When first booting it up, it was lagging really badly. Did bare minimum for set up then factory reset and it still doesn’t work properly. Bought new straight from Verizon website. Do not recommend.

I have to be updated every other week

Samsung Sorrow

Lisa G . 15 days ago

I purchased the Samsung Galaxy A17 outright for $200.00 when my Samsung A03 stopped working due to a bad Google Maps app. Two days after I bought it, it went into " emergency mode" only. I had to talk to Verizon tech in Florida for 30 minutes to do a hard reset on the phone for an "e-sim" . When I purchased the phone, I was never told it needed a sim card. I can only surmise that Verizon is not training its' employees properly and that Samsung is selling inferior products. The phone appears to be working right now, but we'll see.

Good Phone

KarL1961 . 1 month ago

The phone works well and has a good camera. I used to be able to play games while watching a YouTube video in a reduced picture on my previous phone. This phone can only do one thing at a time.

You get what you pay for

Nickname4what . 1 month ago

I can't play a game and listen to you tube. My camera overheats immediately. I'm glad that I bought it outright so I can cancel it as soon as I can order my replacement galaxy.
