[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My galaxy A17 i was excited to get this phone as I am a true fan of Samsung but to my dismay this is the worst phone I have ever had in my life!!!!! It's slow i mean slow my system ui is constantly crashing no matter where I am the internet signal is always low and it's not my carrier it's the phone the phone e glitches and some time I open apps and they close by themselves I took it to get looked at thinking maybe I got a virus nothing is found and the phone continues to have issues.im really upset im stuck with this phone because honestly it's been nothing but a let down I understand it's a lower end phone but my wife's lower end phone never has the issues I have with this phone oh and the battery lif on this phone is total garbage honestly with all yhe Samsung products in my home I feel like Samsung should give me a better model phone for all my trouble with both t b is and the A16 that I owned.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Galaxy AI is top tier..!! Buying my GalaxyA17 was the best decision I could have ever made because not only does it run wonderfully but the storage capacity is great! I absolutely love love love how big the the screen is and the camera takes pictures that are out of this world.! Let's just say if i were to go back 10 years of my life this exact phone would most definitely be the phone I'd dream of! Thank you Samsung....
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Didn't even pass a month before it started lagging & literally, unresponsive. Thought i was going crazy, but nope. Other's whom had purchased this series are ALL saying the same thing. Skip it, save a little more & purchase a top of the line series (S series). Samsung says its an affordable series, but you might as well wait till you're ready.
