We purchased an unlocked S22 ultra direct from Samsung for the wife at launch in early 2022. The trade-in offers for the s23 and 24 at launch were lukewarm at best so we didn't upgrade.
I was browsing the Samsung app this weekend and saw they had a sale on the s24 ultra with a free upgrade to 512GB and were offering $700 trade for the S22U. They also had a veterans program offer where they threw in a Galaxy watch 6 for free. It cost $539 after trade for a $1400 MSRP phone and a watch.
I can sell the watch for $200 so the net cost for a flagship phone will be about $350. Not a bad deal for a replacement of a nearly 3 year old flagship phone.
The s25 launch will be in a few months, but l don't anticipate any groundbreaking changes. This was too good of a deal to pass up.
