Title: Reliability
Review: Purchased this midrange phone for my teens. They are happy. ****The AI Review says someone stated the phone does not use AT&T data. That info is FALSE. It can indeed use AT&T data as thatt is our carrier for this phone model.

Title: Can’t Find Anything To Dislike About It Yet
Review: 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.

Title: Works with AT&T ,has slot for an SD card and has an embedded FM radio tuner
Review: I bought this to replace my Samsung Galaxy S20+ which is no longer supported by Samsung this year. I am actually a long term fan of the S series but since I prefer phones with SD cards, I decided to try the A25 .I’m glad I did! The A25 is comparable to the S20+ in terms of performance . The touchscreen was responsive and Internet was fast. Phone calls were clear with no dropped connections. The speakers are not as nice as the S20+ but I can live with that. I bought the international version hoping it has an FM radio tuner. Hooray! It’s there! For those unfamiliar with this feature found in some non US phones, this embedded tuner lets you listen to local FM stations even if you don’t have Internet access. Very useful in emergency situations!Just insert old school wired earphones in the headphone jack and you’re good to go. The wires function as a radio antenna. I am US based and I can confirm it works with AT&T . Just insert your sim card and you’re connected ,even if you receive an auto text from AT&T stating this phone is not compatible. The only downside is there is no wireless charging but you can just attach a small thingamajig to the back of the phone and the USB port. Voila! Wireless charging .I am pleased with this purchase so far 😀

Title: ZERO COMPATABILITY
Review: Do NOT buy this phone if you are in the U.S. You will not get service here. I thought since this being a Samsung phone it would work just fine, nope. I have gone through weeks of headaches trying to get this to work only to find out the these phones are not compatible in the U.S. whatsoever. DO NOT BUY.

Title: New phone, an upgrade for me
Review: So far I’m enjoying this phone. Once it’s set up, it’s easy to use. I like the features I’ve found so far (ringtones, being able to use emojis for individual texts in the same chat, etc) , still trying to figure out everything it does. Love the speed of the 5G.

Title: don’t expect too much
Review: The Samsung A25 is a decent budget phone. It has a nice display and the battery life is good. However, the camera is just average and the performance can be a bit sluggish at times. Overall, it’s a good phone for the price, but don’t expect too much.

Title: I specifically bought to use in Brazil and it worked fine there.
Review: 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.

Review: 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 tecnología, el proceso fue sencillo. Tengo que cargarlo (hasta el 90%) una o dos veces al día, todos los días. Lo uso para leer y escuchar música durante todo el día principalmente. La calidad de las fotos y la música es buena. Estoy muy satisfecho con ello.
