Hello guys! I just bought samsung galaxy s8!
In my galaxy app, I got Tumi back cover worth 60$ for free!
Also I got 100gb space on OneDrive!
Are there any other offers with any apps or accessories I can use with s8?
The Verizon S8+ comes with two or three offers that I know of and have redeemed. One is a $250 prepaid Visa card you get through Samsung Pay for setting up your account. You get points added which you can use for the Visa card or anything else you prefer, I believe. The other is a free Mophie JuicePak, which, IIRC, you get when signing into Samsung+ and registering your device. Oh, and 2GB bonus data, though I don't remember where I got that. And there's one more, though I wouldn't call it "free;" you can get a "free" tablet, but you have to pay sales tax and stuff. Whomp whomp whomp.

Paid 67.99 for my Note. $50 preorder then traded in a S4 ($200) + Best Buy gift card for purchasing the phone ($50) and had 17.99 remaining for taxes and activation.
Same here except i traded a Sanyo Zio......... worth like 2 cents............. no way were they getting my Note 3.........lol
Bought the 50 buck preorder gift card. Went to store to pick up phone (with a crap trade in) realized I forgot the card, they told me I could bring it in and refund it. Went to my local store to do and the manager said there's no way to do it. He offered to reimburse me the cost of the zag tempered glass though, which was 40 and I got to keep the 50 gift card. So after all that it was like 115 for the note plus a 50 buck gift card. Complicated but I feel good about the result.

Unless I'm really bad at math, you got $300 in promotions. The phone costs $720, so how did you only pay $67.99?
He upgraded with 2 year contract so out of pocket cost is 300. He paid 50 dollar for a gift card as a down-payment to pre-order. He traded in phone and got 200 towards phone so now cost is 100. Got additional 50 for purchasing phone. So cost is now 50 tack on his state taxes of 17.99 equals 67.99

How did you guys get additional $50 gift card for purchasing the phone? Mine $118 otd, $50 preorder + $200 trade in (htc hero).
Best buy gave additional 50. They advertised it
I sort of paid $79 for mine after taxes and deposit (or 109 with the Amazon phone I traded in).
There's the $50 deposit, $200 for trading in an HTC Hero (that I paid $30 for), $50 GC for buying a phone this year at BB.
I say sort of because I got a $700 credit in store for my Note 2 as well since I kept having hardware issues with 3 Note 2's within a week. That also got me a Galaxy Gear Neo 2, WB350 Camera, a few other other small things.
This is in the sprint section. What abt the Verizon model?
sent from your moms phone
Imma have to take a visit to Bestbuy and see if they can honored the $50 bucks.
where is this extra $50 gift card everyone is talking about being advertised? please link
I got the $200 gift card for my trade in but i have not seen anything about another $50 GC...

There's two that I've heard of. One is a $50 coupon for trading in a phone; supposedly not many have luck with that one since it double dips. There's another one that is for the BB Reward members from February or so who signed up and said they'd buy a phone this year; I got this one. They basically have this one every year and you get it as long as you sign up, and buy a phone within that year. It'll pop up when you give them the phone number for your RZ account.
Got my Note 4 todya for $25 thanks to the wonder that is icrap. thank you SO MUCH apple for my Note 4

Mmmmmmmm Delicious Note 4. will do the same when Note Edge comes out as I have one more upgrade
Thanks to the 200 rebate from samsung and the 100 rebate from verizon government, I made a penny on the deal. Threw my note 3 up on ebay, that's just the icing on the cake.
Traded in Galaxy S3 $200 (Samsung promotion).
Traded in Note 3 got $250 (best buy rewards gave me additional $50).
Received $50 for upgrading w/ BestBuy (upgrade early sign up)
------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------
Made $200...Waiting for the new Fitbit Surge or Basis Peak...
Traded Epic 4G touch and got $200 gift card, so Note 4 cost me $99. (BB messed up my points several months ago and somehow I been in negative balance since then). I kept my Note 3 which I am giving to relative for free.
- Free VR
- $30 vouchers
- 2 for 1 wireless chargers
- Free SD cards
Seen a number of deals as above for US customers, not a lot for those of us outside the US! Some retailers offered the VR for free but not all.
I know this isn't much but I'm from Canada and my pre-order includes the Gear VR, and a 128gb microsd. I'm used to not getting anything.
don't forget the 6 game bundle from Oculus
Just the VR in The Netherlands. And it seems to look like it that those who got the phone thru a carrier here and didn't pay the full 800 Euro (it comes free with a 2-year subscription of about 50 Euro a month) are not getting the VR. Samsung declined my girlfriends promotion registration !
I bought it carrier free for the full amount and just got confirmation my VR will arrive within 8 weeks.
In UK you get the Gear VR with it, either ourright (which I did), or through some of the operators. VR was delivered together with the phone on 8/Mar (I pre-ordered).
That part is good, and by itself no issues.
however, it is a shame that the US is getting more freebies.
Here in Puerto Rico we got The new Samsung OnLive Bluetooth Headphones, Gear VR and $50 Oculus cupon on the spot for people that reserved the S7 or S7 Edge. Didn't have to wait for freebies Nice package if you ask me.
O2 customers get free Jabra sport wireless headphones 14 days later
In Turkey, we don't get anything except the phone and shamelessly they charge those people who preordered the vr for 30$. What a lame company, The S7 Edge costs about 1100 USD here, total ripoff.
In iraq i bought my lovely s7 edge with 719$ without any extra.. any way i have VR too and so far happy?
Here in thailand
Free wireless charger
2000 baht off (60 us dollars)
50% off gear vr

Did you sent the right invoice and filled in the right information like where you bought it etc.
Oh and I got 100GB onedrive for free (Temporary)
The Free Gear VR deal was worldwide..anyone had access to it if they wanted to, one way or another. Sometimes via operators.
However, is the wireless charger deal for the new, angled charger ? Because otherwise it doesn't look like a good deal to me.
I'll trade the VR gear for your root!

Yes Jef, she filled in the form in the exact same matter as me, the reason in the email from Samsung was:
"we need an invoice that proofs that you paid the phone in advance in full", of course her invoice doesn't say that cause she got it with a subscription.
So this leads me to believe the previous statement I made: 'only VR if you paid full'. Another option is that they made a mistake and treated her in the same matter as me and didn't see she prolonged her subscription
So I wanna pre order the Galaxy s8 plus from best buy because I can just put it on my best buy credit card. I recently just switched to tmobile but I see best buy has every carried except for tmobile. Would I be able to just buy the phone full price say from best buy through sprint and just pop in a tmobile sim card? Please let me know thank you!
If you get it directly from Samsung, you get the phone for $650 for T-Mobile and if you get a Samsung credit card it's interest fee for 24 months. Bestbuy gives you 12 months.

That deal is long gone. It also had the promo VR gear for free OR the upgrade package with the VR gear, wireless headphones, and 256mb micro sd card for $99.99. No filling out the samsung promo forms then waiting on it to ship out after you buy the phone. I'm just wondering how much of a pain it would be to get unlocked for AT&T. Mine came to $808 with tax and 2 day air and the upgraded promo package.
According to Samsung "Get the new Gear VR with Controller for free, plus Oculus content bonus when you pre-order the Galaxy S8 or Galaxy S8+". Excellent! Of course, whats extras w/o some hoops to jump through!

The promo is valid for GS8 or GS8 Plus orders placed between 3/30/2017 and 4/20/2017. Regardless of which bundle you do, you will have to submit proof of purchase to Samsung and wait for the promo items to show up. That could take a few weeks. Documents from the valid purchase period must be submitted by May 14th.
The only thing Samsung offered me in the UK with the upgrade programme was insurance
I wonder if the deal is region exclusive... It's definitely in the US & Canada for sure, but no idea on other regions.
last year was the same , then people start write to samsung and they give gear vr in uk as well if I remeber correctly
Last year you had a choice of the Gear S2 smartwatch or the Gear VR. There was a very limited number of the watches and I was one of the lucky ones to get one. I already had a Gear VR. I sold the watch for $175.00. There was also a little known promotion of a free Samsung 32gb SD card that I took advantage of.

My local costco is doing a pre-order bonus of the Gear VR, Gear remote, and Level U Pro wireless earbuds when you preorder galaxy s8 or s8+. If you want the earbuds aswell check them out.
if i remember from the note 7 promo it didnt take very long to receive the item. i got the 7 on reease day after preordering it and immediately filled out the necessary info and had my gear fit 2 in about a week.

Was that only for Verizon or can you get that same deal with the other carriers too? I did take a look at their site, and while I do know that you have to pre-order in the warehouse, I only saw Verizon's logo on the ad for it...
I already pre-ordered my phone at Best Buy, so if there's a better deal at Costco, maybe I could put an order there?

As far as I can tell from calling samsung, no GearVR is offered in the UK... That sucks!

I believe it is Verizon only unfortunately. Sams club offers the Gear VR + Controller and a $150 cash card to sams. Id rather buy it from there instead of the ~$44 headset from costco.

Yup the UK and Europe is obviously not that important to Samsung. I called them and was basically told that the Samsung marketing department made a strategic decision to push this only to the States. So now you know where we stand with that and probably with updates going forward

Yep, it is. I confirmed that when I went to Costco earlier today. :/ I don't have a Sam's club near me, so that's not even an option for me.
I wish such deals exist in the netherlands, you get nothing!

carphone warehouse in the uk are offering a free Level Box Slim speaker/ battery pack on preorders. might sell it on to finance the VR....

You have to submit it on Samsung Promotions AFTER you receive your device. Not 100% sure if you have to pay for the extra before you submit the rebate, or if it's an option when you try to redeem the promo and you'd pay then.
I have pre ordered mine with Vodafone UK, they didn't offer anything other than getting the phone a few days early.

It's disappointing that Samsung or the carriers offer any incentive really to pre-order. I would have like the charging stand/pad as a free option, or a large capacity high speed sd card for the phone!!

Last year in Greece samsung gave vr headset with preorder. This year give nothing!! Nice sammy!!
Has anyone in the US received this $200 when purchasing an S8 from the Samsung website? This is their deal right now.
- Can this $200 only be spent on Samsung products?
- Or, can this be spent only through Samsung Pay on any purchase?
- Or, something else.
