Save up to $1,120 on Galaxy S26 Ultra this weekend with our exclusive credit – up to $230 in extra savings

The new Samsung Galaxy S26 lineup debuted earlier this week and the pre-order deals are flying. There are offers live on the Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26+, and Galaxy S26 Ultra right now, and a lot of them, so this morning we are going to break them all down to ensure you score the best possible price/value on the setup you’re after. You will now score an exclusive $30 credit with pre-orders when clicking through our links, as well as a bonus $50 off discount code, on top of the deals you can already score. All of the details await below. 

Samsung Galaxy S26/+ and Ultra trade-ins

When it comes to trade-ins, it appears the official Samsung site is your best option. Not only is it offering up to $900 in savings on Galaxy S26 Ultra, $700 on S26+, and $500 on S26, but these are instant savings that apply to your pre-order at checkout today. 

On top of that, there are also some bonus credits and discounts you can stack on top of the pre-order – Samsung’s site is largely the only place you’ll see this right now. Best Buy has generous trade options, but there is no bonus credits attached and Amazon is offering bonus store credit without the trades. 

Here’s a quick overview of the best deals here when it comes to trades in comparison to the extra credit you’ll get without a trade:

  • $980 savings for non-students with trade-in
    • Plus $30 exclusive credit with our links + $50 off with code PAYPAL50 at checkout
  • $1,120 savings for students with trade-in (Additional $90 off for students)
    • Plus $30 exclusive credit with our links + $50 off with code PAYPAL50 at checkout
  • $230 savings with no trade-in
    • $150 store credit + $30 exclusive credit with our links + $50 off with code PAYPAL50 at checkout

The key takeaways here are this:

  • Our links to the Samsung site will net you an exclusive $30 store credit whether you trade-in or not (and even if you didn’t Reserve a phone ahead of launch), and you can use code PAYPAL50 at checkout to knock an additional $50 off your order either way.

  • But if you’re not trading in, you can also add an additional $150 in Samsung store credit to the mix – this credit can be used at the time of pre-order to land massive deals and even completely FREE gear, including the new Galaxy Buds 4 and 4 Pro (as detailed right here). The image shows where to find this extra $150 credit on the Galaxy S26+ or Galaxy S26 Ultra listing pages – choose “No, Get $150 Samsung Credit” if you’re not trading in:

Galaxy S26/+ and Ultra Bundle Deals

For folks not trading, as detailed above, the extra $150 in credit stacks with the exclusive $30 credit you’ll receive via our links and the bonus $50 off using code PAYPAL at checkout for a total of $280 in extra savings.  

This effectively amounts to $230 in store credit, and because Samsung is discounting some of its gear already, this store credit can result in completely FREE or wildly discounted bonus gear with your pre-order.

  1. Navigate to the Galaxy S26+ or Galaxy S26 Ultra listing page. 
  2. Configure your phone and select “No Get $150 Samsung Credit” in the trade-in section.
  3. Add the phone to your cart with no other accessories (yet).
  4. Then go add the Galaxy Buds4 Pro, or a Galaxy Tab, or just about anything else on the Samsung site to the same cart your new phone is resting in.
  5. At the checkout screen apply code PAYPAL50, this will knock an additional $50 off your order.

Add the Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26+, or Galaxy S26 Ultra you are after to your cart after selecting the Samsung credit on the listing page (as seen above) with no other accessories. And then before checking out, go add the bonus gear you want to the same cart and apply the PAYPAL50 discount code – this will yield some wild deals, and even deliver completely FREE Galaxy Buds 4 and Galaxy Buds 4 Pro with orders on the Galaxy S26+, or Galaxy S26 Ultra:

Galaxy S26/+ and Ultra FREE 2x storage deals

The offers above straight from Samsung are a better overall value, but if you really value the FREE 2x storage upgrade, Amazon is where you need to be. 

The only place to score these deals right now is at Amazon. Best Buy has them too, but Amazon is also throwing in FREE gift cards so it makes very little sense to go with Best Buy here. If you do not value the double storage all that much, the offers above from Samsung are a smarter option.
