        Samsung Galaxy A16 5G Review

        The Galaxy A16 is a budget phone built to last. The 6-year update promise is a standout feature, and the AMOLED screen is vibrant, but the outdated waterdrop notch, combined with lacking stereo speakers and average performance, makes it a hard buy. Combined with slow 25W charging, it’s a basic device meant to survive, not thrive. It could be perfect for grandparents, but if you need an all around experience, there are better options in the market.

        Pros

        • Good battery endurance
        • Excellent AMOLED display
        • Best in segment software support
        • Great main camera

        Cons

        • No stereo speakers
        • Sub-par performance
        • No dedicated proximity sensor
        • Outdated design
