During this pre-order period which ends tomorrow (Friday), you’re getting double the storage without paying extra. The Galaxy S25 Ultra 512GB is priced at just $1,299 (instead of $1,419), and the 1TB model is priced at $1,419 down from $1,659. You can get similar discounts on the Galaxy S25 and S25+.

This one's easy. Last year, the Galaxy S24 started at $799. This year, the Galaxy S25 starts at...$799. It's a wash, in other words. That said, it's possible that Samsung drops the price of the S24 after the launch of the S25, but until that happens, these two phones cost the same amount of money.

The Galaxy S25 Ultra appears to not suffer from the mura effect like the Galaxy S24 Ultra did when it launched.
