Battery drains.
I bought it new i like the phone but the battery seems to drain quickly which isn't great as I rely on it for my libre sensor app (diabetic device) also it seems to feel very warm when charging.

Relieved to have this very nice latest version
My phone ... the previous version ..was stolen. It was in my handbag. Communication to block the phone was very good and prompt, and very helpful for ordering this one. What is the greatest relief is that all my pictures and data were saved. I was glad to see the on line apps that I use regularly. A very nice phone. Thank you for your help.

Yes you can keep your same number, as this A17 5G is SIM Free, so any Nano SIM can be inserted. If your current SIM isn't Nano, please reach out to your Network Provider, who will be able to port your number over to the right size SIM. Hope this helps, Carol!
To transfer data from a smartphone to the A17 5G, we would recommend using our SmartSwitch app, which makes data transfer a breeze. You can find out more about this here: https://www.samsung.com/uk/apps/smart-switch/...

Hope this helps, Angel!
Thank you for your question. We are pleased to confirm that the Galaxy A17 can be used in Spain. When travelling, we recommend ensuring that data roaming is enabled on your device and checking with your network provider that roaming services are included in your plan, as availability and charges may vary depending on your contract. We hope this helps.
Hello Nick.
After checking with our supplier, they have advised for SIM Free Samsung Galaxy A17 5G 128GB AI Mobile Phone - Black.
Yes you can buy a phone here in UK, but with major network restrictions. You can physically bring a UK-purchased Samsung Galaxy A17 5G to the United States and use a US SIM card, but its daily performance will heavily depend on which American carrier you choose. So as we suggest, it is better to purchase a device from there so there will be no restrictions in using carrier network.
Thank you for using Q & A.
Yes, as long as you insert a UK SIM card and make a phone call of at least 5 minutes in length while in the UK, the region lock will be removed from the A17 and you will be able to use it abroad. Please note that software updates may be delayed while in the USA as they are distributed in collaboration with UK Network providers. You also may not be able to receive the same level of warranty support in the USA, should you require it. Hope this helps, James!
The A17 came out in the United Kingdom in August 2025. We hope this helps.
Hi Dfyr,

This does not have a 3.5mm jack plug.
Thank you for using Q&A
Please perform a force restart of your phone by pressing and holding the Power and Volume Down buttons together for around 10 seconds. Please reach out to Samsung Support who can look into this further. You can find their contact details and opening hours here: https://www.samsung.com/uk/support/contact/...
Hope this helps.
We can confirm that the Galaxy A17 supports microSD cards up to 2TB. To insert one, first make sure the phone is powered off. Then use the ejector tool included in the box to gently press into the small hole next to the SIM and microSD tray. When the tray pops out, carefully remove it, place your microSD card in the larger slot with the gold contacts facing downwards, and then reinsert the tray back into the device. If you need any further assistance with this process, please feel free to contact our Support Teams.
