              +10

              @CodeXD: Cheap privacy screen protectors do not disable wide-angle pixels, they cause grainy texturing, overall screen dimming, they scratch easily, and they can reduce fingerprint sensor performance. So not really the "same thing" but it's a cheaper option than buying the S26 Ultra.

              • Whiplash on 27/02/2026 - 02:36

                @SiliconeFries: Get decent $30/2unit privacy ones that give great optics, fingerprint compatibility and are and absolute sinch to put on. I'm presonally recomending the magic john one over almost a decade of being a whitestone fanboi.

                  @Whiplash: Hard pass. Flagship screens are too gorgeous to sully with 'protectors'. My S25 Ultra's screen is still in perfect condition after a year of naked use.

                    @SiliconeFries: Now you've said that you'll probably drop it.
                    Tempered glass protectors are fine, been using them for years. A screen is a screen but will cost a decent amount to replace.

              +13

              @CodeXD: These are individual pixels built into the hardware that you can also apply to specific notifications or the lock screen if you'd like. The two are not comparable, this is new tech that you can toggle. It hasn't been implemented in a smart phone previously. I don't think anyone even knew it was possible. People ask for innovation, when it's implemented they complain. Apple will be frothing at the mouth to add something so technically beautiful.

              • itsmoe on 26/02/2026 - 12:06
                +1

                @spacemannn: Yes but based on some initial first thoughts, apparently the overall performance of the screen compared to the S25U, it's not that great. And apparently it makes the resolution look horrible. Might not notice it but it's a down side.

          +1

          Also with a stick-on privacy screen if you tilt to landscape and you're wearing polarised sunglasses, the screen will be blacked out. Apparently the inbuilt privacy screen uses circulated polirisation, so it won't be blacked out if you tilt it whilst wearing polarised sunnies

          • G-Shock on 27/02/2026 - 10:32

            @JediG: Yes that would be annoying AF.

      With the code stacking.

      • Butt Scratcher on 27/02/2026 - 07:09

        It doesn't seem too bad to me either, especially compared to other brands.

        Seems about the same as last year, although I JB HI FI deal was the one to go for last year.

          If you read the comments, there were people in there that were getting the Ultra for $600 after all the trade in bonuses and code stacking etc. I get that this might seem like a good deal still compared to the inflated RRPs but previous years were definitely a lot better, there were only like 2 codes this time that weren’t targeted and one was for accessories only..

          • Butt Scratcher on 28/02/2026 - 08:44

            @BepisCola: Youve read it, why not link it the $600 s25 ultras?

              • Butt Scratcher on 28/02/2026 - 10:12

                @BepisCola: You're replying to a comment talking about the Ultra, I also explicitly mentioned the Ultra. You yourself talked about the ultra

                You linked a base s25

                • BepisCola on 28/02/2026 - 11:26
                  -2

                  @Butt Scratcher: Oops must have misread. On page 2 there is a comment which is about the Ultra for $800ish. That’s still a lot better than this year. Either way I think its obvious the phone itself is not worth the RRP - you can get something like an Oppo Find X9 Pro from Singapore for like $1300 which is a much better phone imo.

      • G-Shock on 28/02/2026 - 09:56

        Yeah people forget you can sell your previous phone for good money.

        It was still easier in the old pixel days when they were $999 and you could stack all the trade in and preorder vouchers and get gift vouchers and extras.

  • Wizard on 26/02/2026 - 05:17

    This years deal is lame. Only a $100 off voucher and $200 accessories voucher.

    In past years usually $500 cheaper with stacking vouchers.

    And no jota form for a free watch.

    Hard pass.

    • dealsucker on 26/02/2026 - 08:57

      But the pricing starts with 25% off already. I mean $1281 is less than what I paid for S25 Ultra last year. If I also include Buds 4 Pro, its $1352. Again not bad at all.

    • xrailgun on 26/02/2026 - 12:04

      The phone itself is lame. it's a mid-ranger in all aspects but the SOC. Samsung is now early days Xiaomi at ~2-3x the price. IMO very hard sell vs the usual ~$300 moto phones. You're paying about $800 for just the SOC, and even slower charging.

    • noshopping on 26/02/2026 - 12:35

      Ram/ssd prices have skyrocketed from record AI demand. No need to offer amazing deal to us plebs when big business is throwing money at them.

    • G-Shock on 27/02/2026 - 07:21

      @Wizard the price is 25% off to start with.

      Anyway the s25u is still going strong and not interested in these very mild updates this time. I wanted to get rid of the square corners of the S24u though.

      The JB deal [hack] is only good when you cancel the plan.

    • ChipsChicky on 28/02/2026 - 13:28

      how do you know there won't be jota form and does it used to have a cap/limit in past or anyone who pre-ordered was able to use it?

        the benefit of the trade in was getting the $400-$500 bonus on top of the value of the item. no one was trading anything in for the trade-in value itself.

    Plus 1st month plan cost $99

    Total Cost for S26U 512GB: $1,356.33

    They also have a trade-in bonus offer of $300 for any $1 device trade-in value, but usually trade-in deals are a hit and miss to stack with Telstra deals. Some stores allow some don’t.

      Can You Stack Galaxy S26 Pre-Order Offers At JB?
      You bet. JB’s letting you double up on value, so if you’re grabbing the new Galaxy S26 Series, you can stack the BYO promo and the trade-in offer to lock in even more savings. Bring in an eligible phone and switch to a JB Mobile plan? That’s the move.

      What doesn’t stack? The $100 EOI coupon. That one doesn’t apply if you’re using trade-in

      • OZBsince2018 on 26/02/2026 - 06:23

        Based on last year’s experience, trade in deal and telstra voucher deal wasn’t stackable. However, pre-order $100 voucher does stack with either of the deals.

    • segap21 on 26/02/2026 - 06:43

      Where did you get the ETC amount of $958.33 from?

      Because according to https://www.telstra.com.au/help/critical-information-summaries/personal/mobile/mobile-plans/jb-hi-fi-mobile-upfront-plans the base voucher amount is $800, with a possible $300 bonus voucher amount added. I'm not sure if this deal will trigger the $300 bonus voucher amount - in any case, it seems your ETC calculation is based of a total $1,000 voucher amount and I don't know where you got that from?

      • OZBsince2018 on 26/02/2026 - 06:56

        Its been $1,000 since last year. It used to be $800 before. So $1,000/24*23=$958.33 would be the ETC.

        • segap21 on 26/02/2026 - 07:01

          I understand the mathematics; just wary of it being $1,000 this year, if what you are saying is you are assuming it's the same as last year?
          That doesn't seem to match the details in the CIS

          • BargainsGrabber on 26/02/2026 - 07:45

            @segap21: The CIS won’t change because there’s an upsize offer. It’ll remain as max $1000(pro rata)

            • segap21 on 26/02/2026 - 07:54

              @BargainsGrabber: My point is that the CIS states the Maximum Voucher Repayment Fee to be "up to $1,100". Why is it "max $1,000"? The only explanation offered thus far is from OZBsince2018 saying:

              Its been $1,000 since last year

              so I'm guessing you're assuming it's the same this year despite the CIS suggesting otherwise?

              I'm really hoping it is only $1000 and not $1100 because I'm wanting to buy this from JB Hi-Fi, but not going to take the plunge until I get concrete information to confirm this either way.

                @segap21: You can go to JB and ask them for "concrete" info

                @segap21: Ask them to print out the CIS for you before signing anything

        Yep definitely changed to $1100 in the past month

      If you trade in $100 voucher won't stack.

      I have a JB Telstra plan currently, the offer looks to be for new customers only. Could i just cancel my current plan and port my number to another carrier for a few days, then buy the new JB plan with s26?

        Get a $2 SIM and get a new number and go in and sign up for the deal. It is a deal only if you cancel, so you can cancel the plan and throw away the new number after using it for 1 month.

          I'm trying to keep the plan so unfortunately it won't work.

          excluding any service that has been active on a Telstra, JB Hi-Fi, The Good Guys, or Boost plan at any time in the 30 days before the transfer)

          Does anyone know another solution?

      Does anyone know which stores are willing to stack tradein? I would do this deal

      • OZBsince2018 on 26/02/2026 - 21:33

        All stores as its how they are marketing both the deals.

    WTF man… I signed up to all the galaxy pre order forms like x5 and I got 0 emails with codes…. :(

    Edit: I just realised its irrelevant, spent ages going through chat troubleshooting on samsung site and the code they gave me for galaxy pre launch sign up anyhow through chat is the GALAXYAI code which is freely accessible to anybody
