    Very capable cellphone...lots of features, if you can figure out how to use them. Therein lies the difficulty. Included instructions are skimpy and not intuitive. Of course if you're a teenager, you'll have it mastered in 15 minutes or less.

    I dropped my Galaxy Flip phone while traveling out of state. The touch screen no longer functional. Thats no air flight, no Uber, no access to family. Best Buy helped me with this inexpensive smart phone. getting me out of a serious jam. It was functional and served me well!

    Good phone at a great price for average users that don’t require much processing power. It handles most of the tasks well, apps work without lag, battery life is good. Samsung has promised software update support for 5+ years. I’m happy with the purchase.

    Overall, the Galaxy A16 5G i buy it so helpful, reliable connectivity options, and a smooth phone for my work, though users who need heavy multitasking may experience some lag and faster battery drain.

    The best way I can describe the Samsung Galaxy A16 phone is to compare it to a base model car- it has a ton of features, but you can still tell it's not mid-level or high-end. For those young enough to have not ever had a "true" base model anything, What I mean is a base model car used to be just a car. No extras. No tech. Manual everything, including transmission and windows. No radio or a/c. Very basic. In cell phones, the equivalent would be a very basic old-school flip phone that basically only can be used for calls and texts. I think the Samsung Galaxy A16 is a great phone. It has a lot of features, so I wouldn't call it basic. But, I also know it's not on the same level as the high-end smart phones. So, if you're considering buying this phone, I encourage you to consider what you want and need to get out of your phone. If you're ok with not having every available feature, then you'll most likely like it. If you're wanting a great phone without the high price tag, then I recommend it for sure! Hope that helps!

    It's a good phone for the price. It does what it's suppose to do very well. I bought it for my son and he is exceedingly happy with it. He had a galaxy note9 previously and needed a replacement He said it's better than his old phone. He has no issues thus far. I am happy not having to hear any more complaining.

    This is a nicely put together phone and does what I need it to. The screen is clear and bright and the camera takes great pictures. My only complaint is battery life, it has not lasted as long as I thought it would. Have to charge late afternoon to make it through the day.
