[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I personally wouldn't recommend this specific device. The reason being its the slowest phone ever. My device is slow when unlocking, navigating from different apps, loading on google and etc. If I could return this particular phone I would. I love Samsung and I've bought many phones from the A series & S series but I'm very disappointed when it comes to this A17.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Samsung a17 because of the great sound such phone has , produces also the touchscreen on the cellular device is so smooth n appealing , Costumization is endless when it comes to Samsung.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose this Samsung phone because it had the look and feel I wanted. It's been a reliable device and part of my daily life including work. I am happy to have had it as long as I have and plan to continue buying Samsung phones in the future.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Two months and it says system up malfunction and if I am on another app when a call comes in it won't show me the accept button or the call from WhatsApp won't go through if I am playing a game.
