The new Samsung Galaxy A17 5G literally just hit store shelves on January 7th, but surprise, surprise: you can already grab the budget smartphone for free with this new T-Mobile deal. Simply add a line with "most data plans" and the carrier will give you enough promo credits over 24 months to make the device completely free, no trade-in required.
With this T-Mobile deal, "most data plans" means that even the carrier's entry-level Essentials plan will land you the free phone, in addition to the more-comprehensive Experience More and Experience Beyond plans. The catch is that you'll still need to pay the $35 activation fee and any applicable taxes on the phone, but that's it!
✅Recommended if: you're planning to switch to T-Mobile on the Essentials plan; you want a reliable Samsung phone with a great display and battery life, but you don't want to pay an arm and a leg.
❌Skip this deal if: you're interested in one of T-Mobile's more comprehensive unlimited plans; you need a phone with more than 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage.
Generally priced around 200 bucks, the Galaxy A17 5G is the latest in Samsung's A series of affordable smartphones. What this device lacks in innovation it makes up in overall value, boasting a gorgeous 6.7-inch AMOLED 90Hz display with a reliable 5,000mAh battery and fast 25W wired charging. Unlike most cheap Android phones, the A17 5G also guarantees six years of OS and security upgrades.
All in all, it's a reliable device to pair with your new T-Mobile plan. The catch is that I would only recommend grabbing the Galaxy A17 5G if you plan to sign up for the affordable Essentials plan. If you're interested in the Experience More or Experience Beyond plan, I'd skip this deal altogether and grab one of the offers below.
