Who's Ordering The S26

[mustang7757]

The Forums are up for s26

It's time. I will be upgrading from S24

Let's go! Thank you for putting this forum together mods.

Still have my Note 10 (regular size, not the plus)!

I would love to get the S26 Ultra. I prefer normal size phones but I use the s-pen too much so no choice if I want to upgrade.
Annoyed that they didn't bring back the s-pen bluetooth functionality as I use that a lot when I travel but not a deal breaker.

Depending on the price difference, I may get the S25 Ultra instead.

I guess the first step is to sign in to the Samsung Reserve to at least get the $30 credit if I/you decide to order through Samsung?

Up to $900 additional savings* sounds a little low but depends on what phones they will give $900 for trade-in eh? I still have my S22U, S23U, iPhone 15 to trade. I don't think I'll trade my ZF7 yet.

Will have to see what the carriers will offer.

For thought...
AT&T will still give me $1000 trade on my S22U towards a S25U. $1100 towards a iPhone 17 Pro Max.
Samsung site will only give me $210 for my S22U ($350 for my S23U)

I'd like to go with a 26U but to get rid of my 22U for $1000 for a 25U is an option.

Oh yes.

Wow!
They cut the reservation credit to 30.00? I guess I haven't been paying attention....

What was it before?

 

[BerryBubbles]

What was it before?

The last one I received was 50.00 when I bought my s24 Ultra. I think it was also a 50.00 reservation credit for my s22 Ultra.

It's only a 20.00 difference , but it surprised me.

They are getting more and more stingy.

Yes, they are chipping away at all the discounts.

Depends on the trade-in I do like the privacy screen u can do without a screen protector version but I'm not liking aluminum build compared to the s25u titanium, we see.

@mustang7757

how big can the differences be between aluminum and titanium please, considering that it's only that little frame around the outermost edge of the phone? it's not that much metal there, right? just thinking out loud. Thx.
