The Samsung Galaxy A 2017 series survived a lot of rumors and leaks in the past, and recently just before the official launch on January 5, Samsung officially announced the trio of devices which include Galaxy A3 (2017), Galaxy A5 (2017), and the Galaxy A7 (2017).
But there was no word on the pricing, and since there was a rumor that Samsung may launch the devices in Europe, most of the rumors about pricing seem to be somewhat close, if not exact enough.
Samsung is planning to sell the Galaxy A3 (2017) and the Galaxy A5 (2017) in Europe at a price of 329 euro and 429 euro respectively. And the biggest of the trio, Galaxy A7 (2017) will not see its place in the market and will not be sold in Europe.
All of these devices pack an upgraded hardware, 7.9mm thickness, Water/Dust proof design, sAMOLED displays, Fingerprint home button, 16MP camera combo on A5 and A7, and LTE Cat. 6 connectivity.
