It's on again. Same as this deal from a couple of months back: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/909610

I'm not sure what vouchers Samsung chat are currently offering, but it would be worth asking. It was possible to get the price as low as $349 with vouchers last time.

The Tab S9 has an 11" AMOLED screen, Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset and comes with an s-pen.

This price is for the 128/8GB wifi version. Remember that you need a trade in device to get the $300 trade in bonus. The final price (without additional vouchers) will be $499 minus the value of your trade in device.

    @marshmall0w2 saying "scamsung" in 3, 2, 1….

      Oh sorry my fan, didn't see this. SCAMSUNG.

  • I managed to get the 256gb 12gb ram for only $17 extra from edu portal, around a week ago.. for whatever reason it was posted by another user but mods marked it as unattainable.
    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/16757145/redir

    • Yes. Mods unpublished it even though I checked that the price was correct on checkout

      • +1

        It's definitely obtainable as well as my daughter is now using it.
        I think your post was also about an hour after I made that comment. So it worked.

        • I dont think its obtainable anymore. Just checked and price is not 50% off

  • Confused.. Checkout says $799 not $499.

    Poster says "The final price (without additional vouchers) will be $499 minus the value of your trade in device."
    So without a trade in - is it $499 or $799?

    • +1

      $799 with no trade in discount.

      You can get the 128gb wifi model for $440 with the chat 10% discount + trade in bonus.

      What I am wondering is if the 256gb model can still be bought on the edu portal for $517

      • Just checked and it comes up for $688 on the edu store.

        • I see it for $775 and trade in is only $200 so non edu is the better deal.

        • Ok so the 256gb model is $620 on normal store, with 10% discount + trade in bonus

    • $799 with no trade in. When you add a trade in device you get the $300 trade in bonus.

      • Ah.. so the Trade-In BONUS is credited to your account, to be used for another purchase?
        Not actually discounting the amount you pay for this Tablet. But for next purchase..

        • incorrect. You get the discount on the same transaction.

          • @wombat81: Hmm still confused.

            Website says "Get an instant discount between $5 - $735 when you Trade-In your old tablet! Plus, receive a Guaranteed Trade-In credit of up to $300 with any eligible Trade-In"

            If i pick a Samsung Watch with trade in value $5, $5 gets discounted when I check out, $799-$5.
            If i pick a more modern mobile, then I can get UP TO $735.

            Confused what this "$300 trade-in Bonus" is then.. Can you pls explain?

            • @Futurist: When you add a trade in device, you get an additional $300 discount. So your $5 watch gets you a $305 discount.

              Just go and try it.

              • @wombat81: Ah i see now.. thank you for your patience <3

                • @Futurist: no problem

                  • @wombat81: Sorry another question! If people don't have a trade in device but want the trade in bonus are they just selecting the lowest trade in device (eg $5). Not send anything in and cop the $5 + $60 fee?

                    • @Futurist: Correct, but it would be $5 + $30 fee for a low value device, I believe.

  • +1

    Lowest I can get is 399

    799-300 for trade bonus - $100 using an old trade in voucher. -$1 device

    $100 and 10%off aren't stacking

    The $50 eofy voucher from the previous deal is no longer applicable

  • What should I tell them to get 10% discount via chat?

    • Literally that. Is there a voucher available

    • I got mine by saying I am interested in buying the tab s9. They immediately jumped and threw the 10% voucher my way pushing me to make the purchase now.

      Maybe let them know youre thinking of buying it soon it should do the trick

      • were you able to use $100 voucher as well?

        • $100 voucher works if you have one previously from 1-2 months ago

  • So the S pen doesn't hide within the body of the tablet, only attaches to the back (with magnets I'm assuming)?

    • correct

    • Don't know of any tab that hides style

      • Just the Galaxy S Ultra phones.

      • My old Samsung galaxy tablets from about a decade ago can have their s-pen hide inside the body of the device itself.

    • It hides if you buy an official cover

  • How much do I get charged if I do not send the trade-in device?

    .

    • +1

      Depends, it could be $0, $30, or $60.

      • Would the trade in bonus be cancelled and Samsung will charge more?

        • +2

          Nope, separate companies, Samsung honour the trade in promotion they offer regardless if you send it in or not.

        • No bonus stays.

          Could or could not be hit with non return fee.

          Personally I've never see it charged on my cc, despite the numerous emails they send about sending the trade in unit.

          • +2

            @krisspy: Edit:

            No, bonus stays.

            Poor punctuation totally flipped my comment there.

    Last 11" oled tablet from samsung.

    • No the s10+ sold poorly so now they're bringing back 2 11 inch tablets instead and cancelling the + version. It'll be S11 base, s11 ultra and s10 Lite. The s10 Lite may not be Oled

      • Now they should release a iPad mini size tablet

        • I think that is a deep trap for Samsung. If they cannot find value in developing a plus model, they definitely will be losing money developing a mini tablet. The people asking for that size, wont want to pay more than a base model and just buy when its super discounted. It needs to be sold for as well as the 11 inch for economies of scale to work. Besides, they'll also be competing with their own fold phones. Complete bad idea all around.

  • If the s9 tab was released in 2023. Does that mean the stock you get are 2 yrs old, meaning the battery has been sitting idle and empty in its box for all this time?

    Does that result in a deterioration of the battery life, resulting in shorter lifespan?

    • Release and manufacturing are two different things, to your point, the manufacturing process still continues after release, they don't make a set amount then stop, so no you're not likely to get a device that's been sitting idle for two years.

    Bought. Thanks OP.

    Returning a Xiaoxin Pad Pro 2025 because several apps are buggy or doesnt work at all (like duolingo) after latest zui update.

    Rather stick with something reliable with global rom for now.

    • You're welcome

      • OP, how much did you pay?

        • Didn't buy one

  • anyone know how we can get the $100 trade in voucher

    • I received a 10% off voucher instead of $100 when i spoke with support via chat.

  • the $300 trade in isn't working for me…sighs but it was there yesterday when this deal was posted…they must be removing them or something

    • As in your device is no longer listed?

      I was going to trade in an ole iPhone SE but now only accepts Gen2 or later. I thought Gen1 was there yesterday when checking. Shame as it's a great deal but now don't have anything compatible to trade in. That put a sudden halt to things!

      • No they've removed the extra $300 tradein bonus like they did last week for the edu store when it was 50% off. live chat told me it's an error as the deal should be expired….even though I showed him screenshots that it expires 14th of Aug. Booooo

      • Nope, the trade in devices are the same however the trade in bonus amount simply doesn't get deducted off the price atm. Price shows as $789 now instead of $489.

        Hopefully this gets fixed

        • Apparently it's an error. I think they are removing it because people are still able to stack 10% codes on top of the tradein bonus and they are trying to stop that altogether.

          • @KupoHo: The 10% and trade in bonus (along with everything else) has always stacked and worked up until now though. Seems weird if they actually are trying to put a stop to it.

        • So it's not just me.. was about to pull the trigger on a tab s10 ultra before realizing shit went up by $500

      • You dont actually have to trade in anything….just say that you are and pay the late fee later when you dont submit your device.

        • True, but of course, one does need a "legit" trade-in item to go through the process (checks IMEI) etc. . Fair enough I suppose but without one, there isn't a way to get the additional $300 discount unfortunately.

          • +1

            @Borg: Not at all. You can type in any IMEI from a random generator

            • @Bk210: Good to know for next time, thanks for that. I did manage to do a tablet trade-in yesterday but it faied to give $300. Deal apparently expired and they won't honour it as noted in my latest comment below. :-(

              • +1

                @Borg: The extra $300 tradein is working again! Get in quick before they remove it again.

                • @KupoHo: Yeap I noted below that my cart which I left open from last night, suddenly had the $300 appear in it this afternoon. Very weird but not complaining, so I finalised it :-) Thanks for heads up, much appreciated.

  • Possibly issue is that they have setup 04/08/25 instead of 14/08/25 for bonus end date. Have escalated via support they said they are working on it. This is on all there shops not just EDU store.

      Trade in works again. Can be bought for $480 with a $10 trade in device

  • One apparently must trade in a "Tablet" to get the Bonus $300. I just tried with a watch. I get the $5 for it but not any $300 bonus. I spoke to chat who confirmed this as part of T&C and must be a tablet!.

    The Promo::Save more with Trade-In. Get an instant discount between $5 - $735 when you Trade-In your old tablet! Plus, receive a Guaranteed Trade-In credit of up to $300 with any eligible Trade-In. Offer ends 14 Aug 25.

    However, even with an old tablet, above states Plus, receive a Guaranteed Trade-In credit of up to $300 with any eligible Trade-In. So doesn't guarantee anything with the "Up To" wording. All rather confusing, can anyone here clarify as I tested with a tablet and again no $300?

  • Update: I contacted Samsung this morning and was told that this $300 promo is no longer available and that they were still waiting for management to get the Website updated!
    CS Noted: "we are very sorry for not getting the expected $300 trade in discount credit, and that there was nothing on their end that they could do to change this."

    All they could do was offer me a 10% discount which I already had regardless. They won't honour my tablet trade-in. Not good Samsung,.

    I have requested that this deal be marked as Expired as the deal is no longer obtainable.

    • Trade in value glitch is fixed. Can be bought again for $480 with a $10 trade in device

    • I'm still able to get the promo right now for the -300 which is interesting..using a gw 4 worth $5

      • Are you 100% certain? When I traded a tablet no credit was applied. CS agent confirmed only an hour ago that the $300 has expired and that Website needs updating to reflect this. Did you just do a trade in the last hour or so and see the trade value PLUS $300 bonus get added to your check-out cart?

        • Yes, I have it applied for both tab s9 and S10 ultra (500) rn using my spare watch

          • @asdaf1118: This morning yes? I don't want to try again as have already tested/traded twice now and had to cancel due to the $300 not being received after trade-in.

            • +1

              @Borg: It wasn't working early this morning, but it started working again before 11:00. I just purchased a Samsung S10 Ultra 256GB for around $900, and the trade-in value is $1.

              • @jimojr: How can you have a trade in value of $1?

                The lowest trade in item i see is $5.
