Samsung has ended its £300 discount on the Galaxy S24, S24+, and Galaxy S24 Ultra, which dropped all three smartphones to their lowest ever prices. The limited-time sale ended early when the South Korean firm seemingly ran out of stock because the sale prices were so popular.


But while Samsung has replaced the best Galaxy S24 Ultra deals with a new £150 discount, there is still a way to secure the lowest ever prices on the Galaxy S24, S24+, and Galaxy S24 Ultra.

Currys is still offering the same £300 discount across all models, dropping the starting price of the flagship Galaxy S series, which launched at the beginning of the year, down to just £499.

If you’re willing to trade in your current phone, that price can plummet even further. Currys is offering an additional discount of £75 for certain trade-ins, cutting the price tag down to just £424.

Currys is offering Samsung fans the chance to buy now and pay the bill within the next six months.

Like the Samsung Store, it appears Currys is struggling with huge demand for these cut-price phones.

Several models in the Galaxy S24, S24+, and Galaxy S24 Ultra range are already listed as “out of stock,” although there are still some storage variants and colours available to buy in the sale. But we’d advise acting fast to secure one of these discounts.

While Samsung fans have depleted stocks of the Galaxy S24 series, it’s still possible to enjoy the blockbuster £400 discount on the Galaxy Z Flip5. This clever foldable phone was launched last year with an expansive cover screen on the outside of the flip phone, more durable glass, and a speedier chipset.

Samsung offers free delivery across the UK, as well as a range of 0% APR repayment plans too.

Alongside Currys, the limited time £300 sale across the Galaxy S24 series can be found at retailers like Amazon and AO.comtoo. Sadly, not all of these retailers off an extra discount when you pledge to trade-in your existing phone, so you might not always be able to lower the £499 starting price.

Prime members will benefit from next-day delivery nationwide at no extra cost on Amazon and Currys and Argos offer same-day collection in some areas — both good reasons to shop at these particular stores over Samsung.

Samsung announced the entire S24 range back in mid-January, with a focus on Artificial Intelligence (AI), clever new camera features, and a titanium frame. All three handsets arrive with a faster processor, bigger batteries, and a guaranteed seven years of Android upgrades.

Unveiled at Galaxy Unpacked event in San Jose, California, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is undoubtedly the headline feature of all three new Galaxy S phones from Samsung. Dubbed Galaxy AI, the clever new software can translate incoming phone calls in real-time, write text messages for you, summarise lengthy notes into bullet points, move the subject of a photo and erase unwanted people from the background.

Samsung has partnered with Google to launch a new way to gesture-driven way to search online — Circle To Search.

As the name suggests, this allows Galaxy S24 owners to long-press on the home button and circle anything on-screen to kickstart a Google search. For example, you can circle the city skyline in the background of an Instagram post to find the location, circle a book cover to get shopping results or circle an unknown actor in a Netflix show to find their IMDb page.

Some of these AI tricks are reminiscent of Microsoft’s CoPilot Pro subscription, which costs £19 a month to use across Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel on Windows, Mac, and iPad.

All three models of the Galaxy S24 arrive with Android 14 out of the box and guaranteed updates until the early 2030s. Until now, Samsung only guaranteed four years of updates with its flagship Galaxy S series.

Galaxy S24 Ultra follows in the footsteps of the iPhone 15 Pro and uses a titanium frame, which Samsung says will enhance durability. It’s also the brightest screen we’ve seen on a Galaxy smartphone, topping out at 2,600-nits, which should make everything easily visible on-screen even when outside on the brightest summer day.
