Samsung Galaxy A14 5G A Series, Factory Unlocked, 64GB, US Version, Black (Renewed)

Title: Excellent Budget Smartphone – Great Value for the Price! I’ve been using the Samsung Galaxy A14 5G for a while now, and I’m honestly very impressed with what it offers for the price. The phone looks modern and feels solid in the hand, with a nice large display that’s perfect for watching videos, browsing social media, and everyday use. The screen is bright and clear, and the size makes everything easier to see without feeling too bulky. Performance has been smooth for my daily tasks like calls, messages, apps, banking, and streaming. It handles multitasking better than I expected for a budget-friendly device. The 5G connectivity is also a big plus—it provides fast internet speeds when I’m out and about, which makes streaming and downloads much quicker. The battery life is one of my favorite features. It easily lasts me a full day (and sometimes more) without needing to recharge, even with regular use. That’s a huge advantage if you’re busy or travel often. Charging time is reasonable, and I like not having to worry about carrying a charger everywhere. The camera does a really good job for the price range. Photos come out sharp in good lighting, and the different camera modes are fun to use. It’s great for casual pictures, social media posts, and video calls. Setup was simple, the phone came unlocked, and it worked perfectly with my carrier. Overall, I think this is an excellent smartphone for anyone looking for reliability, modern features, and 5G capability without spending a fortune. Definitely a great value purchase—I would recommend it to family and friends.

I’m extremely happy with the Samsung phone I purchased because it delivers great performance, a sleek design, and impressive features at a reasonable price. The display is bright and clear, making videos, games, and everyday scrolling look amazing. The phone runs smoothly without lag, even when multitasking or using demanding apps. I also really like the camera quality—it takes sharp, vibrant photos and records clear videos. The battery life easily lasts through the day, which is perfect for school, work, and entertainment. Overall, this Samsung phone has exceeded my expectations and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and high-quality smartphone.

The Germans have a wonderful word concoction: "Verschlimmbessern" Meaning to improve something continuously and by that making gradually worse and eventually useless. In our "update mania" world this here is a classic case. The phone has a way to sensitive touchscreen and no matter what you try from the gazillion settings there is only one to increase the sensitivity but not to decrease it! You can search online that issue. Tests I did show that the touchscreen responds when the finger is actually is not touching the screen but is 0.5- 1mm ( 1/52" - 2/52") away from it! This leads of course to an absurd overreaction when you handle the phone, even with the palm protection on, it reacts unintentionally. Often even it responses before you have actually touched anything simply because you moved your finger without touching the screen! Then there is the OS, by now Android 14. Another effort to overload an overdo many functions and poorly organize them. all of course in the eternal other obsession "security". The [settings] interface is not intuitive and straightforward anymore like it used to be in older android OSs. Whereas like in earlier versions you could customize and prioritize which icon functions you wanted where, that no longer seems to be possible. And then of course the confirmation pop-up window mania. Say you want to turn something off or delete a message/email. You have to go on a regular basis through three confirmations! DUH? Say you select an email or SMS and click on delete, then it asks you first if you want to delete it, and then and then again were you wanted deleted to and finally you need to confirm that! Really? Seriously? notwithstanding that the new and improved absolutely outlandish privacy terms and all other terms all of them with their 10,000 links to other terms about terms and privacy etc. blah blah... I really feel being raped on a daily basis. Furthermore for some reason despite larger screen all the fonts are smaller but layout spacing is larger with more wasted space. (yes I tried the font sizing). Total useless another feature is, that you can choose from an endless variety of different fonts... Any app you start needs a gazillion confirmations requesting permission to give access to this and that, here and there etc. etc. Overall straightforward sensible layout of the interface and functionality is gone. Here's a personal comparison and experience. Before I upgraded to this phone I had a Samsung S5 with OS Android 6.01. Everything worked fine I never had an issue SMS and MMS sent out instantaneously and everything else worked. Of course with new apps the phone became, aside from artificial incompatibilities, slower and slower. P part of a marketing ploy probably. Now I have a Samsung A14 5G with Android 14. MMS take much longer and needs two or three confirmations... And when executing a functioning in an app, next time I open the app I have to navigate back as it doesn't go back like previously by default. There's more but that would take up too much space to writeup here. Remember the peaceful relaxed time when we had a Bell telephone and a typewriter? We were able to communicate and even managed to fly two men to the moon and bring them safely back...

we bought 1 phone had to return and good news too because this one was A+++ condition. right from the box it was packed with care and looked almost brand new. popped in our sim card and voila worked like a charm !! exactly as it should no surprises. even came with a charging cord and block. this is what a good seller and product should be. it connected to the wifi and internet and was a great value. the screen was crystal clear. the battery charged quickly with no lag.
