Camera Capabilities<br />The triple rear camera includes a 50MP main sensor with OIS, a 5MP ultra-wide, and a 2MP depth lens. Daylight photos are vibrant and punchy, while low-light shots benefit from OIS. Selfies are decent for social media, but video tops out at 1080p. Overall, cameras are reliable for everyday use.

Battery Life<br />The 5000mAh battery easily lasts a full day and a half with moderate use. Even heavy users can get through a day comfortably.

Verdict: Buy or Skip?<br />If you want a dependable Samsung phone with a great screen, solid build, reliable cameras, and long-term software support, the A17 is a strong pick under Rs 20,000. But if faster charging, high-end performance, or a modern punch-hole design matters most, rivals like Vivo T4 or CMF Phone 2 Pro may be better.
