- A: AnswerDon't know why ATT lists it as non compatible, because they sell it. I've been with ATT for 20 years, and my wife just bought the unlocked A25 5G yesterday from BBuy. She moved the SIM from her old ATT (Galaxy J727A) phone to the new A25 5G phone, and it activated just fine. No need to call If you buy unlocked rather than upgrading an ATT already in use phone, you save the $35 upgrade fee. Just swap the SIM from the older phone to the unlocked phone. You can use Savmsung's SmartSwitch app to move configurations and data from old to new phone.

Good phone for the price.
A good phone for the price. I was expecting a cheap phone for only $300 but was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the phone. It works well, has a decent battery life, and takes far better pictures than my old iPhone ever did.

Phantom Shutdown Issue with Samsung Galaxy A25 5G
I bought this Samsung Galaxy A25 5G 128GB in late April 2024. The phone worked great until about a week ago when it started randomly shutting down (not a reboot), even with the Auto Restart function disengaged in Device Care. Today, June 5, 2024, the phone shut down (not a reboot) numerous times. There is no button interference caused by the third party phone protector/case and all the software updates are current. Side Note: After booting up the phone, the time is also incorrect. The time starts at 0049 (24 hour clock time), then updates to the proper time after a few minutes. I just performed a search for the phantom shutdown issue and found similar complaints on the Samsung website, along with other sites with reviews concerning the Samsung A25 5G 128GB. I also checked my Best Buy account and it states "No longer returnable" - go figure!! I paid a lot of money for this phone. Before I purchased it, I read some reviews, which were all positive, yet here I am with a "No longer returnable," defective phone. I am hacked-off, to write the least. I had a gut feeling that I should continue being a loyal IPhone user, but I decided to buy this Samsung cell phone instead - bad idea, so far. If I take the fall with this phone, I will buy a variation of the domain name "Samsung," develop the website and let everyone on the planet know what happened to me - and it will be on or about the first page on the most commonly used search engine. I hope Best Buy or Samsung corrects this problem and fast.
