Community Reviews

This is a glitchy Samsung EDU and EPP offer for the S26 Ultra 512GB, best when the PayPal150 code, trade in, and the $100 accessory credit all line up. The strongest outcomes land around $279 to $750 before tax, with some orders also including free case, charger, screen film, or Buds. The S25 Ultra trade in appears to unlock the deepest pricing, while other trade ins often price higher. Checkout is inconsistent, with login loops, coupon drops, color restrictions, and tax or trade in issues that can push the total up. A finicky deal that rewards persistence and the right account.

Common Questions (6)

  • Incognito or InPrivate browsing, clearing cache/cookies, and using a Chromium-based browser or Firefox with cookies enabled can help. Some shoppers also had to change the password when prompted, or use a VPN to a U.S. location before clicking the blue banner's Buy now button.

  • Samsung checkout can recalculate the offer, so the cart price may jump from the advertised amount to a higher total at final checkout. Taxes may also be charged on the full pre-discount amount in some states, which can push the total well above $279.99.

  • Yes, the no-trade-in deal still appears to work for some accounts and colors, especially when the blue banner or offer page is triggered correctly. The 512GB model can show $899.99 before PAYPAL150, which drops it to about $749.99 pre-tax.

  • Not reliably. Several military-account attempts stayed around $949 to $1,000 before tax, while EDU/EPP accounts were able to reach the lower promo pricing.

    MediumMosleyBobbeebeeFreeCakeCuriousCJ

  • Yes. The $279.99 price is tied to trading in a Galaxy S25 Ultra, and the PayPal150 code must be applied in cart with PayPal as the payment method. Other Galaxy S25 models have lower trade-in value, so they do not reach the same total.

  • Add the S26 Ultra to cart first without trade-in, then apply the trade-in inside the cart. If the discount disappears, re-enter PAYPAL150 on the later checkout screen and continue with PayPal.

Same here. Wondering if it dead or not.
Unless it's genuinely YMMV and it varies per account, I'm pretty sure its dead, the screenshot in the second post shows a significantly lower price (i.e. the deal here).

Nope deal is not dead. I just tried and it is working with $150 off via PAYPAL150. Too bad only 2 feminine colors are discounted.

for all of you having issues with this deal, I think they dropped the price super low for either some accounts or small periods of time, at the regular price of $1224 or 1150 for the purple or pink 512 models, the lowest you can get is $479 with s25U trade in at those prices ($720 trade in discount)

With S22 ultra, I get 688. Once I add the trade-in, the promotional discount of 400 is reduced to 200.

Horrible website as usual. I'm getting $699 with S23 Ultra trade it, jumps to $900+ at final checkout page. Diff prices on website and app.
They should use Galaxy AI tech to fix their own website and app.

I just figured it out. I added s26 ultra to my cart without the trade in added the PayPal code. Then add the trade in after its added to the cart.

Thanks OP!
The website is very glitchy.

Steps I took:
-Added the Cobalt Violet S26 Ultra 512 gb
-clicked on trade in and selected Samsung and S25 ultra
-confirmed trade in
-on the next screen, you'll see offers for up to $100 off. I added a bunch of accessories, air tag white, air tag black, 15w charger, 25w charger, transparent film, and silicon case black with magnetic wireless charger 45w travel adapter grey
-on the last screen, you'll see that the black case, magnetic wireless charger with 45w travel adapter, 15w power adapter are all free. The smarttag 2 will be $6.67.
-remove the other accessories that have a $$ to them
-add paypal150 and checkout

My total was $310.31

is there even any point in upgrading from the s25 ultra? Don't care for privacy glass . Battery seems similar, lowlight pictures seems the same despite upgraded sensor.
