There still may be a few OG loyalists out there holding on to their Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, the last of the “true” Note devices, before Samsung decided to absorb the series in the Galaxy S Ultra models. No judgement, I'm still rocking a Galaxy Note 10+ on the side, I understand how difficult it is to part with our beloved Notes.
The simple fact is that phones depreciate so if you're not quick to trade up, you'll need to pay big money out of pocket to buy a new device down the line. Fortunately, Samsung is offering a great deal for Galaxy Note 20 Ultra owners in the United States, offering them serious trade-in cash in exchange for a brand new Galaxy S25 Ultra.
You can't find this deal anywhere else other than Samsung's online store
If you buy the Galaxy S25 Ultra and trade your Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, Samsung will give you $600 for it. That's an exceptional trade-in value for a device that's nearly 5 years old now, and cost $1,299 when new. You're getting almost 50% of the value after all this time, and you're not going to find a better deal anywhere else.
If you took this deal and opted for the 256GB Galaxy S25 Ultra which costs $1,299, you'll only need to pay $699 out of pocket. That's a great price to pay for a device that offers the best Samsung hardware, software, and camera experience that money can buy right now.
Yes, there's an elephant in the room, the lack of Bluetooth features on the Galaxy S25 Ultra's S Pen, which may be a dealbreaker for you if you're not in the under 1% of customers that ever used those features in the first place.
