Hello Samsung Team!

I am a Galaxy A16 LTE user and I truly appreciate the improvements that One UI 8.0 brings. However, I noticed that the Always On Display (AOD) feature is not available on this model.

Since AOD is a very useful feature for checking notifications, time, and battery status without unlocking the phone, I believe many A16 LTE users would benefit greatly if this function could be enabled through a future software update.

If there are hardware or battery considerations, perhaps a simplified or limited version of AOD could be introduced, so that we can still enjoy the convenience while maintaining device performance.

I hope you can consider adding AOD support for the Galaxy A16 LTE in upcoming updates. Thank you for continuously improving our Galaxy experience.

mark my word, your A16 won't get AOD, regardless of your One UI version of A16, NEVER

 

only A3x series such as A36 or higher will get AOD, you bought wrong phone if you need AOD

 

it's called market segmentation, need AOD? buy at least midrange Galaxy phone, A16 considered as entry level Galaxy phone

You can't say that. AOD is a software feature on oled display. Circle to search wasn't available to all midrange phones such as the A16 during the one ui 6.1 update but here it is on one ui 7, they brought circle to search to a16 but didn't on a15
