While most folks (including yours truly) are laser focused on the upcoming Black Friday sales, Samsung has quietly launched a sitewide deal event that features some pretty noteworthy offers on tech.
Samsung Week just kicked off yesterday morning with a bounty of discounts on top-rated smartphones, appliances, and TVs, including one of our favorite midrange devices, the Samsung Galaxy A54. Pick up an A54 through Samsung this week and you’ll get $50 off straight away, plus up to $300 of trade-in credit when you send along an old or broken device.
That means you could be saving as much as $350 if you play your cards right, and since the A54 typically retails for around $449.99, the price of this excellent cheap Android phone might just drop down to a Benjamin. Of course, trade-in offers can be tricky, but you can easily plug in the model name of your old phone to see the discount before committing to anything. Trading in a Galaxy S22 Plus, for instance, will get you the max credit, while trading in a Galaxy A53 or S21 will get you $250 and $200 off, respectively. Again, that first $50 off is guaranteed.
One of our favorite cheap phones just got cheaper
The Samsung Galaxy A54 is a mid-range masterpiece that boasts a stunning 120Hz AMOLED display, large 5,000mAh battery, and fluid performance thanks to the Exynos 1380 chip. And although it has a plastic construction, as we note in our A54 review, the phone is “heavy enough to not feel cheap, very well balanced” and may be “one of the best plastic builds.. ever seen from Samsung”.
