Samsung's about to drop this new phone, the Galaxy A16. It's like they're trying to convince us that budget phones can actually be kinda cool. We're talking a big ol' screen that’s probably got more pixels than your grandma’s living room carpet, and a camera setup that promises to make your selfie game stronger than a black coffee.

Is it a budget champ or just another brick? - The A16 aims to be the affordable hero, but can it deliver the goods without breaking the bank?
Got the juice to last a day? - Battery life is key. Can this thing keep up with your binge-watching habits?
Camera: Snap happy or meh? - We've seen budget phones with cameras that are about as sharp as a potato. Can the A16 buck that trend?
Speed demon or snail pace? - No one likes a laggy phone. How does the A16 handle multitasking and gaming?
Design: Pretty or plain Jane? - Looks matter. Is the A16 a looker or just another boring rectangle?
