Common Galaxy A36 issues we check at inspection

  • Screen scratches and scuffs. The PLS LCD display on the Galaxy A36 5G is prone to surface scratches and scuffs from everyday use, especially without a screen protector.
  • Battery health significantly degraded. The 5000mAh battery, while large, will show significant degradation after 2-3 years of heavy use, leading to shorter battery life.
  • Plastic frame and back casing wear. The plastic frame and back can develop scuffs, scratches, and even cracks, particularly around the corners due to drops.
  • Charging port issues. Lint and debris accumulation in the USB-C port can lead to intermittent charging or data transfer problems.
  • Software glitches or performance lag. As the device ages and receives software updates, performance can degrade, leading to occasional lag or minor software bugs.
  • Camera lens scratches. The rear camera lenses can get scratched, affecting photo quality.
