## Description

Samsung Galaxy A42 5G, Factory Unlocked, US Version, 128GB, Black (Renewed)

Review: Some things are worth waiting for! - I appreciate the cost for the phone I picked out having such a great reputation and quality functions. Unfortunately, I had a problem with the phone and if I was in a different situation, not dealing with caregivers, nurses, doctors, PT"s making appointments constantly every week for my 93 year old mother's condition, I would not have been so upset. I wanted to pick out another phone, but I really liked the Galaxy J42 5G. Once the desertcart Representative, caught wind of that, desertcart convinced me to return the phone and have it replaced by the same seller. desertcart told me to think about giving the seller another chance to make it right. It is so important to have a way of communicating with mother's condition, I was not sure I could wait for the replacement phone delivery and what if I had a problem again. I agreed with desertcart and confirmed I would send back the phone immediately and wait for new phone. desertcart said to me that they would take 100% responsibility if the I had a problem with the phone. I saw that the new phone was ordered and shipped before they received the first phone. I am so glad I waited. I love the phone. And, when I went to plug in to charge, it showed 95% charged, which I smiled knowing before the phone was sent, someone made sure I would be happy. I put in my sim card and never had to set-up carrier information. It worked instantly and I have not had any problems and I am enjoying the connection, the speed of the phone, the touch of the phone. I love it. Thank you to seller for double checking the phone, and thank you to desertcart for standing behind your client (the seller). Donna Green
Review: LOVE MY SAMSUNG A42 PHONE 🥰 - The phone works great. It was unlocked and my sim card worked with no problems. I was able to easily copy my data from my other samsung phone. The battery is slow charging, but the phone is fast. It's beautiful, tall, and comfortable in my hand. I purchased the by all three screen protection, phone case, and phone. The Screen protection was easy to install. I cleaned it with the alcohol pad, held it by the sides, carefully aligned the top under the camera and let it drop. I used the cloth it came with to slowly swipe from side to side starting at the top, then swiped down the sides. There is no bubbles and it works great to the touch screen. I give my phone 5 stars. I love the 128 gig storage. I'm very happy with my phone. 🥰

### ⭐ They say unlocked, but they really don't mean it......
*by S***R on April 17, 2026*

This is now the *SECOND* phone that I have received from this company claining to be unlocked, but it is actually locked to Verizon. The first one at Christmas time I did not even realize it was locked because it was a gift and the person who I gave it to actually wanted and opened a verizon account and never mentioned it to me at all. I ordered another for my granddaughter who was heartbroken when her phone was broken about five days ago. She's ON a plan - and its Metro by TMobile (I know because I pay the bill for it). So now this phone arrives and she's all excited - right up until the Verizon logo screen pops up. So I called my friend about the phone at Christmas time, and he said that it had been locked to Verizon which had made it easy for him to just use them. Not happy at all, as I need to order her yet ANOTHER phone, and hope that another vendor actually means it when they say it is unlocked..... It's 2026 and we go thru some of the stupidest electronic issues that make no sense at all.
