Easy to use and a good price for a basic phone.
I purchased the Samsung A17 5G for my wife because she was using an old Diro phone which had limited abilities and she is not technically gifted. She does use a Samsung I pad so the transition to the phone was relatively easy. The phone is easy to use and has large text with 1 tab phone contacts. Having read reviews about this phone battery life being short I can honestly say that it last a long time for the purpose it was purchased for phone calls. I suspect the short battery life may be if the phone is used for extended Internet use but for basic phone use it is fine. The price was also very good for a basic mobile phone. It can be a little slow but it is not a major problem.

My new A17 5G phone
I like my new phone, the display icons and font are much clearer and easy to read. The battery is holding its charge which my old phone was not. Performance is quick and clear. I have not yet tried the camera but I am sure it will be good.
