Samsung’s next Unpacked event is taking place on February 25, and we expect the company to announce the Galaxy S26 lineup of phones. Some new wearables and earbuds may also be announced. In addition to showing off the new hardware, the Galaxy AI software is likely to be a big part of the show, as that’s the focus of the Unpacked sizzle reel.
If you’re excited for the new devices — enough to consider trading in your phone — Samsung is hosting some special trade-in features, but only if you register interest in preorder before the event. And Keep shopping after the unveiling later this month. Now registering through Samsung’s site or its Shop Samsung app will unlock a $30 use-or-lose-it credit that can be applied toward accessories upon preorder. However, this cannot be used to reduce the cost of a new device.
The company is also offering up to $900 of trade-in value for your phone if you preorder one of its new phones in the same transaction. This amount is on top of its current prices, which go up to $700 if you have an S24 Ultra to trade in. Regardless of make or model, your old phone must meet certain eligibility requirements, including (but not limited to) that it has no damage beyond normal wear and tear. The expected trade-in value will be applied at checkout. Whether you’re ready to trade in your phone or not, it might be worth checking out Samsung’s site once the pre-orders launch to entertain the company’s trade-in offer.
