Formally unveiled back in January and commercially released almost a month ago at a list price of $1,300 and up, the Galaxy S25 Ultra hasn't exactly been hard to score at a discount... under certain conditions. Namely, Samsung allowed early adopters to easily keep their spending in check with the right trade-in, while retailers like Amazon and Best Buy threw in handy gift cards at no extra cost.
But now the time has come to save big without jumping through any hoops or getting cool but perhaps unnecessary freebies. Yes, the unlocked S25 Ultra is marked down by a killer 200 bucks on Amazon in both 256 and 512GB storage variants and a wide range of color options.
Does this sweet new discount make probably the best Android phone in the world conventionally affordable as well? Not even close. But it does improve an already amazing value proposition, making it even more competitive against Apple's iPhone 16 Pro Max (which is obviously pretty much impossible to come by at a comparable discount with no strings attached).
One important detail to remember before pulling the trigger here is that Samsung is planning to kick off a sitewide Discover sales event later today, so while the Galaxy S25 Ultra is available at its regular prices from its manufacturer at the time of this writing, that could definitely change in a matter of hours.
A $200 discount with no special requirements naturally goes a long way in changing our S25 Ultra review tone. If we initially felt a little underwhelmed by a largely repetitive (super-premium) handset, it's now pretty easy to considerably boost those excitement levels and wholeheartedly recommend a purchase before it's too late.
Everything from that undeniably stunning 6.9-inch display to the state-of-the-art Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, mind-blowing 200 + 10 + 50 + 50MP quad rear-facing camera system, and unrivaled long-term software support becomes more impressive at these newly reduced prices, not to mention how hard it now is to recommend buying the slightly more affordable Galaxy S25+ or even the significantly cheaper "vanilla" S25.
