Do Not Buy a Samsung Galaxy A36 5G Mobile – Extremely Disappointed

Samsung Galaxy A36 5G – Extremely Disappointed
with Performance and Reliability

it's not just frustrating — it’s heartbreaking. [/B]

This is honestly the worst phone by Samsung
I’ve ever used.
I'm going to sell it and I will never buy
any Samsung device again.

Very disappointed and frustrated..35,000?
A phone at this price should offer solid
performance out of the box,
not require us to disable every feature
just to stop it from heating up or
draining the battery.

What hurts the most is that phones costing
half the price are giving better performance,
battery life, and reliability.
People with money can easily replace
a bad phone.
But for middle-class people like us,
buying a phone is a one-time investment
after months or years of savings.
When that phone turns out to be this bad,
it's not just frustrating — it’s heartbreaking.

This is honestly the worst phone by Samsung
I’ve ever used. I'm going to sell it and
I will never buy any Samsung device again.

Haven't bought Samsung in years. They load the phones with so much bloat at the OS-level, so even if it's the best on the market, it runs like **** after loaded with user apps. No point. And it costs more than phones that run much better.

Should have got a Nokia 3210

"after spending €35,000?" Really? :laugh:

It is Hard to Turn Off


[The Samsung A36 5G is hard to turn off
because the default action
for a long press of the side (power) button
is to activate the Bixby assistant,
not to bring up the power menu.

To turn off the phone, you must press
and hold the Side
(Power) button and the Volume Down
button together simultaneously.
An alternative method is to access the
power menu from the Quick Settings panel
by swiping down from the top of
the screen and tapping the power icon]

…well it’s one of the points in the review though, how expensive it is…for the 35,0000 the reviewer hoped it would have offered solid performance out of the box…then that disappointment might not have been so extreme/so disappointing in its extremely etc….?…
