The itel P17 is one of the recent smartphones from the company to launch in Kenya. The phone is available in retail stores for Ksh 6,770. This is one of the most affordable smartphones from the company available locally and it is also one of the cheapest smartphones out there. You can get the P17 online through Jumia and offline through most smartphone retailers.
The itel P17 is an entry level phone and that is evident from its specifications. This is the smartphone you get if you want one to handle the basic tasks and it still gives you access to the internet. It does compete with the Neon series of devices from Safaricom that have dominated the segment under 5K.
Back to the P17, it can also be a good second smartphone for anyone who wants an extra device but is not willing to spend so much money on one. This phone does a good job and also comes with Android 11 Go Edition which should work well with the phone’s entry level hardware.
