It’s worth noting that the gen AI features that will be available on the Galaxy S24, S24 Plus and S24 Ultra will also be coming to previous-gen phones in the S23 series along with the Z series later this year. That means you may still be able to take advantage of that particular upgrade for a bit less, with expected Galaxy S23 deals set to roll out as the latest models hit shelves.

How much does the Galaxy S24 cost?

The three models of the Galaxy S24 are available in various storage configurations. US pricing for each model is as follows:

  • Samsung Galaxy S24 price: $800
  • Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus price: $1,000
  • Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra price: $1,300

That puts the Ultra at $100 more expensive than the S23 Ultra was at launch. However, it has a titanium frame this time around, which may account for the extra cost. 

In terms of configuration upgrades, the S24 remains the same as its predecessor with 8GB of RAM and either 128GB or 256GB of storage. The S24 Plus has 12GB of RAM, which is up from 8GB in the S23 Plus, and either 256GB or 512GB of storage. The Ultra is also sporting an upgraded 12GB of RAM and is available with 256GB, 512GB or 1TB of storage.

If you order direct from Samsung, you’ll get access to seven different color options, including three exclusive-to-Samsung colors. As for savings, you can expect to get up to $550 off the Galaxy S24, up to $650 off the S24 Plus and up to $750 off the S24 Ultra, with the trade-in of an eligible device. The discount comes in the form of bill credits. 

You can also get a $50 instant Samsung Credit if you opt for a carrier device 

Right now Best Buy has direct discounts on unlocked S24 models. You can get the 128 GB Galaxy S24 for $760, a $100 savings. If you want the 128 GB S24 Plus, you can save $150, bringing the price down to $850. The 256 GB S24 Ultra for $1,150, a discount of $150. 
Best Buy also has a trade-in program. For an unlocked S24, regardless of model, you can get up to $680 worth of trade-in value. On the other hand, if you go for either AT&T or Verizon, you can get up to $1,000 of trade-in value, depending on the model that you’re buying. Purchasing any of the Samsung S24 variants from Best Buy will also get you one free month of Xbox Game Pass. 

Samsung fans can order the S24 series from AT&T and get an impressive trade-in deal. Both new and existing customers with an unlimited plan can trade in their old Samsung Galaxy S, Note, or Z series from any year, in any condition, and get up to $800 in credits on the base model S24, or score a $1,000 credit on the S24 Plus or S24 Ultra.

If you buy any of the S24 series on an installment plan and trade in an eligible phone, you can get up to $1,000 off along with a free Watch6. AT&T is also offering 50% off Samsung accessories with phone purchase. 

Like AT&T, Verizon is offering great deals on the new S24 series. New and existing customers with eligible Verizon Unlimited Ultimate plans can trade in any model Samsung phone in any condition and get a credit of up to $800 on the Galaxy S24 or up to $1,000 on the Galaxy S24 Plus or the S24 Ultra. 

Verizon is also offering up to $350 off a Galaxy Watch or up to $550 off a Galaxy Tab S9 FE with your purchase, though you will need new lines for those devices. 

T-Mobile is offering both new and existing customers a stellar deal on the S24 series. You can get up to $1,000 off the S24 lineup with an eligible device trade-in if you’re on the Go5G Plus or Go5G Next plans. That scores you the Galaxy S24 Plus for free. Or you can add a line on either of those plans to get $800 off if you’re looking for a deal with no trade-in required. That brings the S24 price to nil, scoring you one for free. Other qualifying plans can get up to $600 by adding a new line and up to $500 off with eligible trade-in. Even older-model phones can get $100 credit or more. 

You can currently get up to $500 off any of the S24 phones with an eligible trade-in, now through March 21. 

If you grab your S24 via Spectrum, you can save as much as $500 when you trade in an eligible device and activate your new phone on an eligible plan. The $050 discount will be applied to the S24 device you are buying in full if you are paying up front, or the credit will be split across your payment plan if the phone is financed. 

Google Fi is offering new customers (which means you must not have had Google Fi for at least 180 days) a deal when you activate your phone with a Google Fi Wireless Unlimited Plus or Flexible plan. You’ll get up to $400 back on the Galaxy S24, up to $500 back on the S24 Plus and up to $600 back on the S24 Ultra. You’ll receive the cash back via 24 monthly bill credits. However, if you cancel service before that time, you’ll forfeit any remaining credit. If you sign up for the Simply Unlimited plan, you can still get up to $250 back. 

If you’re looking for the S24, S24 Plus, or S24 Ultra, Mint Mobile is offering a $100 discount on each phone, plus when you sign up for six months of service, you get six more months free.
