Samsung is running a new deal on the Galaxy S26 Ultra in the US. All you need for a price cut is to skip the trade-in route.
Right now, the Galaxy S26 Ultra is $200 off across all storage options, including 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB, when you buy it outright from the Samsung online shop.
If you do go the trade-in route instead, Samsung says you can save up to $720 depending on the device you hand in.
The catch is that you lose the instant $200 discount if you choose that option. You have to choose one way to save money. The two offers can't be stacked.
In any case, if you choose the $200 discount over a trade-in deal, that brings the Galaxy S26 Ultra's starting price down to $1,099. The 512GB and 1TB variants are now $1,299 and $1,599, respectively.
