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.
EDU or EPP members who can follow a finicky checkout flow, because the full discount can appear after reapplying the code and choosing PayPal.
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.
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.
You can get around it but its not straight forward.
What I have done to make it work:
1) Try to log in normally (not sure if important)
2) Open incognito and sign into id.me and find search for the samsung offer (make sure its the one you qualify for) and go there - it will transfer you to samsung
3) My offer page is empty so then I go to regular samsung website and find the product and it automatically changes to the offer price.
Samsung website has been broken for over a month now and their "support" is a joke. Its ridiculous for any company let alone one as big as samsung

Login loops for me on phone and desktop. What a joke. You'd think selling was something they would focus on...
I just tried it with education account and it shows me 1149 without trade in. The account does education discount banner. Can anyone please help with instructions on how to get it? Thank you so much!
These deals should be consolidated in one post. 512gb (violet) for $750 or 1tb (sky blue) for $919. Both prices with no trade.
I originally got the 1Tb and buds4 pro for $1104 total after tax, but I'm returning and getting the 512gb with same buds for $919 after tax (I have two EDU accounts).
