Handsets from the latter have remained discounted, with the Galaxy S25 Ultra 256GB down to $934 from $1,299.99\u2014almost 30% off. The size of the discount shows we\u2019re solidly into deal season, but seeing this phone drop below $1,000 is still a rare find.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"embed-base color-body color-body-border link-embed embed-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/jaymcgregor\/2025\/09\/27\/apple-iphone-17-pro-scratch-design-problem-affects-trade-in-price\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"New Apple iPhone 17 Design Issue Could Cost You Hundreds\" data-ga-track=\"forbesEmbedly:https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/jaymcgregor\/2025\/09\/27\/apple-iphone-17-pro-scratch-design-problem-affects-trade-in-price\/\" rel=\"noopener\">ForbesNew Apple iPhone 17 Design Issue Could Cost You HundredsBy Janhoi McGregor<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"my-2 [&amp;+p]:mt-4 [&amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [&amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\">This is an Amazon promotion, so the device comes with nothing but a lower price\u2014no free tablet, laptop, or earbuds. However, independent of Amazon, <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/jaymcgregor\/2025\/06\/23\/samsung-galaxy-phone-tablet-free-perplexity-ai-offer\/\" data-ga-track=\"InternalLink:https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/jaymcgregor\/2025\/06\/23\/samsung-galaxy-phone-tablet-free-perplexity-ai-offer\/\" target=\"_self\" aria-label=\"Galaxy S25 owners are entitled to one year of Perplexity Pro\" rel=\"noopener\">Galaxy S25 owners are entitled to one year of Perplexity Pro<\/a> and six months of <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/jaymcgregor\/2025\/09\/06\/samsung-galaxy-phone-tablet-free-perplexity-pro-ai-offer-students\/\" data-ga-track=\"InternalLink:https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/jaymcgregor\/2025\/09\/06\/samsung-galaxy-phone-tablet-free-perplexity-pro-ai-offer-students\/\" target=\"_self\" aria-label=\"Google AI Pro at no extra cost\" rel=\"noopener\">Google AI Pro at no extra cost<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-2 [&amp;+p]:mt-4 [&amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [&amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\">That low price also comes with some solid trade-in options, though they pale in comparison to what Samsung offers for the same devices. Here\u2019s a selection of realistic trade-ins:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Galaxy S24 Ultra \u2014 Samsung: $700, Amazon: $400<\/li>\n<li>Galaxy S23 Ultra \u2014 Samsung: $530, Amazon: $295<\/li>\n<li>Galaxy S10 Plus \u2014 Samsung: $100, Amazon: $40<\/li>\n<li>Google Pixel 8 Pro \u2014 Samsung: $250, Amazon: $200<\/li>\n<li>Google Pixel 7 Pro \u2014 Samsung: $150, Amazon: $100<\/li>\n<li>iPhone 15 Pro Max \u2014 Samsung: $550, Amazon: $420<\/li>\n<li>iPhone 14 Pro Max \u2014 Samsung: $450, Amazon: $375<\/li>\n<li>iPhone 13 Pro Max \u2014 Samsung: $300, Amazon: $280<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"my-2 [&amp;+p]:mt-4 [&amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [&amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\">Amazon\u2019s prices don\u2019t stack up against Samsung\u2019s trade-in valuations (few companies\u2019 do), which explains why the retailer competes on upfront price instead. In some cases, it may make more sense to buy the Galaxy S25 Ultra directly from Samsung, depending on what phone you\u2019re trading in.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"embed-base color-body color-body-border link-embed embed-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/jaymcgregor\/2025\/09\/15\/samsung-galaxy-z-fold-5-free-chromebook-galaxy-tab-s11-discount\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Samsung Bundles A Laptop And Earbuds With The Galaxy Z Fold 7\" data-ga-track=\"forbesEmbedly:https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/jaymcgregor\/2025\/09\/15\/samsung-galaxy-z-fold-5-free-chromebook-galaxy-tab-s11-discount\/\" rel=\"noopener\">ForbesSamsung Bundles A Laptop And Earbuds With The Galaxy Z Fold 7By Janhoi McGregor<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"my-2 [&amp;+p]:mt-4 [&amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [&amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\">The Korean company is also offering a double-storage upgrade\u2014meaning you can get the 512GB model for the price of the 256GB\u2014and an extra 5% discount with the code \u201cAPP5\u201d if the handset is bought through the Samsung Shop app. Amazon does have one advantage, though: buyers can trade in as many devices as they want, and the combined value can be used toward purchasing the Galaxy S25 Ultra.<\/p>\n<p>More Deals To Come For The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra<\/p>\n<p>Amazon ran a similar deal for the Galaxy S24 Ultra last November. <\/p>\n<p>getty<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re planning to buy the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, this deal is definitely worth pulling the trigger for. A near 30% discount on the current flagship Samsung phone is as good as it gets. Last November, Amazon ran a similar deal for the S24 Ultra, <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/jaymcgregor\/2024\/11\/04\/samsung-galaxy-s24-ultra-early-black-friday-sale-discount\/\" data-ga-track=\"InternalLink:https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/jaymcgregor\/2024\/11\/04\/samsung-galaxy-s24-ultra-early-black-friday-sale-discount\/\" target=\"_self\" aria-label=\"discounting the handset by 23%\" rel=\"noopener\">discounting the handset by 23%<\/a>, which brought the price down to $1,000.74 for the 256GB model.<\/p>\n<p>That means the current Galaxy S25 Ultra deal on Amazon is $66 cheaper than last year\u2019s Galaxy S24 Ultra price cut. Samsung\u2019s own Black Friday deals last November didn\u2019t drop the phone\u2019s price below $1,000, so Amazon\u2019s offer is absolutely a good one. The only caveat is that Samsung is likely to throw in a free pair of Galaxy Buds or a Galaxy Watch for its Black Friday sale, as it did in 2024. If you\u2019re happy to wait, the Galaxy S25 Ultra isn\u2019t going to get any more expensive.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Update 11\/10:<\/strong> Amazon U.S. still has the best deal available, even up against Samsung U.K., which isn\u2019t shy about giving away free hardware. However, British Samsung shoppers can get 15% off the Galaxy S25 Ultra with the code \u201cS15\u201d which needs to be applied at checkout. <\/p>\n<p>That drops the price down \u00a31,061.65 (1409.30). This also comes with six months of Google AI Pro and up to \u00a3450 ($600) in trade-in, but there\u2019s no free hardware giveaway this time around. <\/p>\n<p>The device is also full price on Amazon U.K. right now, so I would recommend waiting until a new deal drops. We have seen Samsung boost its trade-in prices this year, alongside bundling a free laptop, Galaxy Watch and earbuds with select Galaxy phone purchases. These offers will come around again (although the free laptop promotion looked like the company was clearing old-device stock, so that might not come back). Hold tight for a better deal in a couple of weeks as we move closer to Black Friday. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra hits its lowest price yet.
