After owning my Galaxy S20 Ultra for almost five years, it finally gave out. I wanted to hold off until the S26 comes out, so I picked up the Galaxy A36 as a temporary “bridge phone.” I’ve had it for about five months now, and honestly, it’s been rough.
The phone constantly struggles to connect to both mobile data and Wi-Fi — sometimes it just drops service out of nowhere. It’s laggy when opening or switching between apps, and the fingerprint sensor is a complete gamble; half the time it doesn’t recognize any of my fingers at all. The camera quality is also way worse than I expected — grainy, slow to focus, and generally disappointing photos.
I get that I went from a flagship to a base-model phone, but for something that costs around $400, these issues shouldn’t be this bad. At this point, I’m just hoping it holds together for another seven months until I can finally upgrade to the S26.
If you’re reading reviews, take the five-star ones with a grain of salt — a lot of them are from people who’ve only had the phone for a week or two. Give it a few months and the issues really start to show.
