You don't have to spend a fortune to get a decent phone these days. Even more advanced models with 5G connectivity are relatively affordable, like the brand-new Samsung A17.

This budget-friendly Android hit shelves earlier this month and sells for just $200. Plus, Amazon just knocked 15% off the starting price, so you can put one in your pocket for a record-low $170 right now. There's no set expiration, so get your order in soon or you could miss out.

This phone certainly isn't the most powerful on the market, but it still has some impressive specs and hardware for the price. It's got 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, though that can be expanded up to 2TB with a microSD card.

It also supports some helpful new Google AI features like Circle to Search. The screen is a 6.7-inch AMOLED display, and it's got a fairly rugged IP54 weather-resistant design. Plus, Samsung guarantees six years of OS and security updates to keep your phone viable for longer.
