So with the S25 range just a few weeks away, what kind of preorder deals would be persuasive enough to take the offer ?

With the unpacked event just a few weeks away for the upcoming S25 launch, the pre-orders will soon be here.   The new Samsung S25 range should be equipped with Android 15 and OneUI7, and most of the specs have already now been leaked (unofficial sources).    

I am pretty keen on the idea of an upgrade myself from my s23u to s25u, within my usual 2 year change cycle...  but it seems once again from leaked information, that the updates are fairly incremental between the ultra's.  Typically by now the leaked information is usually pretty accurate and from fairly reliable sources such as "iceuniverse" amongst others. 

This post isn't to discuss the specs of the phone, but rather what 'Pre-order deals' would get you keen on making an upgrade ? 

• Samsung freebies... i.e. Buds, Chromebook, watch, case etc ?
• A good discounted price ?   
• Elevated trade in prices against your current device ?
• Percentage discounts towards other tech bought at the same time ? 
• A good discount against the cost of care+ insurance ?

I will start with my hopes.    As I have recently already been impatient in the run up to Christmas and bought a new Galaxy Watch Ultra, Buds 3 Pro, and a new tablet S9FE, the offer of free tech from the Samsung range is a bit surplus to my needs right now.  

- I would like to see a good discounted price for early adopters during pre-order,

- I would also like to see an extra special trade in offer for my previous phone.   (I may actually pass my S23u to my daughter and trade her base model S23, to give her the better phone). 

- maybe a discount on cases, say 50% off Samsung genuine case during pre-order.  

- Finally the icing on the cake would be to have an offer on insurance, perhaps half price or likewise, to give me accidental protection. 

Perhaps to have all of these is a big ask.   What would you ideally like to see as an offer  ??

We'll probably see a Trade-in offer, Pre order reductions, and or auto increase in Internal storage capacity for the same price type deals, and the Samsung Buds³ or the Samsung Buds³ Pro as an incentive to purchase 🤔 @smiley @

Many may have received the email with with the £50 off voucher if applied for. 

Alot of tech sites / social media platform creators are saying it looks to be an incremental update if a person owns a Samsung Galaxy s²⁵ Series already. 

We'll see.

Free S24

A large trade in is what I'm hoping for. Or maybe an extended satalite plan if they added satalite connectivity to it like iphones have

Totally agree on the large trade in value part, but not the satellite if they do add that.
I'm hoping to see some free things for example a free laptop, buds 3, watch 7 or something like that. But we'll just have to wait and see.

My thoughts on satellite are: Apple gives a free satellite service for two years. Samsung offers free AI until 2026. So, if satellite is included, it will likely have a limited free usage plan. It might be nice for people getting this brand-new feature to be able to use it for longer without paying more.

(I'm sounding way more formal as I was lazy and just hit Samsung ai fix my grammar and spelling)

Know that some would br interested in satellite conmectivity but donoy think it is the biggest selling point. Biggest appeal will be the Trade Ins and offers.

A cheaper price tag 😊 and a free ring gen 2 😂

That's a big ask for Samsung to offer, like Free Galaxy Buds 3 Pro, a laptop or even a watch. I know in the U.S., they've offered massive discounts on top of 50% so that we could see something like that in Canada, but only time will tell.
