    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!

    Excellent value for money, considering that it uses few applications and that its use is really basic, it takes good photos and the battery lasts a long time.

    I am replacing the A13 5G. Best Buy had a real good deal that I couldn't pass up. I am still learning all the features. I am liking the A16. It has double the internal storage from my old A13. Which is a huge upgrade. It doesn't have the bells and whistles of higher level Samsung cellphones, but it does everything I need. I use it mainly for calls, texting, emails, apps and browsing. It gets the job done for my basic usage.

    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.

    I bought this Samsung Galaxy A16 5G 128GB unlocked phone for my father visiting from India, because the Redmi phone he carried from India didn't work here with T-Mobile prepaid sim. This phone worked perfectly no issues. I checked with Samsung reps if this is work in India and they confirmed it will work in India as well. Waiting to see if it will. This phone is dual sim. One is eSim and one physical sim. Quality is really good for the price. Super Amoled screen in this price range is impressive. It's splash proof only but you can't expect anything beyond at his price range.

    To fit my budget, I don't buy the most recent phones. This is a good phone, clearly not the fanciest, but a solid product that seems to meet my needs. Not happy that Gemini keeps trying to start on it, but I think I finally got that to stop.
