Samsung Galaxy S21 pre-order deal: Save up to $700 with eligible trade-in

Samsung Galaxy S21 preorder deals are now live at Samsung's official online store. The Korean tech giant's latest flagship 5G phone comes in three versions— the 6.2-inch Galaxy 21 starting from $799.99, the 6.7-inch Galaxy S21+ from $999.99, and the 6.8-inch Galaxy S21+ Ultra from $1,199.99. However, Samsung has an incentive that lets you own its new handset for a fraction of the price. 

For a limited time, you can get the base model Samsung Galaxy S21 starting from $99.99 when you preorder the phone from Samsung. That's $700 off its normal price and one of the best phone deals out there. Even better, Samsung is tossing in a $100 credit to spend on accessories for your new Galaxy S21. To get this deal, you must trade-in an eligible Samsung, Apple or Google phone.

Samsung Galaxy S21 Pre-order deal

Newer phones like the iPhone 12, Galaxy S20, and Galaxy Note 20 series have the highest trade-in value. Previous gen phones like the iPhone SE, Galaxy S7 or Pixel 3a in good condition can net you between $200 to $550 off. And if your trade-in phone has a cracked screen, Samsung will give between $50 to $550 off depending on the model.

Samsung manufacturers some of the industry's best phones and the Galaxy S21 is the brand's most powerful device yet. 

The entry-level Galaxy S21 features a 6.2-inch, (2400 x 1080) 120Hz AMOLED 2X display, Snapdragon 888 octa-core CPU, 8GB or RAM and 128GB of ample storage. The phone's rear quad camera consists of 12MP AF (f/1.8), ultra wide: 12MP (f/2.2), and telephoto: 64MP (f/2.0) lenses with 30x zoom. 

Although we didn't test this phone, in our Galaxy S20 FE review, we liked its bright, 120Hz display, versatile camera, and overall excellent performance. 

Pre-orders for the Galaxy S21 ship by January 27 ahead of the phone's January 29 release date.
