QA Note: OP's $150 price is for the S9 Ultra with 12GB RAM, 256GB SSD and using a trade-in of an S8 Ultra. Your price will vary with other trade-in models. If OOS for shipping, see if you can find a location near you for pickup instead.

True value for these tablets is a lot less than the MSRP.
After trying to like Android tablets and OLED display of s7+ I decided to move back to Apple. I am trying to sell a excellent condition s7+ and keyboard cover case on ebay for around $350 as a bundle or $299 for tablet only, but so far no interest. Luckily I had not paid MSRP which is pretty inflated.
What made you go back to Apple? I still use Samsung tablets because of the OLED and true dark mode for web browsing. If you got the Ultra, the biggest screen, the split app screen feature is nice too.
Always tempted to trade up for an Ultra, but it just seems way too large to be used practically as a handheld tablet.
As someone who upgraded from plus to ultra a year ago. Yes it is big but after a month of using you will never go back no matter what. You will be spoiled, go for it and remember this in a couple of months.
Samsung refund me the $50 it went down in price from few days ago. Thanks for posting.
Did you get the refund through chat? I purchased May 8. But my deal included the free buds. Would be nice to have them match this. Nice find OP. $150 is lowest ever I believe.
iwheela
My S8 ultra works fine so i dont know if its worth upgrading since there are minor changes with S9 ultra. Is $150 really worth to upgrade or wait longer to see if it gets to $100?

Um s7 is almost 4 years old , not getting updates. You can probably sell it for $250 max. The keyboard has no value.
How much would a 4 year old iPad go for? They don't do much better
Hmm, that's tempting... I picked up an open box S8 for 262 (280 with tax) to do the S9 plus, but this would let me upgrade to S9U for 250 (plus tax), for a total of about 550 to get a S9 ultra.... but I'm pretty sure I don't need it and should just grab one of the snapdragon Surface Pros in a year or so.
I bought mine during the release the real estate on this thing is HUGE I use mine daily but it is a workout! There is no sim card slot for the US version and if I had to do it again I would buy a smaller size with a sim card slot in it, just my two cents.

Did S9 get more upgrades promised or is it the same policy plus one year?
Instructions on the order says NOT to bring in the tablet in store. I will receive instructions on trade in later. Most likely just mail it in.
