Samsung fans in the US can finally get their hands on the budget-friendly Samsung Galaxy A17 5G and Galaxy Tab A11+ 5G. While these devices have been available in the UK and Europe for some time now, their US release was uncertain until recently.
The Samsung Galaxy A17 5G made its debut in the UK and Europe in August, boasting a 6.7-inch FHD+ 90Hz Super AMOLED display, an Exynos 1330 processor, and a 5,000mAh battery with 25W charging. The camera setup includes a 50MP main camera, a 5MP ultra-wide camera, and a 2MP macro camera. Despite being a solid budget Android phone, critics noted that it didn’t offer much of an upgrade from its predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy A16 5G.
On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy Tab A11+ arrived in Europe in November with an 11-inch FHD+ LCD display, Quad speakers with Dolby Atmos, a Mediatek Dimensity 7300 processor, and a 7040mAh battery with 25W charging. Reviews described it as a functional and user-friendly budget tablet, although it didn’t bring any groundbreaking features to the table.
After much anticipation, Samsung US announced the availability of the Samsung Galaxy A17 5G for $199.99 starting from January 7th. The following day, on January 8th, the Samsung Galaxy Tab A11+ became available for purchase at $249.99. Both devices are now easily accessible for consumers across the US.
For those looking for affordable yet reliable smartphone and tablet options, the Samsung Galaxy A17 5G and Galaxy Tab A11+ provide decent performance and features without breaking the bank. Whether you’re in the market for a new phone or a tablet, these Samsung devices offer a compelling value proposition.
