A36 Samsung Galaxy Phone Review


Let me just say this phone is quick and responsive. I have not had a lag or anything nor a stutter with this phone. I love this phone! You have two different bars up top, left side is notification, right side is system settings. If you swipe to on the right side you get a pinned app bar so you can easily navigate your apps.

If you swipe up on the bottom on the screen you get Samsung wallet which is cool it pulls out a little card as if you are pulling it out of your wallet.

It has wireless charging, tap touch. However I am use to my power button unlocking my phone with the touch sensor. I am not use to the touch sensor being in the screen to unlock.

You hold power button, it turns on the flashlight but you have to set
it up using the good lock app in the Samsung store which will allow you to customize your phone to your liking. It was quick and easy to migrate all of my apps, settings and stuff from the Moto to the Samsung. I highly recommend this phone if you are wanting something different and new.

The back is made of glass in which I like but I am nervous because it could shatter.

Even though this phone is made out of gorilla glass, I already got a scratch on it from it flying into the floorboard due to a deer crossing. The battery on this phone is alright. I am not sure if it is still learning me or not and that is why it’s not holding a good charge. Like a few minutes to an hour later the battery is kind of drained.

I figured out there was some background apps running and I put the phone on battery saver and it seems to be lasting longer than it was. That and the flashlight being connected to the power button kind of did it too.



I love this phone because everything is customizable on it. You can change the home screen buttons. You can have two different images on your home screen and lock screen in which no other phone allows that unless you make a collage. You can also customize your notification settings and have things float across your screen every time you get a notification. I however have a blue bubble that pops up on mine depending on the notification and I also have flowers that floats across the screen.

I love love love this phone. It is easy to use and simple. I was not sure coming from moto because prior to moving to moto I had a Samsung way back when and the digitizer went out in it when I dropped it and it just made me stay away from Samsung but now, I gain to love it again.

This phone is great also at keeping up with my medical records and appointments and medications because honestly, life be lifing and I be forgetting to take them but this phone is great at reminding me and keeping up with everything.

The Goodlock app is amazing at customizing everything. You pretty much go in and look for the apps you are wanting or things that can make the phone better and download them. If you do not like them you can remove them through there by hitting the I with the circle and it will pull up the page and about the app then there is a trash can on top.
