The mighty Galaxy S24 Ultra and its smaller siblings were all on sale at Amazon. Prime members could save $360–373 on different storage configurations. The Galaxy S24+ was $250 off, and the vanilla model dropped by some $200 in price.

The recently launched Galaxy S24 FE arrived without discounts. However, users could get it with a $100 Amazon Gift Card. The best part? The promo was available to everyone, not just Prime members.

If you had your eye on the Z Flip 6, Prime Day in October was a great time to buy one. The model was $250 off during the event, and some colors remained $248 cheaper than usual even after the 48-hour sale.

The Galaxy Z Fold 6, naturally, was also part of the fun. Prime Big Deal Days got this bad boy's price tag reduced by $500. Over at the Samsung Store, users could save a jaw-dropping $1,500 on the 512GB model with an eligible trade-in.

Users on a budget are in for a treat as well! Why? Because Samsung's latest Galaxy A phones are also on sale. During Day 1 of the Prime Day in October event, users could save $102 on one of the best mid-range phones from Samsung, the Galaxy A35 5G. Day 2 of the event, believe it or not, saw it at an even higher $115 discount, landing it at its best price ever.

The Galaxy A25 5G was also in the mix, so you could get this one for $50 less. For Galaxy A54 shoppers, Best Buy launched a smashing $200 discount, with an extra $100 off available with trade-ins.

The Prime Big Deal Days event also gave users a $100 discount on the Galaxy S23 FE. While not ultra-enticing, this deal was worth checking out, as the model was previously available at its standard price for several weeks. 

The Z Flip 5 with 512GB of storage was available just under $800 instead of almost $1,120, saving you $320. Prime Day also gave us a $545 price cut on the previous generation book-style foldable Galaxy Z Fold 5.

Amazon Prime Day in October, dubbed Prime Big Deal Days, started on October 8 and ended on October 9. 

How much can you save on Samsung phones during Prime Day?


Quite a lot! As we mentioned, discounts for foldables were as high as $500 (or $1,500 with trade-ins), while flagship models' price tags dropped by at least $200. In other words, Samsung phones get deep price cuts on Prime Day events, so getting one will give you loads of savings.
