Pros
Our editorial view of this model’s strengths and limitations.
A high-contrast screen
The Samsung Galaxy A16 has a 6.7-inch OLED screen with deep blacks that give photos and video more depth. It also suits reading with a dark theme.
Expandable storage
The Samsung Galaxy A16 supports microSD. Photos, music and downloaded videos can go on a card to free up internal space. Using a card alongside two SIMs depends on the tray layout.
A sizeable battery and wired charging
The Samsung Galaxy A16 combines a 5000 mAh battery with charging at up to 25 W. It is a practical everyday combination, though runtime depends on brightness, network conditions and workload. Maximum charging power needs a compatible adapter.
Room for more in the frame
An ultrawide camera sits alongside the main camera. It helps fit a room, a large building or a group of friends into the frame without having to step far back.
