Community Reviews

This is a stacked Galaxy S26 Ultra deal that hinges on a trade in, the $300 Amazon limited time rebate, and a $200 Amazon gift card. The rebate is tied to the trade in flow and is paid to the original payment method after verification, while the trade in value lands as an Amazon gift card. The strongest effective prices come from qualifying phones like a Pixel 8 Pro or Pixel 9 Pro, but the 256GB version and the 9 percent cash back claim have been inconsistent in checkout. Trade in rejections and missing rebate displays add friction, so the appeal is mostly for shoppers comfortable with the extra steps.

  • The $300 limited-time rebate is reportedly sent to the original payment method after verification.

  • The trade-in value is reportedly added as an Amazon.com gift card for immediate use after verification.

  • The deal can stack multiple credits, including a $200 Amazon gift card and Prime Visa cash back.

  • The $300 trade-in bonus can appear as an additional line inside the trade-in screen for qualifying phones.

  • The Prime Visa cash-back percentage may show 5% or 6% instead of the advertised 9%.

  • Trade-in outcomes can be rejected or turned into return labels, creating uncertainty about the promised deal value.

  • The $300 rebate may not display until the trade-in process reaches the final prompt.

    Cyber_Pandaatlantavip

  • The effective price can be misleading because a large portion comes from an Amazon gift card rather than cash.

Just tried iPhone 11 64 GB, and it qualifies (300+75).

I did not see any $300 rebate, and Best Buy is selling it directly for $1,099.

Getting just 6% for slow ship here in KC. Trying to decide if it's worth upgrading from the Pixel 9 Pro and might try waiting another year. I only have a 128gb model and constantly using ~115gb's of storage which is annoying. Not sure if I want to go to a much larger phone again though.

I'm kinda in same boat. I have pixel 7 with 128gbs and I hate it. Now that I have kids I'm always at max storage. This is tempting.

IMO if you can afford it, go for it. The trade in + bonus is a good deal (I upvoted the thread personally). I might do it as I've been having other issues with my phone recently (android bugs), but yeah... have to decide.

No trade in offer for a S25 Ultra. 😞 I'm wanting a new phone, but I'll wait.

Would a metro phone be classified as T-Mobile or other? I see the iPhone 13 has a trade in value of $135 + $300 rebate.

Also not seeing 9% cash back with Prime Visa, only 6%.

$1299 + $110.50 tax - $77.94 Prime Visa cash back - $300 rebate - $105 S21 Ultra trade-in - $200 Amazon GC = $726.56

Not bad...

can you trade in this phone even though it is not unlocked and has not past the 60 days activation?
That phone is Verizon phone. After turning on the phone, you will see Verizon logo on the screen.
EDIT: The trade-in rejected without any email. The trade-in phone being returning to me.

I think only after you get to the final prompt, then it shows you the amount of trade in + rebate. For some reasons, I cannot post the screenshot here to show.

Seems the $300 rebate is only with trade-in. However I'm not seeing where to get 9% cashback (with Amazon Prime Credit Card).
