Retailers are still offering up to $200 in credit, while carriers will let you trade in older devices for free upgrades.

Save up to $1,200 when preordering and trading in your existing device.

All this to say the Galaxy S25 ($800), Galaxy S25+ ($1,000), and Galaxy S25 Ultra ($1,300) are powerful, reliable, and well-equipped smartphones. They're excellent upgrades if you're coming from a three or four-year-old device. They're just not otherwise interesting or exciting.
