This week’s big news in the world of tech deals is Amazon Prime Day. The retailer’s summer mega-sale has really dominated the headlines, but it’s not the only game in town. For one, the official Samsung Store is currently offering exceptional deals on its own brand devices thanks to its own ‘summer sale’ happening right now.
On such deal is a record-low price on the excellent Galaxy S26 Ultra, which is our favorite Android device currently. Usually, this flagship would set you back an exorbitant amount, but right now you can either get $350 off upfront or up to $720 off with a trade-in.
Of the two, the upfront discount is the real headline feature here as it lets you take home the standard configuration for $949 (was $1,099). Ok, that’s still extremely expensive, but there are no additional hoops to jump through to get your hands on the device at its lowest-ever upfront price. With this unlocked device, you’ll be able to port it over to whatever carrier you wish without any annoying criteria, too.
Note that Amazon Prime Day is set to end at midnight tonight (June 26th) but it’s difficult to say whether this deal will disappear exactly. Nonetheless, if you are interested, I would probably recommend jumping on it sooner rather than later as it could vanish as the various ‘summer sales’ wind down.
Today’s record-low Galaxy S26 Ultra deal at Samsung
The best Samsung Galaxy S phone yet
In our Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra review, we described it as Samsung’s best Galaxy S phone to date, despite it being a fairly modest upgrade over its predecessor.
Rather than reinventing the formula, Samsung has refined it, improving the design, boosting performance, and expanding its AI features without increasing the price. Standout additions include the new Privacy display and Super Steady video mode, both of which are innovative features exclusive to the Galaxy S26 Ultra.
Even so, the phone’s biggest strengths remain its stunning display, superb cameras, and the versatility of its built-in S Pen. While pricey, at $950 we’d definitely say that the Ultra is worth considering if you want a high-end Android flagship.
