Battery
Bought this a few weeks ago but battery doesn't last long like my last galaxy phone.

Great all round phone.
I bought this for my son as an upgrade and he said its much better than his last one on camera, performance and battery. The display is clear but as all phones the durability needs time to find out but so far so good. I will be buying one myself soon too, we are really happy with our purchase of the Samsung A17.

Top budget phone.
For the price I think this is an outstanding phone. Great camera. Excellent battery life, quick, light, good screen size. I don't need anything else in a phone. Probably my best investment this year. Using some nectar points to make it even cheaper sweetens the deal further. Very happy 😃

Great buy!
Bought to replace an older Samsung Galaxy where the battery was starting to fail and the internal storage was almost full. At a time when many mobile phones are over £1000, this was amazing value at £169 and has five times the internal storage of my previous phone ... so I really didn't need to add the memory card to boost the storage! Transferring everything from my old phone was so easy with the included Samsung Smart Switch app. 100% pleased with my purchase
