If you just buy the phone and not use any amount of that $150, then Samsung would send you coupon code, but when you pick at least 1 accessory, then there is no coupon code. - I think it is gone. You can try Samsung support, but from my experience it is pretty much useless.
I did experiment with few different options before actually ordering.
1) I picked Note 10, then picked which phone to trade in and on accessory screen, I said not to the notification box. Then the message said "we will just send you the code" and this $150 coupon card indeed was as an item in my cart for later use.
2) I picked Note 10, then picked which phone to trade in and on accessory screen, I picked 1 case and nothing else. My cart included: Note 10, trade in device and the case I picked.
3) I picked Note 10, then picked which phone to trade in and on accessory screen, I picked couple of cases and wireless portable battery charger to make it up to that $150

You can order anything on Shop Samsung I think, not just phone items.

It should, but my it's not showing my $25 balance on the shopping cart. I should've used all of it at once!

It is a one time use. I reserved pre-ordered and got the additional $50, so I have $200 to use in one shot. I'll probably end up going over. However I'm also trying to hold off until they release the Samsung Marvel Smart Cases for the Note 10+. I want that Iron Man case.

Samsung rebate on Edge?

I see Samsung $200 rebate on Note 4. Would they have a similar rebate on Edge as well? Or since this will be limited edition they might not.

They will do the same thing but when you get down to it its not worth it.
What they are saying in the fine print.
You must trade in a working phone that has a trade in value of $10 or more.
They will only give you a prepaid visa card for the difference.
So if you trade in a iphone 5 and they give you $200 for it. Then samsung will give you nothing.
If you trade in a LG flex and say they give you $150 for it. then samsung will give you the rest to make it 200 which would be $50.
Also you have to wait a few weeks after submitting all the paper work to get it.
I normally just sell my old phone on ebay and get way more money.
Ive S4. At&t version, unlocked. I do not think I can get more $200 for it, so I'll just trade in in case there is a rebate/trade-in program .
You should use Swappa (xda-developers online marketplace). Especially if it bootloader unlocked, means more valuable and I would not give those away to recyclers. Finite number of bootloader unlocked s4's out there.
I really wish price being in this range, Samsung gives some trade in rebate.

And I am one of the lucky unlocked S4 guys. Thinking about holding on to it as a spare since it's such a good phone. I still have my bootloader unlocked i777 too....thinking about holding onto that as well... these things are hard to find.
About the rebate...I'd just pick up an Iphone 4 and use that as a trade in.
Why Samsung is not offering rebate like they did for Note 4 and S5.

questioned about third party batteries for Note 4

Hi XDA'ers,
I've skipped the Note 3 and Galaxy S5, but already pre-ordered the Note 4 on Verizon. Still not a fan of faux leather though, Note 4, IMO, going to be the phone of this year! Since its battery upgraded from 3200Ah in Note 3 to a 3220Ah in Note 4 is almost imperceptible, my plan is to have one extended battery from MPJ or ZLemon, or get several replacements. When do these third-party companies usually launch their products for a new phone?

he can just use the code R1H01X01 to get 50% off, plus $3.95 shipping. no need to register right away, since all he'll get is a 50% coupon code that expires in 2-3 months.

BestBuy Matches Samsung Rewards Offer

Just wanted to drop a quick line here to tell you all that BestBuy will accept and match the 50% off any $50 accessory coupon you get from Samsung after registering the device. Best of all, it doesnt use up your coupon code (Note sure if the codes are unique or not) so you could reuse it on Samsung's website later. Options are slim right now, but I did just pick up an S-View case for mine for $26 after taxes. Unless you go for the non-Samsung knock offs, you wont find them for a better price.
Take care all!

based on my experiences with BB, it is definitely YMMV, especially when there's a coupon involved.

Yeah, it really depends on the associates. If you tweet out to Best Buy Support, you'll get an official answer via policy. But if a store wants to drive accessory revenue or something, then they will make exceptions.

This will be great if I can get it done on my local BB since I really wanted Samsung Protective Case which is sold out online. But knowing my local BB..... I'll probably be turned down even if I got the Note 4 there few days ago.
How would one go about obtaining this price match deal? I really want the plum red s-view case which my best buy has in stock but I don't want to pay the preposterous price of 50$ for it? Thanks for any assistance

To up your chances, bring a webpage printout of the offer along with the terms and conditions. Show it to the person checking you out and you'll have a good chance. As always, YMMV with retailers.
I take it this is US only? No such deal for Canadians?
definitely YMMV. I took my print out there, and they told me to pound sand.
So is this offer real. I would love to see if they take it for smart watches.

Pre-order Samsung Trade in Value?

I thought all the reviews said up to $600 trade in but when I log in to do the pre-order the most I see is $450 for an S10+, and only offering $300 for my Note 9. What gives?
And the UK the opposite, banner says £350 max trade in but I was offered £400 for my Note 9!

I think it has to do with what carrier version you order. I ordered the Unlocked and got $600 for my Note 9.

Used $150 toward new Galaxy Watch down to $200 from $350 so, it will cost me $150 after the $50 bonus later on.
Traded in S10e for $600.
FUC$ING citibank keep blocking my charge! for fraud protection!
should have used a different credit card instead !

Best Buy gives you $600 for an S10+ - but the difference is, Samsung will also give you a $200 credit for accessories - so it is the same deal - just presented differently. I went with Best Buy. I don't need the accessories.

samsung give you 600$ for s10+ **PLUS** 200$ credits for accessories. i getting wireless galaxy bud (already have one from s10+ but it' free, why not), plus LED back cover for free.
UPDATE: i really like the wireless galaxy bud, it stays in my ears. the WIRED included ear buds always falling off my left ears. and those headset over your head makes my head hurts.

Samsung didn't offer me $600 - they offered $450. I got the branded ATT varient because it is more compatible with ATT enhanced services.
So for me - it was about the same as Samsung;s Deal - Plus you can only get that cool blue color from Best Buy - another plus for me - but maybe not for everyone.
If you like the Samsung deal better that's cool -

Well crap. I didn't see that. That means the Galaxy Watch wouldve been basically free for me. Oh well.
You guys are lucky.... 200$+ a value for your "old" phone...... Just simulated my "return", 100% NEW (from warranty) Note8 and they will refund me 310€ (347,42$) and NO acessories .......
The new Note 10+ (256GB) prices are around 1130€ (1266,69$) unlocked..... Carrier wise is the same price..... Definitly NOT worth it!!!!! Even with the possibility paying it in 24 months (for a phone!!!)....... Almost forgot that the wages here in PT are very, very,very low so its possible that more then 75% is sold on credit........
So if i want to upgrade i will have to wait untill xmas and hope that this will take a dive in price at that time, for now its just reading reviews and opinions.....

Try ordering with different browser, I couldn't complete my order on Firefox, was going back and forth and the "submit" button didn't work, kind of 'greyed out', I think I had that problem before(also Citibank), so I used Chrome and it went right through. Firefox may not have the right https security certification.

I'm in the same boat as you.
I was really disappointed that Samsung had the $450 offer for my AT&T S10+, and had $200 to buy more stuff, and I REALLY tried to find something they had listed but I just couldn't find anything. So I cancelled my order with Samsung and went the Best Buy route, thanks for the great tip! It makes a super expensive phone a little easier to get.
Awww, nothing for my Galaxy Note 3
I am being offered 280 eur for my Note 9 128MB. That is downright ****ty offer.

I got $600 plus $150 accessory voucher.
My question is will it matter if I have an international snapdragon variant to trade and does anybody know how and when I will have to trade it?
Edit - I'm in the US btw. I ordered the unlocked note 10 plus.

I don't think it matters to them, they only specify the model in general and talk about condition of the device. Am gonna take care of documenting the condition of my return with lots of pics, record Serial # etc. Someone said that Samsung outsourced the returns to 3rd party people, who knows where the returned stuff goes, but I am sure it's all for profit and they might try to 'stiff' us a little here and there to knock some bucks from the promised $600.
I found the details on trade in email from Samsung, we have to wait for now 'til we get the phones:
Quote: " For a limited time only, on Samsung.com/Shop Samsung App, pre-order or purchase a new qualifying Galaxy NOTE10 or NOTE10+ device ("Qualifying Purchase"), send in your qualifying trade-in device to Samsung through the Samsung Trade-In Program, and if Samsung determines your trade-in device meets all eligibility requirements, you will receive a trade-in credit specific to your qualifying trade-in device to apply toward your Qualifying Purchase. Device models that currently qualify for trade-in and trade-in credit amounts associated with those models are available on Samsung.com and the Shop Samsung App; eligible models and amounts may change at Samsung's sole discretion. To be eligible for trade-in, your qualifying device must meet all Trade-In Program eligibility requirements, which include, but are not limited to, that the device powers on, holds a charge, and does not power off unexpectedly; has a functioning display; has no breaks or cracks in the screen (unless a cracked screen offer applies); has no breaks or cracks in the case; has no liquid damage (whether visible or not); has no other defects that go beyond normal wear and tear; is not on a black list; has a verified FCC ID; has been reset to factory settings; has all personal information removed; has all software locks disabled; and is owned by you (leased devices are not eligible). Anticipated trade-in value will be applied as a credit at time of purchase, but, if you do not send in your trade-in device within 15 days of receipt of your Qualifying Purchase, you will be charged back for the trade-in credit applied to your purchase, or if you send in your trade-in device within 15 days of receipt of your Qualifying Purchase but Samsung determines your device does not meet all eligibility requirements, you will be charged back for the trade-in credit applied to your purchase minus $25. Participation in this program does not excuse you from contracts with your carrier or retailer (or any related payments or fees) for the device that was traded in. Limit 1 trade-in per Qualifying Purchase. Samsung reserves the right to modify or discontinue this offer at any time. The Trade-In Program cannot be combined with any other Samsung, carrier or retailer promotions, discounts, or offers unless specifically provided for in the terms and conditions of such offers. Additional terms, including terms that govern the resolution of disputes, apply."

I just preordered 2 through AT&T and I am wondering the same thing. The only thing AT&T told me was they were waiving the activation, which I alreadyget through their signature program discount through my employer. So not much of a promo there for me.
I ordered direct from Sammy and received at $150 freebie accessory purchase and then another email with an additional $50 deduct for the pre-registration. Sammy also throws in 6 mos of Spotify and 4 months of YouTube premium.
Same here Gargamel. Ordered At&t at midnight. I saw something about HBO...lol what! Who cares give us something useful

Got this same promo when they opened up ordering.
I ordered from Samsung. Got 550 of my Note 9, 200 dollar credit to be used on the site, 6 months of spotify and 4 months of youtube premium. I find it interesting when I preordered I got 200 dollars, yet they are now giving a 150 dollar credit.
if you use Rakuten app or the plug in for chrome.
you can get 10% cashback but you cant use that extra 50$ credit.
but you still getting 100$ credit for note20 and 150$ ultra note20.
i ordered ultra note20, i'm supposed to get back 67$, that' more than that 50$ credit.
After you pre-ordered, did you get the extra $50 or a little while after? I just pre-ordered 2 phones and got 150 for ultra and 100 for 5g, att USA.

No, it never show there's a 50$ credit.
I read somewhere that you can get the 150 off accessories even if you preorder from a carrier. Not 100% if that's true or not.
Vodafone gives galaxy buds live.
ATT is running a hell of a deal, i have an S9+ and they offered me $1000 for an upgrade on an unlimited plan. I was already signed onto the Unlimited Elite, so upgrading to the Note 20 Ultra for $10 a month for 30 months on the promo pricing was worth it.
Dont know if its for everyone or just those with the old corporate FANs, i still have my old Sears Holdings fan attached to my account. Its like a collector's item these days.

When I pre-registered to pre-order, I got a $50 credit. Then when I pre-ordered I got an additional $150 credit, and I now have $200 credit. Both of those were described in emails from Samsung.
I just saw the AT&T deal. I immediately canceled my Samsung preorder and got it from AT&T. Thats a hell of a trade in deal for my note 9.
Just ordered the big dog 512 gb using the trade in program, getting $550 for my note 9 and also got $200 credit. Total came to less than $1k so I'm pretty happy
Here in the UK, a pre-order will get you a choice of either the new Xbox Game Pass Bundle (3-month membership, MOGA XP5 -X+ controller & wireless charger) with the Galaxy Note20 or Galaxy Note20 Ultra
or
A pair of Samsung Galaxy Buds+ in white (Galaxy Note 20) or the new Galaxy Buds Live (Galaxy Note 20 Ultra)
That's a pretty good offer!
.
Heads up
For those of you taking advantage of the 1,000 off from ATT, there are some things to think about..
You have to pay the device off or use the Next Up plan to be able to upgrade before the 30 month period. If you upgrade without NextUp, you will owe the payments in full, because the credits are only applied on a monthly basis.
If you use Next Up, you cannot use the Note 20 Ultra in another trade in deal. So if they do another 1,000 off next year for the new note, you wont be able to get that, you'll have to use the Next Up and pay the full payment plan of the new phone going forward (somewhere between 40 and 50 bucks per month).
The workaround to this is to buy a different phone second hand that hits the minimum trade in value for ATT. So you would trade in the Note 20 Ultra for the Next Up (this would satisfy the payment plan you are currently on without canceling all the credits, then you would trade in the second hand phone you purchased to get the 1,000 off or whatever the deal ends up being next time around.
Sorry if this seemed obvious to some, but this is kind of where they get you in the long run. If you plan on having the phone for 30 months, no big deal at all, but I tend to get a new one each year.

That makes sense, thanks. I tend to keep my phone for 2+ years (I have the Note 9 now) and I usually may them off way before. I would just use another trade in offer in 2 years and that may be with another carrier or Samsung.
Last time I used Samsung to get the Note 9 because they had the best trade in deal.
