    Yesterday, Samsung unveiled three new handsets as part of its Galaxy A series — the Galaxy A3 (2017), Galaxy A5 (2017) and Galaxy A7 (2017) — and now residents in the UK can pre-order the first two devices through independent retailer MobileFun. Unfortunately, though, it doesn't look like the latter will be making its way to Europe.

    Pricing starts at £299 for the 16GB variant of the Galaxy A3 (2017) and tops out at £399 for the 32GB model of the Galaxy A5 (2017), which lines up perfectly with the pricing the South Korean company revealed in the announcement post it shared on its press portal.

    MobileFun is also selling a whole host of different accessories for the Galaxy A3 (2017) and Galaxy A5 (2017), including the official S View covers. Although, they aren't expected to be in stock for the next 2-3 weeks (roughly around the same time the handsets will start shipping).
