Samsung's Labor Day sale is LIVE — these are the Android deals you should care about
From foldable phones to tablets, these are my favorite discounts.
The Labor Day sales are here, and Samsung has wasted no time in dropping a bounty of sweet deals on smartphones, tablets, wearables, and more. The list is pretty long, so if you don't feel like scrolling through all of the promos on display, I've done the work of sharing five of my favorite Android offers below so you can save yourself some time (and some cash).
First and foremost, it's worth mentioning that Samsung deals are rarely simple. Usually they involve some kind of action on your part — such as a trade-in or a carrier activation — and it's unusual for an offer to appear as a straight, no-strings discount. Still, if you play your cards right, you could find yourself earning some serious savings AND an awesome Samsung device at the same time (not to mention the exclusive color options).
For example, you could get up to $1,200 off the Galaxy Z Fold 6 when you trade in an old or broken phone today, or $200 off when you buy an unlocked Galaxy S24 Plus. Keep reading to see more of my favorite offers, and don't forget that most of these promos are set to expire in early September — so act fast.
