If you’re in the market for a new phone that won’t break the bank, this Straight Talk deal is for you. The carrier is offering the Samsung Galaxy A17 5G for free when you activate a new line on the Silver Unlimited plan or higher.
This offer runs through Oct. 18, but only while supplies last. Keep that in mind, because there’s no guarantee it’ll actually be available that long.
The Samsung Galaxy A17 5G has a large 6.7-inch display with a fast 90Hz refresh rate for buttery-smooth scrolling. As the name suggests, support for 5G connectivity ensures that you won’t be left waiting for websites to load, even when you’re out and about. When home, the dual-band Wi-Fi takes over, while 128GB of storage is plenty for your favorite apps. It’s also where you’ll save photos and videos taken by the 50-megapixel main camera. That’s joined by 5-megapixel ultra-wide and 2-megapixel macro cameras.
Straight Talk’s Silver Unlimited plan includes unlimited data, talk and text, as well as 10GB of hotspot data. International calls and texts to Canada and Mexico are also included in your unlimited bundles. Just keep in mind there’s a limit to two per customer and this offer cannot be combined with any other.

Why this deal matters
You don’t have to spend a fortune on a new phone these days. The same doesn’t always apply to cell service, but this deal offers both with all of the features and unlimited data that you’re likely to need. Just remember that this deal might not be around for long if Straight Talk sells out before the official end date.
