Prepare for the next shopping spree! | Image by PhoneArena
Amazon Prime Day may have ended months ago, but the e-commerce giant is highly likely to launch another sales event before November kicks in. While official dates for the October Prime Big Deal Days are still kept under wraps, last year's event began on October 7 and lasted through October 8.
As you probably know, Prime Day is the perfect time to upgrade your Samsung tech without spending too much, and I expect many exciting promos to go live once October draws in.
By the way, if you're planning to upgrade, you might want to check out the promos that went live during June's shopping spree. I've already gone on and on about some of my favorite Galaxy phone deals from that event, so be sure to check them out if you want an idea of what to expect in October.
Galaxy S26 Prime Day deals
In the first few hours of this year's Prime Day in June, you could save $350 on the Galaxy S26 Ultra, grab $300 in savings on the S26+, or score $200 off the "vanilla" S26. But Amazon didn't stop there.
From Day 2 through Day 4, discounts on the latest Galaxy S models kept increasing. For the Ultra, they reached up to $380 on select models, while the vanilla model could be yours for $280 off.
The Galaxy S26+ was my favorite promo, though. This bad boy went down by $457 on the last day of the event, bringing it to less than $845 from $1,300.
Z Fold and Z Flip Prime Day deals
Offers on the latest Z Flip and Z Fold models weren't hard to find at Amazon this June 23-26. The Galaxy Z Fold 7, for example, was available for $500 off in the first couple of days, but then, Amazon surprisingly made it $610 cheaper in select 512GB color options.
Samsung's first-ever budget foldable phone, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE, was another standout deal. This model dropped by 44% in its larger storage configuration, making it too good to miss.
As for the Z Flip 7, the brand's first-ever foldable with an edge-to-edge cover display, it was down by up to $600 at Samsung with a trade-in. Amazon, on the other hand, gave Prime members a straight-up price cut of $360.
Galaxy A Prime Day deals
While this Prime Day event didn't bring discounts of over $400 on budget and mid-range Galaxy A phones, some devices still got cheaper than ever. The Galaxy A17, for example, went down by 29%, bringing it to its best price since launch.
The Galaxy A57 was another popular option that received discounts of up to $115. The more affordable Galaxy A37 received an even bigger price cut and could be yours for $135 off its original price.
Prime Day deals on older Galaxy phones
While Amazon didn't launch discounts on older Galaxy devices, other retailers did. Over at the Amazon-owned retailer, Woot, for example, both the Galaxy S25 Ultra and the S25 FE got big markdowns. In fact, the 1TB Ultra model was cheaper by a staggering $610.
The S25 FE, on the other hand, was $200-$220 more affordable throughout the sale. In addition, the Galaxy S25 and the Galaxy A36 were cheaper at Walmart in its own sales event. These models got surprisingly good discounts reaching as much as $185.
