UPDATE: The Galaxy S22 series is now deprecated by Samsung, including the S22 whose priced was simply lowered by $100 in the aftermath of the Galaxy S23 series preorder start. You can still order leftover inventory, but at prices similar to the S23 models.
The Galaxy S22 Ultra was Samsung's surprising bestseller last year, as it is a fantastic device that's pretty easy to drool over. We say surprising because it also comes with the hefty price tag, so finding a deal before pulling the trigger on one would be a good idea now that the Galaxy S23 Ultra preorder reservations are live while the S23 preorder bonuses are still shrouded in mystery.
As usual, Samsung's own store has the best Galaxy S22 Ultra deals and extra colors to choose from that you can't get anywhere else, plus the most generous trade-in offers without signing for a plan.

Best Buy Galaxy S22, S22+ and S22 Ultra deals
Best Buy is offering a great direct discount on the Galaxy S22 series right now, taking $200 off the S22 Ultra directly, no trade-ins or carrier activations required. It takes $150 off the Galaxy S22+ as well, but the S22 munchkin is discounted the heaviest as Best Buy keeps the $150 off deal for it, which lowers its price to the sweet $650, no questions asked.
Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile Galaxy S22 Ultra deals
- $50 instant activation discounts at Samsung.
- $100 or $200 in free storage upgrade.
- Trade in any damaged phone at Verizon and get $800 towards the S22 Ultra.
- Trade in any phone on AT&T, even a cracked screen one, and get $800 off the Galaxy S22 Ultra.
T-Mobile, Verizon, and AT&T seem to have better deals if you activate on these carriers via Samsung, as it applies instant discounts instead of trade-ins only, and tacks on gifts like the $100 instant credit, not to mention the four exclusive colors you get there. Here's how Verizon's $1000 off deal sounds at Samsung:
- Buy a new Galaxy S22 series on Verizon Device Payment Program
- Device line must be on select unlimited data plans (Above, Beyond, Do More, Play More, or Get More) prior to placing your new device order
- After you place your Samsung order, visit the Verizon Trade-in site to process your trade-in
- Bill credits will be applied to your Verizon account after the trade-in process is completed with Verizon
Otherwise, Verizon offers $800 off with a trade-in for any damaged phone, while AT&T and T-Mobile go with $800 trade-ins with a plan subscription, too. The list of devices you can get $800 for on AT&T is rather impressive, though, making its trade-in deal basically a free Galaxy S22. To qualify for the $800 Galaxy S22 Ultra credit at AT&T, trade-in must have a minimum of $35 trade-in value before device condition questions have been answered.
