The Samsung Galaxy A17 and A07 Arrive in Malaysia
Samsung has officially launched its latest budget-friendly smartphones in Malaysia, introducing the new Samsung Galaxy A17 and Galaxy A07 LTE. The devices aim to bring premium features from the flagship Galaxy S series to a wider audience, combining essential AI-powered capabilities with enhanced durability and security.
Key Specifications and Features

The Samsung Galaxy A17 series is a standout, incorporating several “fan-favourite” features, including Gemini activation by holding the side button and Gemini Live for voice-activated, hands-free interactions. The A17 also features Circle to Search with Google, offering a seamless way to access information directly from the screen.
For photography and entertainment, the Samsung Galaxy A17 boasts a triple-camera system, led by a 50MP wide-angle lens, complemented by a 5MP Ultrawide and a 2MP sensor. It also includes enhanced optical image stabilisation for shake-free videos and brighter low-light photos compared to its predecessor. Both the A17 and A07 models feature a 90Hz refresh rate and an upgraded application processor for smooth performance in gaming and video streaming. The Galaxy A17 specifically sports a large 6.7-inch Super AMOLED display. Both devices are equipped with a long-lasting battery and support 25W Fast Charging.
In terms of reliability, Samsung is promising six generations of Android OS upgrades and six years of security updates for both models, ensuring they remain up-to-date and secure for years to come. Security is further bolstered with features like Samsung Knox Vault, Theft Protection, and Auto Blocker.
Durable Design

Built for longevity, both the Samsung Galaxy A17 and A07 feature a lighter yet stronger Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) rear body. The Galaxy A17 takes durability a step further with Corning Gorilla Glass Victus+ on its front display. Both phones also come with an IP54 rating for dust and water resistance. The A17 is notably slim at 7.5mm thick, while the A07 is just 7.6mm thick.
