Pros
  • Cheap 5G, finally. You don’t have to sell a kidney to get next-gen internet speeds.
  •  You get a microSD slot—yep, up to 1TB. Go wild with your memes and cat videos.
  •  Battery? 5000mAh, so you’re not stuck hugging the wall charger all day.
  • Still rocking headphones? The 3.5mm jack is alive and kicking.
Cons
  • The screen is 720p LCD, so don’t expect to binge Netflix in crispy HD. It’s kinda meh.
  • Heavy apps? The phone’s gonna wheeze. It’s fine for scrolling Insta, not for gaming marathons.
  •  No IP rating, so don’t drop it in the toilet (seriously, just... don’t).
  • Charging is slow—15W feels ancient in 2025. Go make some coffee while it charges.

Performance

You get either Dimensity 6020 or Exynos 1330—both are alright for the basics, but don’t expect miracles. Multitasking or gaming? The phone might start sweating.

2. Camera:                                                                      

48MP main cam gets the job done in daylight. Low-light? Nah, just forget it. The ultrawide and macro are just for show. Selfies? 8MP, don’t expect influencer magic.

3. Design:

Black, Blue, Green—very “starter pack.” All plastic, but at least it’s cheap.

4. Durability:

No fancy water resistance. Plastic body will survive a drop, not a bath.

5. Battery:

Lasts a day or two. 15W charging is slow but not tragic. No wireless charging, but did you really expect it?

The Galaxy F16 5G is for folks who want 5G and don’t want to spend much. Battery life is solid, but the display and performance are strictly entry-level. If you’re a Samsung loyalist on a budget, it’s a practical pick. Otherwise, you might want to check what Realme’s cooking.
