About the Samsung Galaxy A71 Unlocked

The A71 was Samsung's upper mid-range phone at the start of the decade, and it was well specified for its class. The 6.7-inch screen is one of the largest in the A range, and at 7.7 mm and 179 g it stays slim and manageable despite the size. There is 6GB of RAM, which is more than most phones at this level carry, and storage can be expanded with a microSD card of up to 1 TB. The rear camera has four lenses covering wide, ultrawide, macro and depth, and the 32 MP front camera is unusually high resolution for selfies and video calls. A 4500 mAh battery and a 3.5 mm headphone jack round it out. It suits a straightforward user who wants a big screen and plenty of storage.

Things to consider

This is the oldest phone in the range and it shows in one important way: both its major operating system updates and its security patches have now ended, so it will not receive new software. It is a 4G device, so there is no 5G. There is no wireless charging, and it takes a physical nano-SIM rather than an eSIM. Anyone who wants current software support or the fastest data speeds should choose a newer model.

Is the Samsung Galaxy A71 a good buy?

It depends on what the phone is for. As a spare handset, a work phone, a first phone for a younger user, or a device for calls, messaging, music and video, it still delivers a large screen, ample memory and expandable storage. As a main phone meant to last several more years, the end of software support is a real drawback and worth weighing carefully. Buy it for the hardware and the price bracket, not for longevity.

After having bad luck with a refurbished i-Phone from Amazon I was very lucky to find Need-a-Phone. I reviewed their listings for a refurbished iPhone 13 mini and was delighted with the result. My phone arrived a bit earlier than I expected. When I set it up and transferred my data I found that the battery health was actually significantly higher than the minimum in their specifications. It was in great physical condition as well, with no scratches and a pristine screen. The cost was very close to the one from Amazon that I had to return. Need-a-Phone met or exceeded all of my expectations. My next order for a phone will be with them for sure!

I received my phone writhing a few buisiness days of ordering it. Communication with need-a-phone was prompt and courteous. The phone arrived in pristine condition and battery was at 100%. I even received a follow up email to be sure everything was satisfactory.

I"m really glad I went this route to find a new phone. It was exactly as advertised. Price was good. Delivery was very quick. I hope I don't have to replace my phone again for a very long time, and when I do I will order through here again.

Need-a-phone is excellent for supplying newish iPhones! I was looking at Amazon for a different iPhone! But the reviews weren’t that good for the one I wanted, so Facebook displayed need-a-phone! I was sceptical but checked out the company and found great reviews and BBB cert! So selected an excellent rated iPhone 13 at a great price and ordered on a Sunday and received Tuesday morning in Edmonton! I am very pleased with the condition, operation, battery life and ordering process! All very very good! Overall I would highly recommend Need-a-phone for anyone wanting a newish phone with no high contracts(I have a BYOD with Shaw/Rogers)

My old phone was giving me some trouble so I upgraded to a new phone today. The process was quick, the price was good and Kunal was extremely knowledgeable and helpful.
