Samsung has officially made its Galaxy A17 and Galaxy A17 5G smartphones available for purchase in the UK, with pricing and availability details now confirmed. The new additions to Samsung’s mid-range Galaxy A series are designed to offer an affordable upgrade for consumers seeking reliable performance, modern design, and 5G connectivity.
Samsung Galaxy A17 5G Price and Availability
The Samsung Galaxy A17 5G is priced at £199 in the UK, which roughly converts to ₹21,000 in India. While the exact India pricing is yet to be announced, Samsung is expected to keep it competitive within the ₹20,000–₹23,000 segment, targeting budget-conscious 5G smartphone buyers.
The standard Galaxy A17 (4G variant) will also be sold at an accessible price point, making it a strong choice for those who don’t necessarily require 5G connectivity.
Both models are now available through Samsung.com as well as major retail stores in the UK and select global markets.

Why the Galaxy A17 Series Matters for India
India is one of Samsung’s most important markets, especially in the mid-range segment where competition from brands like Realme, Redmi, iQOO, and Vivo is fierce. The Galaxy A17 5G, with its affordable pricing and Samsung’s trusted brand value, is likely to become a popular choice for first-time 5G users and students.
Given Samsung’s strategy in India, the Galaxy A17 5G price in India could be slightly different from the UK market. If priced below ₹22,000, it would compete directly with the likes of Realme Narzo 70x 5G, Redmi Note 14 5G, and iQOO Z9.
