The SIM Free Samsung Galaxy A16 4G gives you complete mobile freedom with a stunning 6.7-inch Super AMOLED display that makes scrolling, streaming and video calls genuinely immersive. The 50-megapixel main camera captures sharp, vibrant photos whether you're documenting everyday moments or special occasions, backed by a 5-megapixel and 2-megapixel rear camera for added versatility. With 128GB of storage built in, you've got plenty of room for thousands of photos, all your essential apps, and music without constantly juggling space.

Response from argos:
Lovely to hear that you’re happy with your awesome Galaxy A16 overall! We also appreciate your feedback about the headphone jack, which was removed to make space for larger components and help keep the device thinner. You can still use USB-C headphones or wireless ones for a cable-free listening experience. We’d also like to share this useful guide with you, which provides advice on keeping your device running as smoothly as possible: https://www.samsung.com/uk/support/mobile-devices/why-is-my-phone-slowing-down-and-how-can-i-speed-it-up/ Finally, you can still use third-party apps if you’d like to record your screen on your device. We’re confident that the guidance and information above will help you enjoy a five-star experience with your product!

We appreciate your question, Thomas. The Galaxy A16 does not have a listed built-in FM radio feature in the UK. You can, however, listen to radio stations through compatible internet radio or streaming apps. We hope this helps.
Thanks for your question, Adam. You certainly can. You can use any Nano SIM card from any network provider while keeping the number associated with your SIM card. If you’d like to change your SIM card while keeping the same number, you’ll need to request a replacement SIM from your network provider. We hope this helps.

If your current SIM can be separated into a Nano-SIM, it should work with the Galaxy A16. If not, you'll need to request a replacement Nano-SIM from your network provider.
