Samsung Galaxy A17 5G
on August 28, 2026
Posted by: BrokenMax
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Samasung Galaxy A17 5G, because so far it's been the only phone to not give me such hard times and it's not too much to get as a first car.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose this product simply because of the awesome camera quality and the extra features. One of the many extra features that I love is the Face ID to unlock this phone as well as the Fingerprint sensor to unlock it also!

HORRIBLE
on August 28, 2026
Posted by: MTELLO
So disappointed with Samsung forcing me to use Google Messages.. I dont get notifications I cant change the notification sound and the screen doesnt light up when a message comes thru on this Samsung Galaxy A17.. This phone is horrible.. Ive been using Samsung phones for the last 15 years and this one is the worst.. Samsung Messages was by far much better
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello MTELLO,
Thank you for sharing your experience! The Galaxy A17 5G features a large Super AMOLED display, a long-lasting battery, and expandable storage. Performance may vary based on your usage and the number of active applications.
If you're having issues with notification sounds and alerts in Google Messages, you can resolve them by unlocking a hidden menu in your Samsung system settings. While we have discontinued the old Samsung Messages app, you can regain full control over your notifications with a few simple adjustments.
To do this, open the Settings app, tap on Notifications, then select Advanced settings. From there, turn on the "Manage notification categories" toggle switch for each app.
We hope this information is helpful. We appreciate your feedback and support, and thank you for choosing Samsung!
