Unfortunately my camera constantly fails, system ui fails, the phone is incredibly slow and gets hot when charging. Definitely looking for something else because im very disappointed

It's okay for basic needs
on September 7, 2026
Posted by: Leticia
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For basic needs it's okay. Once you start downloading things it starts to freeze and lag. I had a galaxy s25 ultra that I loved until I ran it over with my car. That's the speed I'm used to

This phone is everything I've wanted
on September 7, 2026
Posted by: strawberrySwirchbladee
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the A17 because at first it was the cheapest on there was but little did I know how great it would be. I use it alot for social media and gaming such as roblox which on here is really smooth and there is no lagging. its really great for the camera quality too as the photos and videos come out really good and I always get asked what they were shot on. it has a very user friendly just overall way to use it so nothing is confusing I recommend this to anyone who is thinking about it.
