Black Friday Deal: Samsung Galaxy A17 Now Just £139

With Black Friday fast approaching, Samsung’s latest budget Android phone is proving to be a fantastic deal. The Galaxy A17 5G and its 4G counterpart, launched a few weeks ago, may not have had a grand unveiling like the Unpacked event, but they are consistently among Samsung’s top-selling phones.

What’s the Deal?

The Galaxy A17 5G typically retails for £199 for the sole model available in the UK. However, shoppers can already enjoy a £30 discount (15% off) on all three color options, with blue being the standout choice.

Similar to the ongoing deal for the Galaxy Tab A11, this discounted price for the A17 is widely available across various retailers. It’s unlikely to drop lower for Black Friday, but there are no guarantees.

You can find this deal at the official Samsung store, Amazon, Currys, Argos, Very, John Lewis, Laptops Direct, and AO.

Why Buy It?

Recently reviewed, the Galaxy A17 5G, which hit the market in August, received a commendable 7/10 rating. While it lacks significant innovation compared to its predecessor, it remains a top contender in the budget phone segment.

Priced similarly to its predecessor, the A17 boasts minor design enhancements and main camera stabilization but remains virtually unchanged in terms of performance.

The device, with its sleek design and large colorful display, offers impressive value at the discounted price. The improved camera stabilization ensures better photo quality, and the battery life can last up to two days.

Although secondary camera performance may be lacking, the phone is well-suited for everyday tasks. Samsung’s user-friendly One UI interface, coupled with an impressive six years of software support, makes the A17 a worthwhile investment.

For those seeking longevity and value, the A17’s six-year support plan sets it apart from budget competitors that offer shorter support periods.

For those willing to spend a bit more, the CMF Phone 2 Pro, our top pick for budget phones, is also on sale. For a comprehensive list of the best phone and accessory deals this Black Friday, stay tuned.
