    Purchased replacement phone for elderly gentleman. His previous Samsung Galaxy phone was dropped in water and no longer usable. He was comfortable with this phone so decided to replace with the same phone he was familiar with! He is well pleased with the purchase.

    Perfection priced product for the applications I require. Seamless transition to Samsung from Moto G Power. Making the transaction even better is the great service offered by a superior Best Buy sales staff. Thank you BB!!

    This phone does not support two physical SIM cards: Only one physical SIM and the other is an eSIM. The bigger slot is for memory card. International versions support dual physical SIMs.

    This has a fairly good screen. It has a lot of Samsung bloat, more than my previous Samsung A13, and none of the Samsung apps can be disabled or uninstalled from the Android "apps" settings. Phone sizes in general keep getting bigger and this one jumped the shark, for me it's just too bulky to carry comfortably in my pocket and the awkward squared edges make it harder to handle. Performance isn't any better than my old phone, I often have to tap something twice to get it to respond. Fingerprint sensor works well so far. Old phone camera had PDAF, this one steps back to AF, pictures are good enough & I'm glad they kept the macro lens. No FM radio or headphone jack, but better water resistance if you drop it in the sanitary facility.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
