BONUSCARE

Looks like this popular deal posted by @TheLurker from last year is back.

Just register for the Samsung Unpacked event before the 2nd of February for the event which will be on at 5AM AEDT this year and Samsung will email you a unique code (which was BONUSCARE last year) which you can use to redeem Samsung Care+.

*Eligible recipients receive a voucher for bonus Samsung Care+ (SC+) when purchased in a single transaction from the Samsung online store and eligible Enhanced Partnership sites only, during the pre order period with the smartphone series unveiled at the 2023 Samsung Australia Unpacked event (from 02.02.2023 5am AEDT). Discount applies to one (1) x 2 year SC+ subscription, and does not apply to the swap fee. Subject to stock availability (including colour variants) at time of purchase.

Hoping for some good trade in deals to stack with this. Hope this helps someone.

      No one is forcing you to get a replacement phone for next to nothing.

      Try fixing that broken screen instead…

      I appreciated my Fold 2 being replaced, even got the fee waived as it took long.

        100% agree. $300 swap fee for my wife's S22 ultra, cheaper than I paid for a screen swap for my S21 Ultra (which ended up not working anyway!)

        • scuderiarmani on 11/01/2023 - 20:28

          And a hell of alot better than a screen replacement which is never the same as the original. Water protection drops off too I believe.

            @scuderiarmani: Definitely! I had many issues with my screen replacement, numerous issues with touch not registering being the biggest! Ended up giving up and trading it in when they had the trade in bonuses

            • Shahrasb on 13/01/2023 - 13:28

              @jdawgydawggy: Not judging or condescending here. Just wondering how your screens die on you, seemingly so often. I have had my screen play up only once and that was on a dinosaur Sony Ericsson K750i. That was 16 years ago and mobile screens have come a long way since. Even my misbehaving company HTC10 screen lasted loyally till its end days when its faulty battery gave out.

              • jdawgydawggy on 13/01/2023 - 14:14

                @Shahrasb: Mine got dropped onto some rocks while fishing, and my wifes was due to a 1 and 5 year old, but hers was a cracked camera lens, not screen. Previously, when I got my S10, it dropped from my top pocket when bending over (so it dropped about 70cm), with a rubberised case, and it still cracked. Go figure.

      • Thypeople on 11/01/2023 - 22:04

        One of the biggest issues I had, was registering the device within 30 days of purchase.
        All I got was the IMEI number is not registered. Or your details don't match our system.

        I spent over a month chasing Samsung to mark my order compete and pass over the details to the 3rd party Asurion (aka SC+)

        That's the issues I had, so Buyers beware and read the T&C's carefully.

          Yes. I remembered that the same painful experience due to their system issue. Hope Samsung won't have the same issue this year.

        • furythree on 12/01/2023 - 19:40

          if they artificially hold you up, i think its fair to report them to ACCC

          also they should be reported anyway for the super dodgy unclear instructions to register for SC+

    • Jamie007 on 12/01/2023 - 21:22

      I got bonus Samsung Care with my Z fold 3. When it fell out of my pocket and the screen smashed I was sure glad I had it. Better to pay $300 than $700 for a replacement screen (the current listed price on the Samsung website).

            +6

            @akula: It will be Snapdragon worldwide. But from what I heard from leaks so far, S23 might be using the overclocked version of the gen 2 chip, it might be manufactured by Samsung Fab instead of TSMC, then it might be bad at energy efficiency and heat just like gen 1 chip. But Gen 1+ was manufactured by TSMC, so it was significantly better.

            So we will have to wait and see

            Edit: so I just got negged for sharing, what I have seen so far?

                    I still want the ultra for its 100 times and the new nightograpy. I also miss the customisation and the open system in android bad since I had iPhone two years ago. And I just can’t stand the notch anymore. It’s an eyesore. It works well but I want my screen estate. Samsung also fixed their fingerprint sensors now. It works really well.

    Get an Amex card people, either the Explorer card or the no annual fee essentials card, both have phone screen insurance inc for free as long as you either pay your phone bill with the card or buy the phone outright with the card. I've used it a couple of times now (well, my wife has lol) and it's been great.

    • Coops1 on 11/01/2023 - 20:13

      If you break your phone you can pay a fee to get a replacement phone. Cheaper than repair.

      I'd never pay for it, but nice to have for free.

    Samsung default warranty is 2 years anyway so this a gimmick. Most phones wont have problems until after 2 years. Their OS and ram memory will be obsolete by then. More likely the problem.
