Can’t Find Anything To Dislike About It Yet
After reading all the reviews about this phone for several days … especially the most negative ones, I decided to buy it anyway.When I received the phone, it’s condition, printed user guide and packaging, including the charger and usb-c cable appeared “new.” Even the plastic bag which it came with stated so. When I powered the unit for the first time it had no problem booting to the setup screen which was in Spanish and indicated that its 5000mAh battery was 50% charged. Although it wasn’t difficult to change the language to English, I decided to power it down and wait until it was fully charged before continuing with the setup. This took around 30 minutes to complete. I needed to completely transfer as much of my data, folder, contacts and apps from my old Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime to this Samsung Galaxy A25 5G so I used the free Samsung app from the Google Playstore to accomplish this. The transfer over wifi took a few hours and only left out 5 apps which were relatively unimportant and easilly reloaded to the new phone from the playstore.Trying to save a few bucks, I then tried to switch my sim card from the old phone to the new phone myself. I followed the online instructions provided by Metro by T-Mobile, but this is where I encountered a problem. The IMEI number was not recognized by Metro and suggested I call for assistance. I wondered if the negative comments about this phone not being truly unlocked and not working in North America were true, so I decided to stop at this point and just wait until I could visit the nearest Metro store for help.The following morning, I did so. To my surprise it only took all of under 5 minutes and at a cost of $26.78 for a new sim card plus an activation fee to have me out the door with my old phone number successfully transferred to the new phone. Since then, the Samsung Galaxy A25 5G seems to be functioning just fine. I love how bright and clear the screen is. Its responsive and easy it is to use inspite of the fact that it is light years more advanced that my old one. I’m still learning about all its innovations and how to use it properly. Imagine, within a day of receiving this new phone I went from a smartphone using Android 7.11 OS to Android 14 OS!!! Would anyone believe that had I not needed to switch to an an Android OS of 11+ just to be able to utilize my car’s Andro Auto Infotainment System fully, I would still be using my old J7 Prime?!Though not as powerful as the latest Galaxy S or N models, its specs including it’s screen, video and multi-camera resolutions, refresh rate, processing unit, tactile response and even its storage expandability are fairly impressive if not respectable at such an affordable prize. If down the road I find anything to dislike or complain about it, I’ll be sure to write an addendum to this review. In a nutshell … I can vouch that this phone works just fine with Metro by T-Mobile cellular carrier in Florida (or at least my neck of the woods, East Central Florida) and can make calls either over wifi or just using cellular data.

A great phone!!
The phone is truly a middle range device. It’s has excellent response feedback from the interface and buttons. Not to large to fit in a pocket. The battery life is pretty good. Charging it takes a little bit longer if you don’t have fast charging cables. I purchased this device to use with service provider Mint Mobile. Works great, and almost $200 less expensive than Mint Mobile. It is also $100 less expensive than at Best Buy or Samsung. The listing states it’s an international unlocked device and in comparison to US version, the SIM card slots are the only difference. Now Samsung did install a significant amount of bloat ware, but can be uninstalled. Now there is Samsung Protection Application that is a pain in the butt. Can’t uninstall it. It’s to micromanage every single app and anything that requires a password. Very aggressive and invasive software, I ended up disabling it within hours of receiving my new phone. Also please take the compatibility warning seriously, it will not work on Verizon / CDMA cell phone towers.

The phone stopped working after seven (7) months and Samsum refuses to fix it
The phone looked and still looks pristine. But there is a bright 1/4 inch white line on the display now and the display does not react to touch in several places. No scraches, no dents, no cracks, no water impact.I have tried to have it fixed with Samsung as it is less than 12 months old but Samsung refused stating it was not purchased in the US. When I was buying it the title was ‘Samsung Galaxy A25 5G (SM-A256E/DS), 128GB 6GB RAM, Dual SIM, Factory Unlocked GSM, International Version (Wall Charger Bundle) – (Blue Black)’ so it wasn’t looking like something from the outside of the country…If the seller sees this message I would greatly appreciate contact. I will remove this post with your help.(I will send, if this is possible, this message to the seller.)HOWEVER Samsung claims it is not supported in the USA and refuses to have it fixed.

I specifically bought to use in Brazil and it worked fine there.
I specifically bought to use in Brazil and it worked fine there. It also worked fine in the US. The one problem I had was that most of the vendors in Brazil tried to swap out the SIM card. For some reason, US carriers prevent that from working. Not sure how they do it, but by using the second sim slot it worked fine. So I used Mint Mobile here and Vivo in Brazil, but Claro also worked.

Mixed Feelings
I’ve had mixed feelings about this phone. I was transitioning from an iphone, so android was new to me. It took a bit for me to get though the kinks, by the time i did i couldn’t return it. I use Mint Mobile. One major thing is this phone is not compatible for wifi calling. Ive definitely had issues with call quality as well, the microphobe and speaker are not the best. And the phone seems slow. I wish I could return it but its too late now. It was a decent value for the $, but not great for me. Im looking for an alternative.

Seemed slightly sketchy, but it is legit.
I wasn’t sure if i was going to get a paperweight instead of a phone with this listing to be honest. But it is the real deal. Was concerned about it being the Latin version; Phone boots up in spanish but is easy to switch to English. Inserted my US sim card and it switched right over.Bought it at over $100 discount from the manufacturer MSRP.

He tenido este teléfono durante casi un mes y hasta ahora, todo bien. Me tomó un poco de tiempo transferir toda mi información a este y, dado que no soy muy experto en tecnologÃa, el proceso fue sencillo. Tengo que cargarlo (hasta el 90%) una o dos veces al dÃa, todos los dÃas. Lo uso para leer y escuchar música durante todo el dÃa principalmente. La calidad de las fotos y la música es buena. Estoy muy satisfecho con ello.

El pedido llego super rapido, mi unica queja es que la descripción que aparece en el catalogo no corresponde, ademas difiere de los detalles descritos en las especificaciones del producto.Sin embargo el precio es justo por lo que recibÃ, el equipo funciona bien y su estética es de 10.

No me gusta tanto como mi teléfono anterior, que era el Galaxy A23. El A25 necesita cargarse aproximadamente el doble de veces que el A23, y el A25 tarda más en cargarse. De lo contrario, es un teléfono decente por el precio. Nota: No recomiendo comprar el A23. Me encantaba el teléfono, pero Samsung lanzó una actualización de software con un error que nunca solucionaron. El error de software básicamente mataba el teléfono si lo apagabas o intentabas reiniciarlo. Emitieron una advertencia sobre esto en abril de 2024. Evité reiniciar mi teléfono, pero después de seis meses tuve que reiniciarlo. Pensé que habÃa pasado suficiente tiempo para que Samsung hubiera arreglado el software, pero no lo hicieron. Ni siquiera un técnico experto en teléfonos pudo revivir mi teléfono.
