Samsung Galaxy A17 5G has dropped in price to under 4 thousand. It features AMOLED, a 50Mpx main camera, and long-term support

The Samsung Galaxy A17 5G, introduced less than two months ago and launched on the Czech market in August with a price of 5,690 CZK, has now significantly dropped in price. Currently, this phone can be purchased from just 4,099 CZK, representing a saving of almost 1,600 CZK compared to the original amount. The device thus offers an even better price-to-performance ratio than at its launch.

Super AMOLED Display and Slim Body

The Samsung Galaxy A17 5G offers a 6.7-inch Super AMOLED display with Full HD+ resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate, providing a smoother image when browsing the internet or playing games. The phone has a thickness of 7.5 mm and is available in three color variants: black, gray, and blue.

Camera with Optical Image Stabilization

The back of the phone features a triple camera setup, with the main 50Mpx sensor offering optical image stabilization (OIS). This is especially useful when shooting videos or taking photos in low-light conditions, as your shots will be sharper and less blurry. It is complemented by a 5Mpx ultrawide lens and a 2Mpx macro camera for detailed shots. A 13Mpx front camera handles selfies.

Performance and Long-Term Support

The smooth operation of the system is handled by an octa-core processor clocked at 2.4 GHz, complemented by 4 GB of RAM. The internal storage of 128 GB can be expanded with a microSD card up to 2 TB. Power is supplied by a 5,000 mAh battery, which ensures all-day endurance with typical use.

Samsung has promised six generations of operating system updates and six years of security updates for this model, which is exceptional in this price category. This means the device will receive the latest features and security until 2031.

Durability and Connectivity

The phone has IP54 certification for basic dust and splash resistance. The display is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus, which provides better scratch protection. Support for 5G networks, Wi-Fi ac, Bluetooth 5.3, and NFC for contactless payments is also a given.

Is the Galaxy A17 5G Worth Considering?

With its current price of 4,099 CZK, the Samsung Galaxy A17 5G represents an interesting choice for those looking for a phone with a quality AMOLED display, decent cameras, and long software support from a reputable manufacturer. While competitors might offer more in many aspects (specifically, battery capacity, display refresh rate, or charging speed), the Samsung model can simply be considered a safe bet suitable for everyone, especially if you don’t want to experiment.
