot of versatility and functions to use and adapt for other functions. An unlocked pho e is a good idea if you already have a wireless plan, but only need a new cell phone. You are paying for a phone you can afford and want. Storage on phone is plenty and more than others. The size of the phone is just right.

    Perfect device for my son who is 13 years old. I love Samsung cell phone. This one is realible, fast, and cost efficient. I coupled it with an otterbox case - super sturdy. Makes good economical sense. He does a lot of streaming of videos and music and texting, but not too much gaming on it.

    Samsung A16 a Great Phone

    I love the Samsung A16 phone. I am a new Samsung user, so I had to learn the difference between this phone and my old android phone. I also was looking for a phone that wouldn't "break the bank" so to speak. The price I paid was great. The Samsung A16 had a lot of the same features that a few other phones that I looked at and cost much more. Also, it was very important that I was able to keep my current cell phone service. And to my surprise, I was able to activate my phone wirelessly easily. I didn't need to install a new sim card. My cell phone company was able to walk me through the process, and it took less than 45 minutes.

    Very good cheap option for a phone, doesnt have a lot of ram but 128 gb of storage makes up for that. If a little laggy phone doesnt bother you definitely worth the purchase. For the price 5 stars

    While I know that a $1000 phone has more features, I would never use them. I use my phone to talk and to search the internet. Can't tell the difference between this phone or the $1000 phone for those needs. If it breaks, I can replace it for a little more than the price of a screen replacement on a more expensive phone. Keeps me from getting into lengthy contracts. This is my second one. The first one I lost but the price tag is such that it didn't concern me that much.

    I accidentally slammed my old phone in the car door so that I needed to buy a phone on the run. I do not need storage for photos or for files. This more than serves my needs without breaking the bank.
