Samsung has a surprise free offer for Galaxy S24 Ultra buyers

Updated June 22 with updated discounts and additional details on new Galaxy AI features.

If you’re looking to buy a new Galaxy S24 Ultra handset, then Samsung has a new offer to tempt you.

Samsung’s premium Galaxy S24 Ultra handset was announced in January, and since then, the S24 family has become one of the best-selling smartphone ranges Samsung has seen. However, the South Korean company has continued to offer special offers, discounts and free accessories to keep sales high.

A recently announced deal offers UK customers the chance to not only buy the Galaxy S24 Ultra, but also get a free Galaxy Watch6 as part of the package.

This is not the only discount on offer. Samsung is offering £200 cashback after purchase, although you’ll need to claim this as a separate transaction and meet the other criteria listed on the Samsung Cashback website.

You can then trade in an existing smartphone for an additional discount. This depends on the model and condition; the company is quoting up to £395 on a Galaxy Z Fold4.

Finally, you have the free Galaxy Watch6, which will be added to your cart at checkout. The WearOS-powered smartwatch is a great companion for the S24 Ultra, but anyone considering this offering should be aware that Samsung is expected to launch the new Galaxy Watch7 range at next month’s Galaxy Unpacked event.

Update: Saturday June 22.

Samsung has confirmed another discount available to those who buy a new Galaxy S24 Ultra before the end of the month.

If customers use the Samsung Shop app, they can add code APP24 when shopping for a further ten percent discount in their cart. With the Galaxy S24 Ultra costing between £1,249 and £1,549 here in the UK, that’s up to £155 off available via the Shop app, on top of £200 cashback and up to £395 via the trade-in programme.

Would you believe there is more? Located at the bottom of the page is an option to save thirty percent when you buy a set of Galaxy Buds true wireless headphones along with your new Galaxy smartphone. As with the Galaxy Watch6 on offer, Samsung is expected to launch a new range of Galaxy Buds at July’s Galaxy Unpacked event.

Update: Sunday 23 June: While the Galaxy S24 Ultra is coming up on its six-month birthday (which is almost middle age for a smartphone’s market life), Samsung isn’t going to “leave it behind” during the launch of the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6 . Alongside the two foldable handsets will be an updated version of Samsung’s OneUI operating system.

Samsung will include the first major Galaxy AI update as part of that update. As well as general optimizations and improvements to existing AI features, the South Korean company is expected to expand AI generation capabilities in image editing software; One such feature will be inpainting, allowing users to change the style of an entire image, or generally modify a small part of the image.

These updates will be reported on the Galaxy S24 platform and will be available for free. If you pick up the S24 Ultra during the current offer, you can expect all the new bells and whistles on the Galaxy AI at no extra cost.

The upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event will launch two new smartphones, namely the Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6, but these are both foldable devices. Unless there are any surprises, the Galaxy S24 Ultra will remain Samsung’s premium phone.
