Analysts were warning about this \u2013 entry-level smartphones are the most sensitive to increases in component costs. And we\u2019re now seeing the effects of the RAM and storage shortages as Samsung India has quietly increased the prices of its entry-level models.<\/p>\n
This affects the low-end (06, 07 and 17) models in the Galaxy A, F and M series. Both 4G and 5G versions too. Here is a table that shows the changes for each affected model (some of which have several RAM and storage options).<\/p>\n
The new prices push the top-specced Galaxy A17 (5G) over \u20b930,000, which is on the pricey side for what the phone offers. Samsung still has offers like up to 10% cashback with select bank cards and the potential for up to 10% extra. Plus, there is a \u20b92,000 \u201cfirst purchase benefit\u201d if you use Samsung.com or the Shop App for the first time. And there\u2019s always the trade-in route.<\/p>\n
