Reviews for the Samsung Galaxy A16 5G
Source: Cashify EN→zh-CN
The Samsung Galaxy A16 5G offers a good mix of software and hardware under a price tag of Rs.20,000. With six years of OS updates, the Samsung Galaxy A16 is perfect for those looking for long-term support. You get a great display, decent cameras and a long-lasting battery backup. But you will need to contend with an average processor, teardrop notch and lack of 4K video recording, which are standard specs at this price. If you want a better Samsung phone, you can consider options like the Samsung Galaxy A34 5G from last year. Similarly, the Samsung Galaxy M35 5G is available at a cheaper price. Both phones offer much better displays, performance, batteries and cameras.

The Samsung Galaxy A16 5G is a capable yet unambitious addition to the brand’s lineup, catering to users seeking essential functionality rather than standout features. Its understated design, lightweight build, and IP54 rating ensure a practical daily companion, while the Dimensity 6300 chipset delivers smooth performance for basic tasks. However, the display’s 90 Hz refresh rate and moderate brightness levels feel underwhelming in a competitive market. While its 50 MP camera impresses in daylight, low-light struggles and limited video capabilities reveal its budget nature. Battery performance is adequate but falls short of expectations, given the efficient hardware. At ₹18,999, it faces stiff competition from better-rounded options like the Motorola G85 and OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite.

Samsung Galaxy A16 5G looks like an appealing deal for those who want extended software support with a feature-rich experience and a long runtime. Apart from that, the Galaxy A16 5G doesn't quite impress when it comes to power, as the processor is significantly inferior compared to competition. While the cameras are decent, there are some performance hiccups that could disturb your daily usage.

The Galaxy A16 5G is roughly a $200 phone and we cannot expect too much. In some areas, it beats our expectations. It's got a gorgeous and now bigger display, decent battery life and a camera that can now record better video. It also has six years of software updates, a rarity for such dirt cheap phone. But unfortunately it still feels a bit too slow and stuttery, and this is a major red flag. This quickly gets annoying when you scroll around social media and the phone has not improved its GPU and gaming performance at all since last year. It will get the job done for some users who don't care too much about performance, but if you value a fast and smooth phones, there might be better options around. Keep an eye on our best budget phones lineup for the latest in that space.

Samsung is not shaking things up but is instead following a familiar formula with the Galaxy A16 5G. They've got the basics right and they've added 6 years of OS updates to spice things up. Check out our video review to learn ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW about the phone's top features, build and screen quality, battery life, performance, and camera image quality.

The Galaxy A16 5G is a nicely constructed device covering most bases. We particularly like Samsung's fairly new commitment to up to six major Android upgrades on modest devices. Undoubtedly, there is a lot to love about One UI and all of the added features it offers. However, the Galaxy A16 5G seems to be behind the times in more ways than one. Samsung just isn't packing in that budget value like many other competitors. For example, the phone is only IP54 rated, it lacks stereo speakers, and its display, while not bad in any way, only has a 90Hz refresh rate and pretty modest maximum brightness. The Exynos 1330 chipset that we tested offers modest performance at best.

只有较少的手机有很大的屏幕。
大尺寸可以让屏幕有更高的分辨率。因而例如字体等的细节将会更丰富。不过另一方面,小屏幕的功耗会较低,而设备也会更轻盈小巧,售价更低。
