Samsung isn't concerned about smashed screens or dead batteries

Samsung is offering £200 for any broken or long-forgotten phones that are gathering dust in your drawers.

It's all thanks to a supercharged new trade-in offer when you add the Galaxy S25, S25+, or Galaxy S25 Ultra to your shopping basket on the Samsung online store. Announced back in January, the new Galaxy S lineup boasts speedier processors to enable more Galaxy AI tasks on-device, a refreshed design with soft, rounded corners to make it easier to handle, and new colours. Despite these improvements, the price remains the same as last year.

But send any Android phone in any condition to Samsung — you can immediately slash £200 off those prices.

That means you can pocket the standard Galaxy S25 starts from £599, a Galaxy S25+ from £799, and the all-singing, all-dancing Galaxy S25 Ultra from £1,049.

Granted, even with that sizeable discount, you'd be hard pushed to describe these handsets as "cheap". But this an incredible opportunity to upgrade to a flagship Android smartphone packed with the latest technologies developed by Samsung — and offload an old phone you're no longer using.

First up, you'll need to choose exactly which of the new Samsung smartphones is calling to you. If you're unsure, we've got some details on exactly what separates the three handsets in the Galaxy S lineup below.

Next up, you'll need to confirm the manufacturer, model number, and condition of the handset that you're looking to trade-in. Once that's done, you'll be presented with an estimated trade-in value.

With the current deal, you can guarantee £200 discount on your purchase.

If you're looking to trade-in something more valuable, then you'll be offered up to £540 off a Galaxy S25 or Galaxy S25+, and up to £660 off a Galaxy S25 Ultra. The discount will be applied instantly at checkout.

Samsung will send out a self-addressed package to mail your trade-in device.

While the design of the new Galaxy S25 lineup isn't a huge departure from recent Galaxy S handsets, these new devices are thinner and lighter than previous generations. Samsung has shaved-off between 6g - 15g, depending on the model you choose. The biggest weight loss is reserved for the Galaxy S25 Ultra.

Under the bonnet of all three new smartphones is the first-of-its-kind customised Snapdragon 8 Elite Mobile Platform for Galaxy system-on-a-chip, which is specifically designed to power the phones' extensive AI features. The silicon was designed by teams from Samsung and US manufacturer Qualcomm.

It's the speediest chip to ever ship inside a Samsung smartphone, delivering 40% faster performance from the Neural Processing Unit (NPU), which predominantly handles on-device AI tasks, as well as a 37% increase in CPU and a 30% improvement in GPU compared to the Galaxy S24 series.

This beefier chipset allows Samsung to crunch more AI tasks on-device. Some Galaxy AI features that previously had to be beamed to servers, like Generative Edit, now take place on the silicon inside the phone. Since you're not reliant on a decent Wi-Fi or mobile data connection, you'll be able to use these AI tricks on aeroplane mode.
