Samsung is offering trade-in deals for up to $900 when you pre-order its upcoming Galaxy S26 series at its Feb 25 event. The deal is available now on Samsung’s website, and if you sign up, you’ll also get a $30 credit towards accessories during the pre-order period. Additionally, you can enter a $5,000 sweepstakes for online store credit.
To participate, head to Samsung’s Galaxy Unpacked reservation website, enter your name and email address (or phone number), and fill out the trade-in form. Choose your current phone model from a list that includes Samsung, Apple, Google, and “Other.” You can then submit your selection and select “Trade In” as part of the offer.
The trade-in values are not specified, but it’s likely that newer models will receive more credit. Samsung may also offer better deals for its own phones. The deal is expected to be available closer to the Feb 25 event, likely within a week.
As for the Galaxy S26 series itself, rumors suggest a similar design to the S25, without an ultra-thin S26 Edge model, and featuring a Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and new telephoto lens on the Ultra model. However, Samsung has not confirmed these details, and we’ll have to wait until the event for confirmation.
