Reviews

7.7/10 by Shimul Sood | 28 Nov 2024

With its vibrant display and 90Hz refresh rate, the Galaxy A16 offers a smooth experience for everyday tasks. However, it heats up during extended gaming sessions, and its camera is just average, especially for selfies. If you're after solid performance and battery life, it’s a good choice. But for a more well-rounded experience in the under-Rs 20,000 range, consider options like the OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite or iQOO Z9s.
