Awesome practical and awesome

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The most awesome phone I have had since my alpha I've had several samsung devices starting with the S4 mini several j3 and a few tablets my current is an A14 I still have the 42 but I have to replace the screen and digitizer. Which brings me to the only real flaws I have noticed in any of my samsung devices the screens are not very susceptible to rough abuse I work landscaping and construction out phones take a beating but it's all part of it I guess because I've yet to find a phone that I don't have to replace because of the screen. Thanks Samsung for providing too notch devices.

Okay, has some things that need to be fixed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, it's an okay phone. It's good if you're looking for basic, but the Accidental Touch Protection doesn't work as it should. If you carry this phone in your pocket don't be surprised if you find numerous screenshots and web pages opened that you didn't open. With this phone I've even had missed video calls from myself. I find that strange. It'll even send text messages with letters, numbers and special characters. I won't buy this phone again. Probably wouldn't recommend it to anyone either.

I love my phone SO much!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm an entrepreneur, and so my day is filled with responding to messages and emails, as well as posting on social media. The quality and speed of my A42 makes being able to get my work done SO much easier, I have absolutely ZERO issues when it comes to completing assignments/projects in a timely manner. I'm also a part time photographer, so I utilize the A42's camera on a regular basis. Whenever I can't get to my Canon camera, my phone's camera is such a beautiful substitute. The colors are ON POINT, and that's very important. I can literally get paid for the pictures I take on my phone! I also love the amount of space on it because that's a very big thing for me. I'm also a songwriter, and I write and have written ALL of my songs on my phone. I love how easily I can access each one of them, especially when I have to take a break and go back later. The amount of songs/instrumentals I'm able to store on my phone is commendable, and I appreciate the developers for keeping that in mind. I'm also a writer (I wear MANY hats) and sometimes it requires for me to do some research. Whenever I can't get to my computer, my A42 gives me the ability to get the information I need right away. That's something I can truly appreciate, and I love the convenience! Thank you, Samsung. You're doing very well fo yourselves and I will that everything you create from this point forward just continues to get better and better.

No issues with this phone

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my Samsung phone for work, social media, reminders, an alarm clock, games, banking, paying bills, taking pictures, and staying in contact with people by calling or text. The phone meets my needs. The only thing that could be better is the camera, but then again this is an older version and the newer Samsung phones have better cameras.

Great phone decent camera

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After two bad phones with battery issues this phone is the first to last me over 2 years. I love the features on it especially for having the games in one place and being able to get collectibles by downloading and playing games. The only real issue I have with this device is the camera quality is not the best. Most of my photos turn out fuzzy and blurry but I do not take a ton of photos anyway but that's why I rate only 4 out of 5 stars. Otherwise it's an amazing phone with great features especially themes as I love to change my backgrounds and love that you can change app icons too.
