    You enable "cross device services" without my knowledge?! I just want a phone. I do not want a Samsung privacy-invading surveillance device. The battery tests at 101% of rated capacity but drains inordinately fast. I am constantly having to review ALL settings in my fight to maintain privacy and try to make the battery drain more slowly. I can't use the stock camera because of obligatory privacy-invading settings. And I will not sign in to my Samsung account on this phone. This A36 5G is far from trustworthy and far from efficient. Samsung should be ashamed of themselves. I have never been more sorry that I pu...

    I dread even the thought of not having my Galaxy A36 5G as it comes equipped with a powerhouse of tools and features that can adapt to any lifestyle. From staying on track of my health, important deadlines, to finding time throughout the day for mental brakes, this device simply does it all. The Knox extra security layer eases the mind in knowing that your data and privacy concerns are being taken seriously. The battery life is unbelievably reliable for a phone that has so much to offer as I am averaging a single charge per...

    This cell phone simply does what a cell phone should do, and has features that are on par with higher end cellulars such as camera resolution/quality and provides an emulated or virtual cell phone along with using a sim card, simultaneously, if the user needs for example, a separate business line. The memory provides enough space to store apps and documents while the hardware allows a broad, flexibility to enable exotic apps such as spectroscopy or sound into photo. Overall, the price and quality for Galaxy AI and what i...

    It has all the bells and whistles as the upgraded galaxy AI which is helpful but has no spot for sd cards and is kinda weak construction and the plastic or glass on the back of the case easily breaks just with something else in ur pocket . It runs smooth as I do used it for everything from gaming and work and then entertainment although missjng the 3. 5 jack kinda sucks with an older home theater system but can always get a dongle....the front glass seems to hold up good and speed is nice just need a Lil more memorely b...

    Samsung made this phone reasonably priced. Then made it easy to use. Being 70yrs old i have to have something easy and yet comfortable with maneuvering around the apps and files. They sure did get it right with this phone. Who'd of thought that Grandma could ever figure out the biometrics and really loves using it. Or the Galaxy Ai stuff. Which I'm still learning new things, but the AI on pictures is great. Actually I must say Samsung has really done an awesome job making me feel secure and safe with this phone. I would ...

    I use my Samsung device for everything! Like 128GB of storage and the size of the screen is good 6.7 with a bright screen. I use it to log in to my favorite websites like Instagram Facebook or X to say a few. I also use it to watch YouTube videos and asking AI for help! Not to mention the phenomenal pictures it takes. My device never let's me down. I've only purchased Samsung Galaxy products since back when androids 1st came out. When it comes to playing bigger games it lags a bit. The battery may not last as long as i...

    The phone has the basic necessities. Calls, texting, and even a decent front camera. It can surf the web well, and social media use is decent. It even has its Galaxy AI that also functions like any other. The downside to all this is the processing power. You constantly need to make sure you clear enough space to keep it running smoothly because it can barely take even the smallest tasks at times. If your only need is calling, texting, the occasional Google search, and casual social media use then this is fine but any more than that, literally anything more than that- you might as well get a flagship phone or something ...

    I happily use my phone to stream with my hearing aids. My last one was an A13, and phenomenal; however, it could not do that. I really miss the headphone jack which is missing on A36. Probably for the better, since I have hearing issues..and shouldn't be blaring music through my fancy headphones. I totally loved my S10, and A13. At first I thought it was overheating but realized that this Texas summer heat is enough~to do anything in. I just keep it out of the heat, and so far-its been fine. It charges super fast! Excel...
