Samsung announced the launch of the Galaxy A17 5G in the United States a couple of weeks ago. Some major carriers are carrying the device, offering it to customers for as low as $2.99 per month.

There's one carrier that has now come out with a new offer that gives you the device for no monthly charge, so free, effectively.

Metro is a prepaid wireless service provider in the United States that's owned by T-Mobile. It's one of the leading wireless carriers in its category, and it typically offers great incentives some of the leading affordable devices.

Starting today, Metro customers can get the Galaxy A17 5G for free, as long as they're on Metro's $40 per month service plan. There are no activation fees, no bill credits or activation fees. You just need to get the service plan, the device is yours for the taking.

This $40 plan includes all taxes and fee. It offers unlimited 5G data with unlimited talk and text in the United States. Since there are no contracts on this carrier, customers don't require an ID and don't need to undergo a credit check.

Those who are comfortable with buying this device via T-Mobile and not Metro, the country's third largest carrier has already been selling the Galaxy A17 5G in the United States through its website.
