Today's best Samsung Galaxy S22/S22+ pre-order deals

If you'd prefer to pre-order the Samsung Galaxy S22 from a retailer, we'd check out the big brands like Walmart, Best Buy, and Amazon. Best Buy has started throwing in $100 gift cards with some preorders of the S22 and S22 Plus and is also offering the free storage upgrade. Over at Amazon, we can see that the 256GB model is the same price as the 128GB one for both phones, so be sure take advantage of that offer. Walmart only seem to be selling the phones on monthly plans right now rather than unlocked upfront pucrhases, but that could change soon.

Over in the UK, we're starting to see contract offers appear from a range of networks and mobile stores and you can see them in our comparison chart below. There are some great offers going at the UK Samsung site as all S22 and S22 Plus pre-orders include a free year of Disney Plus (worth £79.90) and a free pair of Galaxy Buds Pro wireless earbuds (worth around £220 at launch or around £130 in recent sales).

We'll be updating this page throughout the Samsung Galaxy S22 and S22 Plus pre-order window with the latest offers from other networks.
