      • Thanks, prob not worth it for me. I can't be bothered reselling stuff like other people want to do. Ill stick to the default discount without the code.

        • I had the same issue before and post my comment earlier:

          I found that not all accessories are entitled to have that amount. For example, if I choose some tags and chargers, system won't apply the code. However if I selected Buds2 pro with a charger and a case, it works.

          • @HappyBargainer: It's a dodgy code IMO.

            Cause you need to spend $200 ONTOP of the $100 default offer.

            Cause you get this error message "The promo code GALAXYAI didn't apply. Please ensure you have a min. of $200 worth of ecosystem devices/accessories added to your cart, on top off the existing site wide ecovoucher, then try adding the promo code again. If issues persist, contact support."

            I tried just ordering $208 worth of accessories and it wouldn't let me but when I added $300+ it applied the discount

            • +1

              @hasher22: This year's deal isn't that great as you are forced to order some unnecessary stuff then you have to find a way to sell it.

              • @HappyBargainer: Agree and I can't be bothered anymore to resell stuff, I did when I got my S21 and did the dodgy not return the trade in phone hack and didn't get charged the non-return fee and sold my S20. Ultimately getting the S21 for around $400 but I can't be fooked anymore lol

  • Is it possible to get the snapdragon variant in shops? I got my snapdragon s22 256gb from jb hifi back in the day even tho Samsung were doing exynos and snapdragon that year.

    • I spoke with a Samsung rep this morning at JB. Only the ultra has the snapdragon

      • Only looking for s24 because don't want a big ass phone. Looks like off to the grey market it is…

        • the question is…. is it worth paying a couple of hundred for snapdragon lol. Because that is likely what you'd need to do if you grey market it.

  • which accessory has best resale value? i dont want any of this shit just a cheaper price for the S24 or S24+

    • Buds or Tags probably.

      • no buds over 300. what a joke.. lol

    • Samsung products do not have good resale value because they have all these discounts and deals. Apple doesn't do these deals which is why their products have high resale value.

  • +1

    What do people do with their phones that they have to upgrade every year? No trying to criticise, just genuinely puzzled.

    • +1

      It's the only medium ticket piece of non-perishable asset that you use daily (like a car) that most people with average salaries can afford to upgrade with the best cost to reward ratio and that doesn't break the bank.

      • +1

        Yes but what's the actual reward? What will a S24 actually do better than a S23? Graphically intensive games are the only thing I can think of, and I'm a bit stunned people seem to be paying 4 figures to play games on a tiny screen at an extra 10 frames a second.

        Guess there's some new "AI" features but they're of not much interest to people I know.

        • +1

          4 figures from people making 6-7 figures annually? they don't think twice, they're just finding something to throw their money at. don't question the mechanics of society, not everyone shares the same world view or finance management principles as you.

          • @plentifoo: Which is why I'm trying to understand this point of view. Your answer is that people want to find something to throw their money at. You're correct that I don't understand that.

    • I think it's more the ridiculous trade in things that Samsung does. Apple people, idk they just have 2k to blow every year lol

      • +1

        I mean, if I spend say $500 to upgrade my phone yearly to the newest and the latest, and also have the option to get cases, wireless chargers, buds, etc (depending on what you pick) all included then it's a good deal for me I guess. Like sort of getting a new toy?

        $500 a year is just over $40 a month, which is slightly less than $10 ($500/52 = ~ $9.7) a week to keep the one device which I do work/business/shopping/entertainment/photos on always up to date?

        I can justify that haha

        Oh and the bonus Samsung care happens to be for 1 year as well. Perfect timing

      • Samsung has lots of deals and discounts. Apple has high resale value and trade-in value because they don't have significant deals or discounts.

    • I buy outright and salary sacrific new phone each year, makes it cheaper by my effective tax rate.

      Keep them for two years (wife or me get the new one), and get back ~$200-300 for them rather then end up with a worthless old phone that you can't trade when it dies (looks at old phones in drawer).

      Better camera, battery life, specs etc etc.

  • So non-return for Trade In means you get to keep all the bonus trade-in discounts?

    • Yeah, just have to pay $60 non return admin fee + whatever your quoted trade in value amount was.

  • Telco EPP has the S24 Ultra for $1319

  • Trying to determine the final price if I followed the post, is it? Not including trade in value
    S24: $1119.20 - $250 bonus trade-in and instant e-vouchers: $200 (code GALAXYAI) + $100 (S24/S24+) = $569.20 ?

    • My S24 256gb was $614 after I had Pixel 7 ($295 trade in value) added in the cart with all the accessories.

      • How did you get it to $614?

        I getting the S24 512gb, same price as 256gb

        I am trading in my S21 for $-270 + $-350 trade in bonus and without any accessories its coming to $779

        • Sorry I'm on the education portal.

          • @m a c9: Dammit! Wish I was in the education system lol

    • Not quite, Samsung getting smarter with their deals.

      GALAXYAI code only works when you added $200 or more ONTOP of the default $100 accessory offer. So you have to add $300+ worth of accessories or you will get this error:

      "The promo code GALAXYAI didn't apply. Please ensure you have a min. of $200 worth of ecosystem devices/accessories added to your cart, on top off the existing site wide ecovoucher, then try adding the promo code again. If issues persist, contact support."

    • +1

      Final price for the phone would be $1119.20 - $250 bonus trade in value = $869.20 cash you need to pay up front for the phone (then subtract whatever your trade in value is)

      The $200 (code GALAXYAI) + $100 (S24/S24+) must be used on accessories whilst you're purchasing and doesn't reduce how much you need to pay for the phone

  • Is there any fines or penalties for not sending in phone for trade in to get the trade in discount?

    • +1

      Apart from the trade in value + $60 for non return admin fee, I don't believe so

      • Thanks for letting me know!

      • So they may not charge you the trade in bonus? If so, that's excellent if you don't have a device to trade in.

        • +1

          From my experience they've never charged you for the bonus amounts. Only the trade in amount + admin fee

    • +1

      they already charged the amount to your account and release them when they send the got the item in with the correct condition.

  • -1

    Avoid all these complications and simply get through this deal and cancel the plan:

    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/826857

    • +1

      Doesn’t apply for the base 24, and one would argue that this is more complicated.

  • Aside from the free $150 ecosystem discount for accessories, I seem to be getting additional discount when doing this:

    Add the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro (if you haven't added it on the first discount)
    Add GALAXYAI
    Remove Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
    Get additional discount on total

    Or am I just seeing things?

  • Anyone know if it is possible to only trade in 1 device and obtain the trade in bonuses for each device on the 24Ultra and S9FE/FE+?

    • Nvm looks like people have got it done

  • Thanks, OP; ordered one.

  • have they stopped the $350 bonus for trade-in? can't seem to show up on the pre-order cart

    • Its built-in under the total savings

      • Not for me.

        S24 Ultra 512GB.

        $2399 down to $2199 - $70 (A52s 5G) = $2129

  • -1

    Epic! Paid $1479.75 total. Still a lot but hopefully not bad! My S21 Ultra is suffering a cracked back screen, blurred selfie camera due to water cleaning and a non-working automatic brightness control.

    Used the Samsung Shopping app for an extra 5% discount:
    adding the accessories below, adding $200 loyalty bonus GALAXYAI, adding the trade-in for Galaxy Watch 4 Classic ($70) and getting trade-in bonus, adding $200 trade-in bonus CME code (over email or over phone with Samsung):
    1 X Galaxy S24 Ultra 512 GB (got the titanium blue exclusive color)
    1 X Free Samsung Care+, 1 year device program
    1 X Galaxy S24 Ultra Anti-Reflecting Screen Protector
    1 X Galaxy Buds2
    1 X Galaxy S24 Ultra Clear Case + 1 X Galaxy S24 Ultra Silicone Case (you can get the leather case instead of 2 silicon cases)

    also maybe getting this bonus after having order number and fill:
    Be one of the first 500 customers to pre-order a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra and correctly answer the below question to be win a Samsung Galaxy Watch6*

    • +2

      Link to the Galaxy watch 6 ?

    • hi, could you please share the link to enter the draw to win the watch 6? thanks!

    • share the link for watch 6 mate!

  • Does anyone know what happens if you do a trade in with a device that then doesn't meet their criteria? E.g. I have an old galaxy watch that no longer works. If I say it works completely it is valued as $5 trade in. If I then send it to Samsung and they reject it, do I just lose the $5 or do I lose the $5 plus the $60 (or $30) fee that you get if you don't send a device at all?

    And just to clarify, I keep the other trade in bonuses that are applied, right?

    • +1

      I ended up going with the watch trade in. From what I can see in the T&Cs, if they decide the watch doesn't meet the condition then they reassess it and charge me the difference between the trade in and the reassessed value. So if they assess it as $0, then they should charge me $5 (with no further charge).

      Might be a way for people to avoid the $60 "no send" charge.

    Here is a summary of what worked for me.

    1 X Galaxy S24 Ultra 256

    1 X Free Samsung Care+, 1 year device program

    1 X Galaxy S24 Ultra Clear Case

    1 X Super Fast Wireless Charger Duo

    1 X 45W Power Adapter Black

    2 X SmartTag2 – 4 Pack (2 x White and 2 x Black)
    Planning to sell these after as i already have 4.

    Will also be trading in S21 Ultra for $360.

    Final price is 1235.20 After applying the eco system vouchers (200 and 100) and GALAXYAI code, plus trade in bonus of 250.

    Hope this helps someone.

    • What are ecosystem vouchers and how to get them?

      • Pre‑order a new Galaxy S24 Series device on Samsung.com and get a $200 eVoucher for selected Galaxy Tablets, Buds, Watches and accessories1 but hurry this only lasts for 72 hours. Starting on Thursday 18th January 5:00AM AEDT and ending on Sunday 21st January 5:00AM AEDT.
        To get that you use the code GALAXYAI

        Also My understanding is that you have to buy
        $350 worth of accessories for the other $150 discount to be applied and it gets added by itself.

  • Anyone have experience with trading in a phone with a very small scratch on the screen? My phone is worth $525 trade in but only $40 trade in if i declare that it has damage.
    How big does the scratch need to be, to need to declare it? It's very small and shallow.

    Considering sending my phone to samsungcare to fix the screen for $45 but worried I won't get it back in time.

    • I traded in my old phone with a minor scratch near the edge. The screen was working perfectly fine. Got full value.

      • Interesting, thanks! Looking at the trade in questions, they don't actually ask about screen scratches. They ask if the screen is working, and then another question about dents or scratches on the back, but technically nothing about scratches on the screen…

  • I found out something very unique
    Web store vs Mobile Store

    On my PC $1,525.80

  • Managed to get the ultra 256gb with trade in on pixel 7 for 1277 including buds pro 2, 2 cases and a charging brick. Waited for an hour on chat and it glitches out when I was nearly first lol seems like a good price anyway but another couple of hundred makes it a buy for me

    Guys its worth trying their live chat to see if you can get a $200 trade-in voucher which stacks on top of the bonus $250 trade-in for this pre-order.
    I managed to nab the following -

    Galaxy S24 Ultra 512GB
    Samsung Care+
    Galaxy Tab S9 FE
    Galaxy S24 Ultra Clear Case

    After all discount codes, trade-in and EPP Rewards points it totaled a little over $1600. Pretty happy with that.

      Can I ask what you said on live chat to get the further discount please? Did you just ask outright for an extra discount?

      The Shop App does not have the 20% off that the education store does. So I think you did okay. I did an order via Shop App and Education store…..was cheaper via education store.

      • I've discovered you can switch to the Education store from within the Samsung Store app, so you can then get the 5% app discount stacked on top of the 20% educational discount (and all other promo codes).

    It was pretty fiddly ordering on the mobile, but it worked eventually!

    • how much points is this worth in dollars? Samsung reward points (593)

      • $5.93

    • Did you manage to get the additional trade in benefits for the S9 FE+? I can't work out how to get that to stack. It says only 1 device for trade in per order

    - $250 Bonus Trade (trading a $5 burner I have)
    - $200 Trade Up Voucher (CME code)

    Came to $1490.80.

    Also applied 4% Cashrewards but not sure if that will work due to CME code.
    Will sell my S21 Ultra on Marketplace ($450-500)
    Going overseas so can consider TRS also.

    I didnt go the JB Hifi Telstra Sim option, as I need to use the port in later to buy an iPhone for my wife (even though the port in voucher is currently significantly better for S24).

    Can anyone explain it out for a complete newbie to using all the vouchers. I have access to the education store and looking at the ultra. I'm just unsure how to acquire all the codes and the order to get the best price. Thanks.

    • +1

      The steps are literally on this post. -_-

      • I have been reading them but just realised i wasn't getting the discounts because i wasn't on the final page. Have worked it out now thanks to the post below. thanks

    • +7

      You have two main codes to use.

      GALAXYAI - which anyone can use

      A voucher from Samsung - either you're lucky enough to get it from Samsung (it's targeted) or you can chat/call Samsung and ask them for it. It starts with CME.

      Download the Samsung Shop app (if it's your first time purchasing) Log in, you can access the education store from the app.

      Pick the device you want, then add your trade in device. This will deduct your trade in device value + an extra $250 because you traded in.

      Then you pick 1 year free Samsung care - an insurance for damages, etc.

      Then you select $300 or $350 (depending on which one you buy - $300 for the S24/24+ and $350 for the Ultra) worth of accessories - cases, buds, tablets, chargers, etc and add them to cart. Then enter GALAXYAI in the promo tab. This will give you deduct $200 worth from the accessories.

      Then if you buy an S24U you enter the CME code and it will further discount it by $200. So far it seems it doesn't work with the S24 or the plus models.

      Check your updated total price and see if you've saved like what the other guys posting here have saved.

      That's pretty much it.

      • +1

        Thanks so much for your help. appreciate it.

      • Can you access the epp store from the app?

        • only the education store from what I can see on the app.

        • You can switch between store experiences in the Shop app
          Menu > scroll down > click Samsung Education store
          or
          Menu > scroll down > click Samsung Online store

          then you are switched to the other store

      • Voucher from Samsung, is that the Ultra models CME code or something else?

        • +1

          That's the code that starts with CME which works only for the Ultras (so far)

        • +1

          A voucher from Samsung - either you're lucky enough to get it from Samsung (it's targeted) or you can chat/call Samsung and ask them for it. It starts with CME.

          they literally have CME in their description of the voucher lol

  • It’s cool to see the colourful phones from ss.

    • Now imagine we got these colors 😭

    • The question comes down to…. would anybody notice the difference between snapdragon and exynos. Most people wouldn't…. as both doesn't lag unless you do something that is resource intensive e.g. play games.

      Snapdragon won't make your cat videos run any faster. haha Battery life wise, the last Exynos was pretty good, I was getting over 24hrs from it.

      If you play your game smart…. you could get a S21+ for almost $890 after offloading the right accessories on Facebook Marketplace….

      • Yeah i think i worked it out. Through my EPP got the Galaxy S24, a 4 pack of SmartTag2, and a Galaxy Watch6 for $787 with the trade-in of my S21. Im happy with that. Thanks.

  • +1

    Has anyone had success with arguing with spport to have the $200 voucher to be applied to the s24+ ?

    Im not really in the market for an ultra.

    • The code is only for the Ultra from what I was told in live chat

    • Just get the ultra. Its well worth it for the Snapdragon.

    • in the past they have had some issues with some of the coupon codes. Which usually gets fixed within 24hrs…… which is why i will wait alittle and then order. Hoping they will fix it.

    • Hopefully if enough people bug them about this, they'll change the code so it works for the S24+.

      I'm done with the Ultra line after having the S23U for a year. Great performance but too heavy and bulky.

  • Has anyone ordered S24 512gb and GalaxyWatch 6 BT 43mm together?

    Best price I am getting is $828.40 (after $460 trade-ins).

    I'm not sure my vouchers are applying correctly.
