          I spoke to a Rep on the phone and he said that I couldn't return any of the accessories on their own and that if I wanted to return the accessories, I needed to also return the phone :(

      No, not recently. Samsung canned that idea a couple of days ago.

      Where does it say in the product page that this S Pen has Bluetooth functionality?

      • Wizard on 26/01/2025 - 11:42

        "Instantly have at your service an array of tools via Air Command."

        Indicates bluetooth is used for Air Command communication.

      • Wizard on 26/01/2025 - 11:48

        Upon deeper research, it looks like there is no bluetooth and Air Actions works, possibly via the s-pens tip only.

          Yeah a bit bummed out about the bluetooth. The remote shutter function on the s-pen worked wonders and i use it for every birthday/special occasion to take family photos especially with young kids and pets.

          • CodeXD on 26/01/2025 - 13:56

            @Rad19874812: Same, I use it all the time. I can still use my galaxy watch as shutter but more annoying since I need to press specific part of the screen, I can't look at the camera and take it like with the pen.

          • buyerbee on 26/01/2025 - 14:03

            @Rad19874812: Seems they nerfed bluetooth s-pen functionality from s24u -> s25u. May I ask what this even adds in practice? Never used the s-pens much struggling to think of how bluetooth even works with an s-pen exactly

      If you're a uni alumnus at certain unis, you can reactivate your uni email. Works for UNSW. If not, probably have to ask around family/friends who are uni students/employees.

    • megaalc on 26/01/2025 - 13:49

      i am using my personal email to login to goverment portal in samsung app as my gov email linked to my personal email/samsung account (or vice versa), so otps go to my personal email with no issues. i remember i did login to https://shop.samsung.com/au/multistore/auepp/partners_au/aut… using my normal samsung account email , when it was promted me to enter my gov email , so i did, recevied verification email, and that is pretty much it

    Got S25U 256, Buds 3 pro and screen protectors for $1090 with $1 trade-in, hopefully able to return buds. Ships 6 Feb, seems some colours will have 1-2 week delay. Pretty insane, used s24 ultras currently go for $1300 on eBay.

      Pretty good. Hopefully I can sell my S25U jet black brand new for somehwere around $1300 when i receive it. I'd probably just go mobile monster for a quick sell.

  • zammr on 26/01/2025 - 13:14

    Ended up getting two phones in this deal :

    S25U 256GB
    S25 base 256gb
    S25U Screen protector
    Buds Pro 3

    For $1563.03
    Will try return Buds when received and get a further $240 off that.

    This was with $100 ecovoucher, $200 accessories, 2x trade in bonuses with S9+ and S10+ for $1 value ($700 total trade in bonus) and 5% off first purchase.

    • zztrader on 26/01/2025 - 16:55

      @zammr
      Can you advise what happens if you dont have a low end trade in phone either and dont send them back?

      I cannot seem to find out how to make it do a $1 trade in and its always makes it $10 and says the phone must have no marks etc with no option to put cracked screen in. I am a new trade in customer so not sure what to do.

      • zammr on 26/01/2025 - 17:18

        I believe the low end phones only offer the $1 value if you select that the phone has a cracked screen, as that's what I had done with the S9/S10+.

        When you go to check out and do the trade in details, IMEI etc it asks all these questions, my trade in value for these phones were originally $50 + $90 until I had selected that the phone has a crack.

        I actually have an S9+ with a crack and used that IMEI, but for the S10+ I just used a fake IMEI off Google. I have no intention of returning the phones and happy to be charged the $60 non return fees.

    Damn pissed off I didn't know about the upper/lower case GALAXY25/galaxy25 combos, for making seperate orders on EPP.
    Ended up buying the second phone without the extra accessory :(

  • Jeeyang on 26/01/2025 - 14:26

    I used 5% app discount last year. So I did not get 5% this year. Is there any way to get the 5% next year or this year if I want to buy another?

    • LostyJai on 26/01/2025 - 14:30

      Create a new Samsung account? I heard the 5% is automatically applied if you have no previous orders.

        A new account cannot access the education store. When I enter the education email, it says it was registered with my old Samsung account.

  • k1q on 26/01/2025 - 16:53

    Hi Ozbargainers! This is my first time doing the trade in trick (and not sending a device).

    Has anyone done this in the past and only gotten charged the $60? Is it possible for Samsung to charge us for the $550 (400+150) trade in bonus if we don't send in the phone?

    • Duece1995 on 26/01/2025 - 16:54
      +1

      No. You'll only be charged the $60 plus the trade in value of your device

      • k1q on 26/01/2025 - 17:01

        Thanks for the reaffirmation.

        That's interesting. I tried reading up on this outside of Ozb as well and I found that the policy in the US was different to what we have herre:

        "If you don't send us your old phone, you will still receive the device you purchased. * However, * you'll miss out on the bill credit trade-in value and promotional offer."
        (https://www.samsung.com/us/trade-in/frequently-asked-questio…)

          Done this last year for the S24 Ultra and was only charged the $60 fee, so I've done the same again this year.

          Wouldn't be surprised if these T&C's get updated here next time, these deals are getting more and more popular every year and they've cracked down now on refunding accessories in the order.

          • saintkam1 on 26/01/2025 - 19:15

            @zammr: Did they send you any email about how much they are going to charge you beforehand? Or just deducted the amount from your account?

              +1

              @saintkam1: Nope no emails and didn't even specify what the charges were going to be. Just had a few reminder emails to send it and then a few weeks afterwards saying they've charged a non return fee (which can be refunded if sending the device).

        I purchased this and it's arrived with stickers saying it's for 6.8 inch display whereas the S25U is 6.9

        Listing has both sizes listed so can only check once the phone has arrived

    • TanTheMan on 27/01/2025 - 04:18

      For the ultra you are also paying for the display upgrade to have the anti reflective coating, you will need to get a protector which is also anti reflective or you will negate out a very important feature of the phone

      Doesn't look like you got the $100 Commbank yello offer as you can get to $1963.17 without the $100 commbank discount.
      Cost using EDU pricing = $1879.20+$19.50+$239.40+$779.40 = $2917.5
      Minus these discounts
      $2917.50 - $1 iphone 8 trade in - $400 Bonus trade in - $150 Bonus trade in - $200 galaxy2025 - $100 from $20 voucher = $2066.50

    I'm beginning to regret doing the trade in. Looks like circumstances has changed I have to lend it to a relative. I will get it back one day, old and scratched probably.

    If I don't return this (I accept will get charged the trade-in value + $60) does it mean the IMEI will be blocked forever and can't be used in again in any trade-in ?

    • 0 0 0 on 27/01/2025 - 17:45

      Yes, once you attempt a trade in and don't send it in then it gets blocked for all future trades. Throws a random error that the support folk can't fix.

    • hanofee on 27/01/2025 - 17:59

      Why the regret? U can’t use the same IMEI for future trade-in regardless. Even if u return ur S25, the folks at Asurion probably have no clue on how to undo it. Just move on

      • adventurer on 27/01/2025 - 18:46

        By the time i get the phone back I won't be able to use the same IMEI next year for another trade-in event… sigh…

    So the devices should start shipping tomorrow based on previous years.

      That'd be great, it still shows "Dispatches from 6th Feb" though but hopefully it ships before that

          Last years release date (ship date) was 29th Jan for orders from Samsung.

          I just checked my invoice from last year, i ordered the S24U on the 18th Jan 2024

    • Saiya on 27/01/2025 - 21:02

      Ah bugger if I knew that was the case I would have gotten the normal black rather than the Samsung.com only Jetblack. ETA is ship from 20/2.

      • OZBsince2018 on 27/01/2025 - 22:02
        +2

        I ordered Jetblack on 23rd Jan 9pm. Showing ship from 6th Feb.
        Don’t worry you won’t regret jetblack as its full black (including the sides) whereas all other colors have only back colors different and sides are all titanium color, which on normal black looks a bit ugly, although will be hidden if you use a case.

        • lplau on 28/01/2025 - 21:23

          there is a downside to having the black sides also, because if you scrape or scratch it or wear down over time then it will start to show titanium color.

          Samsung store doesn’t deal with orders placed online. I tried that last year, but they told me I have to return the phone by creating a return via online store only. So just be mindful of this.

      • rlytoasti on 28/01/2025 - 00:31

    What are shipping times like usually? Was a bit late and pre-ordered just now. On the invoice it says ships from 6th, order details page says ships from 10th, not sure what that's about. I am slightly concerned as I'll be on holiday overseas on the 18th
