    I recently bought a pair of new Samsung Galaxy A36 phones to replace an A16 and A32 which were several years old but still plugging along. My, what a difference! I'm very pleased with my purchase. The OS and processing speed on the A36 is lightning quick. I'm able to run everything I need and want with ease so far. Transferring data over was fairly simple, and I'm pleased with the extended storage space despite not having a mount for an additional SD card. This was a great buy for the price and product quality.

    I use this phone more than 1 year. It working perfectly. It provides a same battery battery as new. I recommend this phone if you can compromise with camera quality otherwise it's a better choice because it has better display and battery backup.

    If you want a great phone that works perfectly and is intuitive in its design and software, this is it. I do only use it as a communication device and not a pocket computer. VERY HAPPY!!!

    The phone works seamlessly and is quick. I dont change phones often (had a S10 before this and a S4 before the S10) so it takes a lot for me to switch and be 100% satisfied. Hoping this lasts me just as long as the last two phones! The interface is user friendly and I like that it is not bulky.

    Phone performs and does everything I need. It is best geared for people who do basic calling and texting on their phone. Camera quality is good, just what I need. It is a great mid-tier phone. The battery also lasts all day. There is not much to improve on this model. It even comes in great color options.

    The positive: Nice and large screen. Great display and ample brightness BUT could use an extra 20-300 nits. Decent camera if the lighting is right. Nice color of the device (Awesome Lime). The Negative: Way too slippery and a case makes this phone even bulkier and harder to hold with one hand. The fingerprint reader is as bad as the one on the A35. You must sometimes press it 3-4 times or hold your finger in place for several seconds. The A25 had a better side fingerprint reader than this under screen one. The Snapdragon 6 gen 3 is not so snappy. Call quality is mediocre. The battery just barely makes it through the day with medium usage.
