Galaxy S26: Trade-in deals and new perks await!
17 Mar
Summary
- Get up to $720 trade-in value for your old phone.
- Receive a $150 Samsung credit for S26 Ultra purchase.
- New privacy display restricts side-angle viewing.
Samsung's latest Galaxy S26 smartphone lineup has officially launched, with several promotions extending beyond the initial pre-order period. Customers can still trade in older devices to receive up to $720 off the Galaxy S26 Ultra, a reduction from the previous maximum of $900. For those without a trade-in, Samsung is offering a $150 credit on the S26 Ultra, matching the pre-order offer.
New deals include a 15% discount on the recently released Galaxy Buds4 and Buds4 Pro. The standard Buds4 are now $153 (down from $180), and the Buds4 Pro are $212 (down from $250). These accessory discounts can be combined with the $150 credit, significantly reducing the cost of upgrading.
Hardware revisions in the S26 series are measured, maintaining similar battery capacities and storage tiers to the previous generation. However, the 1TB Galaxy S26 Ultra model now includes 16GB of RAM, an increase from the S25 Ultra's 12GB. A notable addition is the integrated Privacy Display, which restricts visibility from side angles, controllable via system settings.
