[Pre Order] Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra 256GB $1,599 (New Customer Must Add Plan from $30/28-Day) @ amaysim

800

Update - Partner Programs are working out to be cheaper
Here is how I Used CBA Yello to get a cheaper deal -

Galaxy S26 Ultra 256 + Buds4 - $1243.12

  1. Acess partner portal via CBA Yellow
  2. Login to Samsung account for 5% first timer discount
  3. Add the phone and Buds
  4. Apply the vouchers listed below
  5. Pay with CBA card
  • Loyalty voucher - Download Samsung Members app and get voucher from there - $200 (or $100 for S26 and Plus)
  • Thank you voucher - if you have a samsung account and have opted for offers, you would have received it in email earlier in Feb. Otherwise try Samsung chat - $100
  • GALAXYAI code - $200 $50 (this only applies to accessories and adons)
  • YELLOS26 - $50

The above brings it down to $1243.12

Note 1 - There is a Amex $100 cashback offer available too. There is a trick on how to use it with CBA partner program
Note 2 - if using other partner programs, you can use paypal checkout for $50 cashback
Note 3 - If you do not want Buds, you can add other accessories or watch or a tab, but they must add on to $200 before GALAXYAI voucher can apply
Note 4 - You can also stack Trade-In on top, however there is no Trade in bonus on top and only the trade in value for the device is available.

    Is this the cheapest EASY way to buy a S26 Ultra 512Gb?

    • +1

      The amazon is 1894 with 300 discount in cart. But most colours soldout.

    • +2

      From all the deals and comments I've seen, yes.

    • +8

      If you have a CommBank card then you can get a better deal

      Ask for the $200 and $100 voucher from Samsung chat and use another $200 code GALAXYAI on accessories like buds4 pro

      • +8

        They said easy way

        • +2

          Ah yeah. 😂

          Still cancelling the auto renewal is hassle too.

          Probably buying the phone from Samsung website without the vouchers is the easiest option.

      • Although not easy but I kinda like it.

      • +2

        Thanks for this, took me 2 hours of going back and forth with the Samsung chat to get all the vouchers, but i finally managed to get there in the end :)

      • $200 and $100 voucher are separate?

        • yeah separate. one code starting with THY ($100) and another starting with 26C ($200).

      • How to ask live chat for $200 and $100 vouchers? Did you ask in the same chat or separate?

        • Just mention that you are after 2 vouchers to purchase the new phone. one code starting with THY ($100) and another starting with 26C ($200).
          Also these voucher codes can also be obtained via the Samsung Members app.

          • @Ted0525: How do you get the THY code through the members app? I tried asking chat but they said rego for the unpacking event closed 3 days ago so they cant generate.

      • Something feels iffy with sammy's. After adding a few accessories, removing them and just having Buds4 Pro, it gives me $1520.87. Yes, a dollar~ less than yours.

        • I ordered though Edu store and I paid $1520.87 for 26U 512 GB + Buds4 Pro

  • And how much JB is asking on their ticket price?

  • Downgrade over previous iteration?

    • +1

      Not a downgrade in Ultra model(except for Aluminium body instead of Titanium) but very minimal upgrade in terms of hardware over S25 ultra.

      • +2

        Still a downgrade over my S23 Ultra. Still waiting for an equivalent long optical zoom before I can upgrade.

        • Oppo find x9 ultra in a month ✔️

        • +1

          Same. I'm rocking the S23 U and after watching MKBHD's video, I'm not keen, even though the price is right.

    • Not a downgrade, but not much of upgrades. Here is a quick video covering everything.

    • 16GB ram only available with 1TB option.

    • Good on ya.

      Not for me though… i don't need any Buds

      • Even with out it, if you have a combank cc and Yelo, don't need to get buds

        • I do have CBA card but damn.. Yello i dont have. Used to have it then lack of acct activity made me lose it. But i know i did far more this month but yeah.. dont have it still

          • +1

            @JaxSantiago: I dont think you even need an active Yello status. As long as you pay with a CBA card, the YELLOS26 code stays active.

            • @alo1234: Oh. So one has to reach the Payment section before it becomes valid? Will give that a shot.

              • +1

                @JaxSantiago: Not really, if you go to the product via the CBA YELLO link above, applying the code YELLOS26 before payment would show you the discount. There's a banner up top saying you need to pay using CBA card for it to stick.

                • @alo1234: Indeed. Found it out last night. Was using another link. Thanks.

            • @alo1234: What do we lose if we don’t pay with CBA card? Just $50 of YELLOS26? I mean, can we still get it for 1573$ with any other card?

    • would the atm debit car works?

      • +1

        should work we got exact same deal at $1,523 last night and used CBA Debit Card. Did not activate anything or have active Yello.

  • +1

    No need to ask for it.
    You can generate your own one from the Samsung Members app. Haha

    Alternatively you can wait on chat for them to give you one.

    • +1

      Two different codes, one is a loyalty code (from chat or email) for $100off and then from the members app is $200 off. And they stack

    • Can you kindly share how this is done?

      • Just contact chat

  • -1

    Much cheaper through Samsung.
    Discount codes available from chat and the members app
    Plus use education, government, corporate or Commonwealth bank customer portals

    • I have already tried CBA yellow and for 5125b and 1tb models, it is not cheaper as the CBA discount is applied on the RRP, not the $300 discounted price Samsung have on their website.

      • Not sure what went wrong then.

        I ordered the S26 Ultra 256gb for $1200 (including $200 of accessories). So in theory only $1k for the phone without any tradein or anything like that.

        Does require stacking a few codes (one generic, one from the Samsung members app, and one from the live chat)

        • Which codes to get it to $1200?

    • any idea which has the best deal eg education vs government?

      • Historically edu was best. But this year seems education, government, CBA, and corporate are all the same.

        Technically edu and CBA have an extra $50 coupon so they're slightly cheaper

  • +2

    Still 12GB ram……..

    Only 1TB has 16gb ram…

  • Close to pulling the trigger on this.

    Galaxy S26 Ultra 1TB / 16GB
    Galaxy S26 Ultra Silicone Magnet Case
    50W Power Adapter Duo
    Magnet Wireless Charger
    Battery Pack - 10,000mAh, 25W, Two Type C ports

    ​ $1,777.88

    • so instead of the galaxy bud, you can instead buy accessories worth $200?

      • Yea, any $200 of accessories gets you the $200 off, not there is much of a choice, i just added case + 3 random things to get to $200.
        EditL just reliased i posted this in the wrong thread, this is the CBA offer.

      • Yep

    • where are you buying these?

  • $1,309.62 for the 256GB and buds4 Pro using the commbank stuff for anyone wondering how much it is

  • +2

    Pretty pointless rrp when there’s always a gazillion discounts on offer.

  • +2

    Should I wait for Xiaomi in 2 days? 😀

  • just spoke with chat and they said the loyalty coupons are all taken :/

    • download Samsung Members app if you have a Saumsung account, you should be able to generate th $100/$200 voucher there yourself

  • -2

    no idea why idiots every year say this is a bad deal
    but then again there are negative inane comments under every deal posted on this website

    last year traded s24u —> s25u for $415.60
    this year s25u —> s26u for $358.86

    maybe I missed a voucher last year?

    Multi-Buy Offer - 50% off RRP applied
    $100 Thank You code applied (SAMSUNG MEMBERS APP VOUCHER)
    Voucher applied - $50 discount YELLOS26
    Voucher applied! $200 Eco-Voucher discount GALAXYAI
    Voucher applied - $200 discount (UNiDAYS voucher)

    Galaxy S26 Ultra Slim Magnet Case + Galaxy S26 Ultra Clear Case + Galaxy S26 Ultra Clear Magnet Case

    happy with Buds FE so didn't see the need to upgrade

    • what is that Unidays voucher, how did you get that?

      • -2

        Its just the GALAXYAI voucher

        • No its not. Its from unidays. Its the thank you voucher that starts with THY-

    • +4

      You shouldn't factor trade in values as that is not a fair comparison.

      Last year I got the S25U 512GB with a case and watch 7 for $1,376.10 via the EPP store.

      This year the S26U 512GB with just the buds 4 pro comes to $1,523.37 via CBA EPP.

      The lack of trade in bonus kills this years deal. No I did not send in my old phone for trade in, I just copped the $1 fee.

      • It doesn't kill the value for people trading their old phone it appears such as myself, hence the figures above. Even cheaper than last year for me despite indexation and changes in computing hardware prices

        My point is if you go on last year's ozb post it's the same comments negative comments every year. I almost listened to them. Thankfully I didn't and spent time looking into how much the actual costs would be

    • +1

      Not many people seem to have acess to the UNiDAYS voucher, which is what makes your deal so good. Otherwise, this deal is avg compared to what was on offer last year. I too have Galaxy S25 Ultra 512gb and for me upgrading as you've done is over $550, whereas last year most people could access the Ultra upgrade for around $350 (same as you've obtained this year). I hardly think you're comparing apples and apples when you have a discount code unavailable to most punters.

  • I'll wait for the X300 Ultra or the Find X9 ultra.
    After being a loyal Sammy fan, I'm done with them. Same battery for 5 years and minimal camera updates, what a joke they are. Putting all their advertising into a privacy screen feature 🤣 crazy

    • Honestly the privacy screen feature was better than I thought it'd be, it works pretty well in person

      But yeah besides that no meaningful improvements over S25U

      All they're pushing is AI, AI and more AI

      • +1

        I'd choose a larger battery, faster charging, better cameras, faster & brighter display, better IP rating over it any day.

        Yeah having the privacy display as a feature is great, but when they keep everything else basically the same, they're having a laugh.

      • You can buy the privacy screen protector film for about $3

        • Yes, but you can't turn that screen protector film on or off; you can on the Sammie :)

          Again, that's really the only distinguishing feature of the whole phone compared to the S25U… and the 'downgrade' to an aluminium instead of titanium frame…

  • Best I could get with S26U 512GB + 2 Magnet Cases + 4 pack SmartTag2 is $1599.28.

    Chat's closed, so I can't ask for a $100 voucher. Will try tomorrow.

    I know the SmartTag2 is cheaper in Amazon but without it and the cases, the total is $1590.54….

    • If you have a Samsung account, You would have received an email earlier this month with a Thank you voucher.. It starts with THY.. try searching your mailbox.

      • I've applied $500 worth of coupon codes. S26, THY and GALAXYAI.

        Couldnt apply YELLOS26 though but I guess it's ok as I'll probably opt to pay via installment through Samsung Finance.

  • Seeking advice, is it a good deal for me with the cost below?

    I applied all the vouchers from what the previous comments showed, and my total price of S26U 1TB/16Gb & buds4 pro is $1841.50 with educational account.

    • +1

      Seems you're missing 1 final discount somewhere because people brang it down to $17xx. Nothing to lose sleep over though

      • +1

        Not with the Buds4 Pro

    • Thanks for the comments guys, I bought them and I think I am going to sell the buds4pro to make it lower price as I have already got 2 buds2pro lol

      • I couldn't get it lower than your above price either, tried a few different codes and EPP pages + commonwealth bank page and it was the lowest for that specific order.

        • I did save all of the vouchers before unpacked day which gave me like $550 off with all of the vouchers, that's why I thought it was not too bad even though I didn't use commonwealth bank code.

          • @Betterdeal: Yep using the education or government page gives the same discount as using the commonwealth bank code (infact my price was coming up lower on the education website without any code than it did on the commonwealth site [with YELLOS26 code]).

            Got s26U 1tb, buds4 pro and clear case for total $1862 (after trading in an old phone for $55).

  • Is there any deal for galaxy fold 2026 model?

    • Samsung Members app.

  • For 5% forst timer do I need to create a new samsung account

    • Yes - 5% discount is only available once you are logged into your samsung account.

      • Yes but does existing account work?

        • Only if you are buying for the first time using the Partner program.. you can check it by adding a device to the cart and go to checkout page.. it will say on that page if the 5% discount is being applied.

          • @Megatron: Yeah didnt work so create a new account I guess? I have used partner offers few years back

          • @Megatron: Was my first time using cba partner program , 5% didn’t apply

            • @sct911: It's any partner program.. have you used another partner program in the past? If not, you may want to ask in Samsung chat.

              • @Megatron: Yes I have used work partner program before , didn’t know that

                Still ok deal , s26 ultra 256gb and buds 4 pro for $1,378.55

                • @sct911: Most people are getting the 5% off despite having ordered before (myself included).

  • What's the subject line of $100 voucher email from February and sender email please

    • I searched "THY" in my mailbox.. but the subject line is "Your name, here's a little something to say thanks" and it was received on 13th Feb.

      • What date is it on please. I got 200$ eco voucher email on 20 feb

        • +1

          Date is in my comment above - 13 Feb.. If you havent received, reach out to Samsung chat and specifically ask them for the Thank you voucher for $100.

          • @Megatron: Thanks this worked.

          • @Megatron: Hey can I ppease confirm best discount on s26 ultra is
            $200 voucher
            $200 galaxy ai
            $100 voucher thank you
            $50 yellow voucher
            5% first disc
            $100 amex..
            Save old phone for better trade in offer
            Have I missed anything

            • @ozbargainerlife1: There is apparently a birthday voucher for $30 too if you wanna go down and look it up. But it might be too late as someone said you need to set your birth date to mid-Feb so you receive the voucher yearly at the time of lauch of new Galaxy models.

              Other than that, that is the best discount as far as I know. I couldnt use Amex offer as dont have Amex so just bit the bullet.

  • +2

    One more tip for others… Set your birthday that Samsung knows about to February and you also get a $30 birthday voucher every year about the time the new models drop.

  • There is a Amex $100 cashback offer available too. There is a trick on how to use it with CBA partner program

    What is the trick?
