This year’s
Samsung direct is generally the best place online to preorder an unlocked Galaxy phone. Not only do you get a phone that’s free of bloatware, you can take advantage of a combination of instant savings, bonus Samsung credit for your next purchase, and generous trade-in values. Amazon does have a bonus gift card, however, that makes getting the base storage models worth it.
For those of you who had placed a reservation online in advance of Galaxy Unpacked, you can cash in on additional savings in the form of a bonus $50 Samsung credit and bigger trade-in values.
