1. At first I had to figure out how to get my work email to play with Samsung.com. My company has access to Perks At Work, but I was signed into my own personal acct in Samsung.com. I created a new Samsung.com acct with my work email and it immediately noticed my work and gave me workplace related discounts.
2. I tried doing everything on a desktop browser and was seeing work related discounts but not all of the ones that others were seeing. Chat wasn't helpful and said there weren't any promo codes to be had.
3. I noticed others commenting to use the Shop Samsung app, so I did. I didn't immediately notice additional discounts UNTIL I actually clicked all the way through to "Checkout". Additional discounts show up on the final page. Also, I noticed that some of the links take you to a "pre configured" page which automatically adds the item to the cart, doesnt allow for trade in, and is a higher price. You need to go to the main selection page that lets you add the trade in, decline protection, etc ,to get the full discount in the cart at the end of checkout.
4. I ran a bunch of different permutations and was able to replicate (all with trade in of Watch 4) the $61.91 for Watch 5 44mm LTE, $111.55 for Watch 6 44m BT, $152.99 for Watch 5 Pro 45 mm BT, and $178.49 for Watch 6 Classic 47mm BT, before tax. Screenshots below.
5. Then I had to decide what to upgrade to. After some online research of the different models, I ended up choosing the Watch 5 Pro, because it fixes the major issues I have with my Watch 4 - The 5 Pro has the biggest battery of all the models, titanium shell for weight and ruggedness, and dual GPS. I like having my watch all day, but especially when outdoors hiking, biking, etc. The 5 Pro is the only one that has GPX track capabilities built in, which I already utilize on my phone when outdoors. The Watch 4 also never lasted a good day with GPS on, and barely lasted a day of use with everything turned off. I really wanted the rotating bezel of the 6 Classic, but the bigger battery of the 5 Pro won out. Interesting thing I did notice is that the Watch 5 Pro WITH the new D Band was SIGNIFICANTLY more expensive, I think it came out to $225 before tax and after trade in. By comparison, changing to the dual color sport band, I was able to get the price to the aforementioned $152.99. Just keep that in mind.

But wait.. the GW6 40mm is only $123 after trade-in. ($8 more) They give me a promotional $125 trade-in on that one, same as you get for GW3 or GW4.
So be sure to check your pricing on the GW6 [samsung.com]. Note that the 4G/LTE option is $40 more than the bluetooth/wifi only option.
Thanks

If this sort of deal comes up for the watch6, after the watch7 comes out AND it applies to watch4, then I could see doing it. But to go from a watch4 to a watch5 WHEN the watch6 is out, seems like a bad deal.

Really the only reason to do the trade is for new battery, 1 year of extra support being newer, sapphire crystal, slightly bigger battery, and higher trade in value in the future. Everything else about the Watch5 is the same as the Watch4.
