After rolling out in a few overseas markets, Samsung has now brought the Samsung Galaxy A17 5G to India, with its glossy finish catching the light on store shelves. Built for the mid-range crowd, the smartphone blends a fair price with sharp, modern AI features—like a camera that snaps crisp night shots.
Features and Specifications: Samsung Galaxy A17 5G
Blending intelligence with elegance, the Galaxy A17 5G offers AI tools like Gemini Live and Circle to Search, highlighted by a polished triple-camera setup on the back. The system includes a 50MP primary lens with OIS, a 5MP ultrawide sensor for expansive shots, and a 2MP macro lens capable of capturing intricate details. Up front, there’s a sharp 13MP camera ready for selfies, quick enough to catch a grin before it fades. But the device can’t shoot 4K video—you’re limited to lower resolutions such as 1080p.
A sprawling 6.7-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED screen brings colors to life at 90Hz, while Gorilla Glass Victus keeps scratches at bay. A slim fingerprint scanner sits neatly along the side. At only 7.5mm thick and 192 grams, the phone slips easily into your pocket, earning its title as the slimmest in its class. It’s rated IP54, so it can handle a dusty workbench or a quick splash of water.
The device runs on an Exynos 1330 chipset, paired with 6GB or 8GB of RAM and up to 256GB of storage—enough room for thousands of photos or playlists. Right out of the box, it’s loaded with One UI 7 on Android 15, backed by Samsung Knox security that locks things down tight. The company’s offering six years of OS upgrades and six years of security patches—enough to keep it running smoothly well into the future—making it one of the most future-ready devices in this price range.
The phone carries a 5,000mAh battery and supports 25W fast charging, letting you top it up in the time it takes to brew a cup of coffee. You can pick up the Galaxy A17 5G in Awesome Black, Awesome Blue, or Awesome Gray, with prices set at ₹18,999 for 6GB + 128GB, ₹20,499 for 8GB + 128GB, and ₹23,499 for 8GB + 256GB. If you pay with an HDFC or SBI credit card on Samsung’s official site, you’ll instantly save ₹1,000.
