The Galaxy S26 FE has been around for just a few days, but you can already find it at a fantastic price at the official store. Likely for a limited time, the official store lets you grab the Fan Edition device with a solid trade-in discount of up to $400.

So, instead of coughing up $699.99 for this Android phone, you can now get it for as low as $299.99. However you look at it, this is a pretty sweet launch offer.

If you'd rather get your hands on one of the brand's latest foldables, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 just got its first-ever discount at Amazon.

The Galaxy S26 FE may not be the best Android phone, but it offers a lot for a reasonable price. It features a high-end display and premium design and comes with up to seven years of continuous support. Best of all, you can now get it for up to $400 off at Samsung or alongside $100 Samsung Credit.

In case you don't have a suitable device to trade in, Samsung is offering a $100 credit. You can use it as a discount on a wearable, a pair of earbuds, or Galaxy S26 FE accessories. Just a heads-up: if you go ahead with this offer, you'd want to use the full Samsung Credit amount at the time of your checkout, as it would be lost otherwise.

The S26 FE may technically be a mid-ranger, but it packs some proper flagship features, including My FanCam, which keeps the focus on you, a friend, or a family member while recording a video. The feature first debuted on the Galaxy Z Fold 8, so having it onboard right out of the box shows this fella is much more than your average mid-range phone.

Other standout features include a 6.7-inch AMOLED display, a reasonably powerful Exynos 2500 chip, and a design language that resembles the flagship Galaxy S26 series.

Bottom line: no mid-range device offers a proper flagship experience, but if you ask me, the Galaxy S26 FE is as close as it gets. If you're tempted to grab one, now's your chance to upgrade and save up to $400.

Mint Mobile is now allowing you to get whichever plan you like for either three, six, or 12 months for just $15/mo. If you go for the six-month unlimited service, for instance, you'll now have to pay just $90 upfront instead of $210.
