  • I managed to get s24 512gb ultra down to $395, with trading in 23 ultra 512gb. Has anyone been able to do better?

      • I dont mean total cost, just the phone so if were to buy it and cancel the ither stuff to just get the phone it will cost me $395.
        I got a screen protector, case, and something random to make it go above $350 for accessories

        • screenshot of all the accessories?

        • how did you cancel $350 accessories bonus after placing the order?

    • Can get it down to $312 on EPP. Assuming cancelling all accessories

      • Oh how, couldn't get that, what did you get.
        I used the student account

        • Add accessories to as close as 350 as possible with GALAXYAI. Trade in. CME. Phone should reflect $312

          • @OZcheepsk8: Yeah that's what i tried but couldn't find anything closer as most stuff out of stock

            • @michael9865: The random accessories i picked were 4x galaxy tab s9 smart book cover + galaxy tab s9 anto reflecting screen protector. Government EPP portal

              • @OZcheepsk8: Ooh great job, $84 more for me, so, not too bad.

                Was thinking of ordering 4x buds FE and then selling each for $90 which would make it closer to $250 but too lazy

              • @OZcheepsk8: I have tried many options but can't reduce the phone price below $44X.

                https://files.ozbargain.com.au/upload/103495/109968/s24_cart…

                not sure what I am missing. Using partner rewards EPP.

              • @OZcheepsk8: where are u finding those acceossires

                im using the shop app and only see phone case, tablets and watches and chargers
                95% all out of stock too

                • @furythree: Look at tablet accessories. Closest I got to $350 was the S9 Ultra book cover + S24 Ultra clear gadget case + KD Lab CORE Tempered glass for Galaxy Watch 6 44. I think it was about $360 and converts into around $285 in refunds

                  Edit: Ordered about 10mins ago so definitely stock

                  • @0 0 0: hmm the phone app doesnt even have tablet accessories as a category
                    i added 5 different cases instead and got it to around $370

                    close enough

                    i suppose the next step is to cancel these accessories after the payment?

                    • +1

                      @furythree: when your payment goes through. go to your order page. sometimes its awaiting approval (you need to wait until its order accepted). If it goes through and is immediately order accepted, you can cancel order, then select the accessories to cancel whilst leaving the phone and samsung care

                      • @OZcheepsk8: thank you

                        currently stuck at the trade in stage. wont accept my online payment deposit for the trade in. want to throw my fone at the wall dealing with ausrion

                        • @furythree: Have you traded the phone before? It won't allow you to trade it again

                          • @0 0 0: i figured out why
                            i was using the $1 headphone trick. turns out theyve disabled this in the latest version of the app. updating the app now to trade in something else

    • What did you do? Mine was $550 with same trade-in .. didn't bother with 5% code.

      My S24U has shipped today

  • Does anyone know if theres any restrictions buying more than 1 s24 ultra on the EPP portal? Trying to get one for my mum.

    • +1

      No but i think the galaxyAI code can only be used once per account, maybe the same with the other codes

      • Thank you

      • +1

        Correct. I had to create a new account

        • Can we create another account with same edu email?

  • Anyone have issues with the trade up app not being able to process security charge payment? I keep getting "unable to process your payment. Please try again" error.

    • Don't use the app. Do the trade in in the cart.

      • Wow didnt know that was an option. Thanks!

  • Just checked my order using: https://shop.samsung.com/au/mypage/orders and every item in my order have been marked as shipped. Very cool!!

    No email update yet but I wouldn't be surprised if we get our phones before the 29th.

    I ordered Thursday around midday.

    Does anyone know if they shipped out the s23 pre-orders early last year?

    • Mine says shipped too but I have no tracking of any sort. I ordered on Thursday evening.

      • I am wondering if Samsung moved them to shipped to stop people cancelling accessories lol

  • Thanks for the tip regarding cancelling the accessories! I wish I knew this previously as I've been buying the Fold and S Ultra every year but didn't know this trick.

    $1182 (no EDU discount sadly) for the S24 Ultra 512gb after $5 trade-in of my Gear S3 Frontier watch. Been using the Fold 3/4/5 and was starting to get RSI from the weight. Hopefully I don't regret changing form factor

  • +1

    Buds FE back in stock. Potentially others

    • Because peoppe have been ordering and then cnacdlling accessories

  • Smart tags back in stock too

  • My order from the EDU store via the Shop app. Used both accessory vouchers ($350) and both trade in bonuses and the additional 5% discount. Traded my 256gb S21+ ($330).

    1 x Galaxy S24 Ultra (256gb lime) $651.77
    1 x Galaxy S24 Ultra Clear Case $21.28
    1 x Galaxy S24 Ultra Anti-Reflecting Screen Protector $21.28
    1 x SmartTag2 – 4 Pack $92.22
    1 x Galaxy Buds FE $67.53
    1 x Galaxy SmartTag2 Rugged Case $15.83
    1 x Galaxy SmartTag2 Silicone Case $21.28
    Subtotal
    $891.19

    Really wanted the duo wireless charger instead of the buds but didn't want to miss out on the smart tags again, so pulled the trigger.

    • when i select the 256gb its the same price as the 512 gb due to "free storage upgrade" for the same price as the 256gb
      the 256gb is preorder

      how are you getting this 651 price

      Also the $350 voucher is just Galaxy AI and the second one you dont "use" it automatically applies

      i assume ur 651 is inclusive of 330? thats misleading

      • It must be the Education Store/Government Store and you must be using the public store @furythree?

        In the discounted stores, the 512GB model is at the regular price - not at the same base price as the 256GB model (before the 20% discount). I'm not sure how they got it so far down to $651, though!

        • i am so confused. i have an educational account

          when i went through the checkout one more time (this time on the website to ensure it was education store) instead of the shop app, i added the same items and discounts

          and it came down to the same price.

          but i can confirm the website does show different 256 and 512 pricing as you said. but for the 512, post discount total was the same as i got in the app (i was after the 512 anyway, just confused how that guy got it sub 1k, he must be including trade in because if you add the 330 back to 651 it pretty much is the difference between 256 and 512 models)

        • looks like there was a toggle in profile settings on the shop app between education vs retail

          i didnt know and bought it using retail

          now it wont let me use GALAXYAI on the same account twice, so i cant cancel and reorder farrout

      • The double memory isn't offered on the EDU store so the 256gb model is available to purchase.

        When the accessory vouchers are applied ($150 and $200) for some reason the shopping cart reduces the prices of all the items to reflect the value of the voucher. I don't know why Samsung does it that way but you can basically ignore the cost of the phone. I'm essentially paying $891 for the phone and getting everything else for free.

        • Samsung reduces the cost across the card based on value of goods and making it prorated.

          That's so the discount doest apply to only certain items and people would obviously be able to delete the other making certain items realistically free.

        • Granted i wanted the 512 model. the total should be only 150-200 more than yours.

          mine came down to 1559 less tradein value of phone

          so if you make all other things the same i think my educational discount isnt applying properly

          The website clearly says 20% off though. so i am super confused

          it says:

          Subtotal
          $2,399.00
          Discount Applied
          - $1,125.02
          Grand Total
          $1,273.98
          (i refunded the accessories)

          im unsure how the 1125 came to be. but stacking 350 tradein bonus + 200 trade in bonus (confused why theres 2) + 5% shop app discount + 20% student + $200 cme voucher

          i get around 1273.24 (remove percentages first then subtract dollar value discounts)

          frim 1273 you can deduct the value of the trade in itself (so 330) = 940

          940 is roughly the premium of the 512 model

          im unsure if the 1273 includes the trade in deduction already

          the stupid invoice only mentions the $350 trade in, the $150 ecosystem and the 200$ bonus trade in vouchers. and 5% app. So there $350 missing in discounts unaccounted for

          perhaps the $200 of the 350 is galaxy AI code, but doesnt mention it, and the 150 is the value of my phone i was trading in (note 10). which means it didnt apply the 20% off properly. theres no way to tell

          what happens if i dont hand in my trade in device? do they refund the $150 but keep $60 penalty?

  • anyone else getting the "unable to process your payment please try again: error in the Trade up app

    • Don't use the app. Do the trade in at the checkout instead

      • was trying the $1 headphone trick which i just discovered is missing in the latest app version (was app only last year)

  • Am I right in my understanding that the cancellation of the accessories will just refund the final discounted price and not the refund of original cost price - the idea in this case is to still maintain the accessories discount applied against the phone?

    • +1

      but u keep the bonus discount though right
      which is the "free discount" part

  • I registered here just to thank you so much for sharing this guide! I just got a fantastic deal with this through the EDU store:

    S24 Ultra 256GB = $796
    ( - - Trade In: S21 5G 128GB: base $270 + $200 bonus + additional $250 bonus = $720 trade-in value )

    ( Accessories with $150 + $200 bonus = $350 )

    S24 Ultra Smart View Wallet Case = $42
    Galaxy Buds 2 Pro = $214 (last pair of earphones died so I genuinely needed this lol)
    65W Power Adapter Trio = $61
    1x SmartTag2 = $34
    1year Samsung Care+ = Free
    1,147 Reward Points to use in the Samsung Store later.

    Total Savings: $1624.20

    Order total including GST: $1146.80

    And I guess I missed the 5% discount of purchasing through the mobile APP but the deal is so good I just don't care haha!

    Should be quite the upgrade especially in terms of CPU and GPU speeds (double or triple performance, I think?). And… no longer having to deal with an Exynos chipset is a bonus (although the phone and camera on my S21 became significantly better on UI 5.0 compared to launch). Hopefully no more poor, battery-draining reception for Wi-Fi and Mobile too with the latest antenna. And the larger battery is very welcome along with efficiency improvements.

    Happy Pre-Ordering everyone! Get in while small accessories are still in stock!
    In the worst case, you can grab one of the Smartwatches or a Tab S9 tablet and pay a little extra which is still a good deal if you have a use for them. :)

  • +1

    The wireless charger trio seems to be back in stock on the EDU store if anyone has been waiting for it. The other wireless chargers are still OOS.

  • Can you access members app via non Samsung account?

    My members voucher is not stacking with normal call centre CME.

    1st code is automatically deleted if I apply 2nd code

    • +1

      Only one CME code can be used. They are for the same $200 trade-in bonus when buying an S24 ultra.

      • People have stacked it. Check the previous comments.

        I think there is particular sequence to get these codes stakced

        • +1

          People are stacking galaxyai and the cme code. The tradein bonus is auto applied. No ones stacking multiple cme codes

        • I've not read of anyone stacking two CME codes. I think you're mistaken.

          • @wombat81: Check this

            https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/826893?page=4#comment-1486…

            I saw another person confirming the same things but cant find the comment

            • @Ash-Say: If you keep reading he confirms that he can't use the two codes together. I think in the original comment he meant that the codes were stackable with the other discounts, not necessarily with each other.

              • @wombat81: I think it might be stackable but people don't have codes via the right methods.

                From what I've seen there are 3 ways to get CME code.

                1. Targeted email from Samsung
                2. Samsung live chat
                3. Samsung members app

                That user specifically said they stacked 1 and 3, but from what I've read people are trying to stack 2 and 3.

                • +1

                  @CodeXD: Tested all combinations (I have codes from those 3 sources) and it doesn't work. Only one CME code can be applied.

                • @CodeXD:

                  , 4. Emailing Customer Engagement

                  I have codes from all four sources and they won't stack

        • +1

          As far as I'm aware you can't stack CME coupons. I tried last night and adding the second one deletes both.

          • @0 0 0: Where did you get your 2 codes from? Is it targeted one from Samsung email and another from Samsung members app?

    • That is what I said earlier. I tried to stack, second one gets 'applied' but then deletes the first one and removes both. Might be possible if there is a glitch and someone got lucky.

  • Has anyone's order been marked as shipped after cancelling accessories? I cancelled some accessories and hoping there's no issues getting the rest of my order.

    • +2

      shipped here

      • when did u order? mine still says awaiting dispatch

    • did you already get the refund for those cancellation accessories? I have cancelled but no refunds have been made yet

      • +1

        It normally takes 3-5 business days for the refund to come through

      • Have you received an email confirming the refund will be done soon?

    • Yes, I cancelled some accessories and it is marked shipped. Unsure re the refund as I paid using after pay.

  • Hello, i purchased the S24 ultra. Is there a way to still receive the free galaxy 6 watch ?

    • +1

      The 500 unit redemption limit closed a while back

    • hey can u turn on your messages ?

  • +1

    Marked as shipped with accessories cancelled

    • when did u order? mine still says awaiting dispatch

    • Time / date of order pls?

      • Thursday 1pm

        • I ordered on Thursday too but only cancelled accessories this morning (Saturday) so that might delay my shipping if cancelling something sends my order to the back of the queue. Not sure how it works.

    • same here.

      anyone know if preorders were shipped out early in previous years?

  • Anyone having issues with the GALAXYAI code? Getting this error: "Redemption limit of this voucher has been reached – please use another voucher."

    • +2

      Dont click trade in on the initial screen. Only add that on the final screen where you can enter the promo codes

      • Still same message trying your method.

    • Can only be used once per account. Have you already purchased a phone and trying to buy another on same account?

      • Yes, I have, this could be the reason why..thanks.

  • Ordered S24 Ultra 1TB, traded in S6 for $1.

    Works out to be $1849.

    Used GALAXYAI
    $150 auto applied
    $250 auto applied
    $200 bonus using CME code as it let me stack
    20% students discount auto applied ($2239) RRP $2799

    Added the following:
    Buds FE
    10000mah battery pack
    Vegan leather case
    Silicon case
    Antireflective screen protector

  • With the cancel trick, how would the refund work? I used credit card to check out and there's already a pending transaction

    • People are going into the orders aftee they ordered, cancelling the accessories and keeping just the phone as the phone receives some of the discounts from the codes.

      • Do we know if the remaining discount attached to the phone actually varies depending on what accessories were selected (and then cancelled) in the first place?

        • +1

          what you pick makes no difference except for the $. The closer your total accessories to 350, the better. What samsung does is evenly split 350 across all items in cart

        • I think what @OZcheepsk8 wrote is correct. Seems to be closer to $350 the cheaper the phone part of the order is.

          • @JL1: Yes. It's spot on. I tested the math with my initial tablet purchase as the selected accessory. Had to cancel the order and reorder with accessories value closer to $350 to optimise the discount.

  • Thanks, got S24U 512gb for $272 with Fold 5 trade in and cancelling accessories. Hoping Asurion doesn't chuck a fuss with scratches on the hinge.

    • thats cheap. how much was trade in value

      • $965 for Fold Z 512GB, used all coupons and EDU.

    • My S22 ultra has a couple small scratches too, hopefully no issues, i noticed the trade in questions didn't actually ask about screen scratches so fingers crossed

      • +1

        Shouldn't be an issue tbh take photos before you send it in

        • Yeah hope so! I assume they replace the screen to re-sell them anyway. Scratches only arrived recently, think it was my keys :(

    • Fold 5 has a bigger screen but ultra definitely has much better camera. What's your experience of fold 5 and what made you changed back to ultra?

      • Fold 5 was great for productivity/work but i also like to game on my phone and its abit awkward on that screen and and i found the outside screen abit to narrow and had issues typing every now and then. Battery life is also not as good but still enough. Also is the inevitable hinge failure, but all in all its a good phone but given i also use for game i prefer the candy bar phone style, camera was fine for me on my trip overseas.

        • I agree that the outer screen is too narrow to type. Just the inner big screen made me stay on fold. Ultra definitely has better camera and battery life. Most importantly, the charging speed is much faster on ultra. Fold has slow 25w charging which takes way too long to charge.
