[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazing display: It features a larger, brighter 6.7-inch Super AMOLED screen with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. With peak brightness reaching up to 1,900 nits, outdoor visibility is significantly improved.
Charging: The A36 upgrades to 45W wired charging speeds (up from the standard 25W), letting you juice up the massive 5,000 mAh battery much quicker.
Camera: The 50MP primary camera with Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) takes sharp, color-accurate photos in daylight and supports 4K video recording. Combined with Galaxy AI, it's a strong force that works together.
Battery life: Solid all day battery life that's reliable and respectable.

Hello Andrew, Thank you for updating us on your experience with the Galaxy A36 5G. The vibrant display, reliable 5G connectivity, and versatile camera system make the Galaxy A36 5G a well-rounded everyday phone. We understand how important clear call audio is, especially since you have received a replacement and are still experiencing the same concern. If the call problems occurred with only one phone, it would be understandable, but experiencing the same concern with a second phone may indicate that the issue is related to your carrier. Your carrier might be rerouting or filtering your calls, so it’s important to check with them for guidance on resolving any potential rerouting. Your feedback about callers being unable to hear you is valuable and has been documented.

Hello Shak, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with the Galaxy A36 5G. This device features a bright display, reliable 5G connectivity, and a long-lasting battery designed to support your busy lifestyle. We understand that having your phone slow down while using GPS, Bluetooth, and the Uber app can disrupt your workday and waste valuable time. You may experience lag when using Bluetooth and GPS simultaneously due to the device's processing power. To ensure smooth performance while using both features, please close any unnecessary background applications and optimize your phone. The Quick Optimization feature can enhance your device's performance by identifying apps that drain battery life. It efficiently clears unnecessary items from memory, deletes unnecessary files, scans for malware, and shuts down apps running in the background. Optimizing your phone is quick and straightforward. To do this, go to Settings, scroll to Device Care, tap Optimize Now, then tap Done. For more information, please see the online article linked below. Your feedback on multitasking performance is valuable, especially when your phone is essential for navigation and ride requests. Thank you for sharing these insights with Samsung.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Samsung Galaxy isn’t just a phone; it’s the command center for my vibrant life. Balancing five children, a career, an upcoming podcast ("Getting you ready for life"), and creative writing, this device bridges my grandest ambitions and daily reality, supercharged by Samsung.
In my world, passion and logistics run hand in hand. Whether I'm live-streaming my daughter’s majorette parade, tracking my son's soccer conditioning, or streaming movies and gaming during rare downtime, the brilliant display brings every moment to life. Where this device truly transcends standard tech is the hustle. When researching societal issues for my podcast or writing encouraging lyrics for a youth dance team, Galaxy AI acts as an intuitive creative partner to organize thoughts and refine scripts. For school projects, like my children's STEM boards, it transforms into a research hub to instantly explore complex bioengineering concepts. The ultimate synergy happens on the move. Navigating Chicago requires absolute precision. By integrating Google Maps, my morning commute is completely optimized. Galaxy AI works in the background to predict routes, adjust for Metra schedules, and streamline my drive to the Amazon station. As I coordinate my son's summer STEM intensive or plan a professional transfer closer to home, Google Maps doesn't just show traffic it maps out my time. It wins back precious minutes for family and poetry. My Samsung phone turns a hectic schedule into a symphony of achievement.
