SAMSUNG Galaxy A16 5G Dual SIM (128GB, 2025) 6.7" 90Hz AMOLED, Water Resistant, 8Core, 50MP Camera (Factory Unlocked International Model for GSM, Global) A166M/DS Blue Black

Awful. I thought this would be a better choice as the previous phone was not a Samsung & I missed having one. I have spent over a month battling this thing. It overheats all the time, so I have to turn it off & sit it on an ice pack, like it sprained its ankle or something. It constantly freezes. Lags in opening most apps. NOT that I even set up everything yet because of this frustrating detail. I've deleted a lot & use the browser where I can to not overload the system. I have to clear cache, etc consistently. But more annoyingly, it keeps resetting my settings! Every time I restart the phone, which is at least once a day, usually more because it gives me a warning that it is slow, I have to go back into Accessibility & change everything back to how I want it. Earlier this week, it cut off my doctor from leaving a message. It took 4 days for the message to show up! I have had near-perfect service with my new carrier for 13 months. I did not have these issues with my other Samsungs over the years or even the previous other brand. Never had this a decade ago with my favorite brand, which no longer makes phones. This appears to be an A16 issue, or this specific phone issue. I missed the return window due to some health issues delaying things & needing a phone at that time. Now I'm stuck with a phone that malfunctions & worse - a payment plan. Once I get back on track, I will be trying to see if it can be looked at. I didn't need a malfunctioning phone at the time I needed it the most.

Great inexpensive phone for my parents to use & break.

Its always glitching and I always have to hard reset everything,also Samsung apps are always trying to over take phone , super annoying having to shut them off but not able to use google apps I prefer but it takes amazing pic & videos and great to watch movies ! But Dont play games because phone freezes toooo much to enjoy them! Never the less , Calls are good , even international video calls are great so the phone is not total trash! I just have to figure out how to shut off some apps without messing phone up!

I've had the phone for about a week now. Before I bought I checked out all the specs on Best Buy. Only thing absent is the Barometer sensor. Maybe this a slightly different model. Curious that it came w/no connection for earphone jack. But somewhere I got the idea that earphones with a USB-C type connection would work. Got a couple of pair w/USB-C jacks from Dollar Tree and they work - plugged into the charging port. The user's manual I downloaded from Samsung site did not mention being water resistant, but maybe it is. You'll have to buy a protective case. Everything seems to work well. Android Auto now works on Bluetooth w/out being plugged into the car. Phone works with my US Mobile plan. Wish it had a built-in app lock so I could just lock specific apps w/out locking the phone. It does have a secure folder but haven't figured out how to make that work. The TCL I upgraded from had a real FM radio built in. That was nice but I couldn't find that in any current models.

Pretty good functioning phone for its price. Decent camera . Good screen quality. Enough storage. Battery life is good. Feels good on my hand. I do use it with cover and screen protector.

This phone is fine no problems very satisfactory

Goof quality phone at the best price

All in all, pretty painless. Dropped my old phone and while still working not worth the cost of Screen Repair either.I was not looking for a phone to be the center of my life, text, calls, a few Apps, a few other features like decent camera. This one fit the price range and being unlocked can be "portable" should want to change carriers.Didn't arrive overnight but fast enough. No doubt this was indeed a NEW Phone not a Refurb but I will add it seems it was manufactured for the South American Market as power on defaults were all Spanish.But easily switched to "Gringo" mode.The Dual SIM feature was not something I really wanted but for those of you interested, be aware you cannot run two SIMS and have an SD Ram Card as well. You can have the SD Ram if you run one SIM.Finally, came with many unwanted Apps(at least for me) pre-loaded. Easy enough to get rid of thee ones I didn't want and add those that I did.
