Samsung is actually carving $1,000 OFF the Galaxy Z Fold 6 this week — why wait for Prime Day?

The Z Fold 7 is rumored to be revealed next month, but recent Galaxy Z Fold 6 deals have made it increasingly hard to wait. This week only, for example, Samsung is slashing up to $1,000 off the 2024 foldable when you trade in an old or broken device, or you can grab a straight $400 discount by skipping the trade-in process altogether. Considering the foldable phone's steep price tag, these savings could go a long way.   

The deal is part of the company's Discover Samsung event, which is ostensibly a way for the OEM to ditch old stock before unveiling a bunch of new devices in July. Nevertheless, plenty of other Samsung phones are receiving similarly-great offers during the sale, so take a look if you're interested in grabbing a new device.

If you've been waiting for the right time to buy the Galaxy z Fold 6, this might be it. For one week only, Samsung is offering up to $1,000 of instant trade-in credit when you send in an old or broken device, potentially knocking the price of the premium foldable down to $899.99. 

Don't have anything to trade in? Skip that part and you'll still receive $400 off, matching (or beating) the latest pricing from Amazon and Best Buy. 

Although it wasn't the dramatic upgrade that we were hoping for, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 is still one of the best foldable phones on the market today, boasting two gorgeous AMOLED displays, a powerful Snapdragon chipset, and a durable folding hinge that's (nearly) invisible to the naked eye. Like all of Samsung's recent devices, the Z Fold 6 also guarantees seven years of security and OS upgrades, and you'll also receive access to all of the latest Galaxy AI software features.

Once again, the Galaxy Z Fold 6's biggest problem is the price, which is why deals like this are so important. Even if you can't get the full $1,000 of instant trade-in credit, Samsung is being pretty generous about the old phones it accepts. Devices dating back to the Galaxy S23 Plus will land you $650, while select iPhones could earn you up to $700 off. 

In addition to the instant trade-in credit, Samsung is offering up to 47% off select accessories like the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro or Galaxy Watch 7 when you bundle your purchase with the Z Fold 7. In other words, do some shopping during the Discover Samsung sale and you might end up fully equipped with discounted tech before the week is up.
