Samsung’s Buy and Try program that we wrote about a couple of weeks ago is still ongoing, but the discount has changed and the prices on the Flips are lower now. This program offers an extended return window with the option for a full refund after up to 100 days. More details here.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 and Z Flip7 FE now have a flat £150 discount. In addition, Prime Student subscribers can get £100 off. The base model is now cheaper, but without the offer of a free storage upgrade, you have to pay a bit more for the 512GB model than you would have two weeks ago.
The Galaxy Z Flip7 FE also lost the free storage upgrade – however, the flat £150 discount is greater than the 10% discount from before (since this is a cheaper model). So, you can get the 256GB model for the same cost (£5 less, actually) and have the option of a cheaper 128GB phone.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 is also part of the Buy and Try program, but it only has a £100 discount at checkout and it’s only available to Prime subscribers. To be fair, a year of Prime is £95, so it would effectively pay for itself with this discount.
But check this out – for some reason the combo of a Galaxy Z Fold7 512GB and Galaxy Buds3 Pro costs £48 less than just the 512GB Z Fold7 above. This isn’t listed as eligible for the Buy and Try program, though.
The Motorola Edge 60 has only a £30 discount, but it’s already a pretty cheap phone. It doesn’t look like it, though, with its Pantone color options for the faux leather back and curved 6.67” OLED display. This is a solid panel with 1220p+ resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, HDR10+ support and 4,500 nits peak brightness.
The 50MP main camera has a relatively large 1/1.56” sensor, there’s a high resolution 50MP ultra-wide camera and, a rarity in this price class, a 10MP 3x/73mm telephoto lens. The 5,200mAh battery does 68W wired-only charging. The one weak spot of this phone is the Dimensity 7300 chipset – it’s not bad, but you can have much faster chips in the £300-£400 range. On the plus side, there’s a microSD slot.
The Samsung Galaxy A26 is a cheaper alternative to the Galaxy A36. We have a detailed comparison between these two. In short, the A36 has the faster chipset (Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 vs. Exynos 1380), a brighter display and better speakers. The A26 costs less and has a microSD slot, so you can have tons of storage on the cheap.
