    Great clarity, light, and easy to navigate.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this phone as my old oppo was 7+ years old and it was time to update. I had heard glowing comments of the Samsung products and as I needed a phone to satisfy my needs with modern applications. I have only had it 10 days and am extremely satisfied and impressed with the ease to operate.

    Great features, Great Price

    If you're looking for a really good phone and you're on a budget, the A16 is for you. I love the camera quality, the split screen feature and the battery life is pretty good. I leave multiple apps open without it lagging. It's a really good buy. Ended up getting one for my brother. And connectivity across major networks is top-notch. Was super surprised at the quality of the display. Welldone Samsung.

    Overall not a bad phone.

    I bought this phone about 2 years ago. Been a great phone but like most basic models the battery is not staying charged for a long time. It drains quickly over a short period of time. But still a great basic model screen is a great size, camera has a lot of options and does clear pictures. It's easy to connect to any wifi, unless your on the road sometimes it does not work well. Again for a basic model its great for storing pictures and basic needs.
