Samsung has added a new member to its popular Galaxy A series — the Samsung Galaxy A17 5G. Launched globally, this device blends style and performance at a price that won’t break the bank. Right from the first look, the large 6.7-inch Super AMOLED screen grabs your attention with its crisp visuals and smooth 90Hz refresh rate.
Running on Android 15 with One UI 7, the Galaxy A17 5G offers a clean and modern software experience. Samsung’s new Exynos 1330 chip powers the phone, giving it enough speed for everyday tasks, from messaging to video streaming. Whether you’re switching apps or browsing the web, the phone handles it all smoothly.
On the back, there’s a dual-camera setup, headlined by a 50MP main camera. Photos come out clear and detailed, even in tricky lighting. The second lens is a 2MP macro camera, perfect for close-up shots. For selfies and video calls, a 13MP front camera sits neatly in the display notch.
Why the Samsung Galaxy A17 5G Is a Solid Pick for 2025
Samsung didn’t cut corners on battery either. A massive 5,000mAh battery powers the A17 5G, backed by 25W fast charging. This means you can easily go a full day — or more — without needing a recharge. Charging is done via USB Type-C, keeping it modern and convenient.
The phone has a side-mounted fingerprint sensor that unlocks quickly. It’s also rated IP54, so it can handle a bit of dust or a splash of water — good for those who are always on the move. And for music lovers, the headphone jack is still here.
In terms of storage, the Samsung Galaxy A17 5G comes in two variants — 4GB RAM with 128GB storage and 6GB RAM with 256GB. It also supports microSD cards if you need more space. Everything stays smooth thanks to the Mali-G68 MP2 GPU, which handles basic gaming and graphics with ease.
Connectivity is strong too. You get 5G support, dual 4G VoLTE, Bluetooth 5.3, Wi-Fi 5, and more. Whether you’re on a call or streaming your favorite show, the experience is fast and stable.
Samsung has priced the Galaxy A17 5G at around EUR 239 (approximately ₹24,000 in India). It’s already available for pre-order in select countries and will launch soon in other global markets. The phone comes in three colors: Black, Blue, and Grey — all of which look sleek and minimal.
