Samsung has just launched new Galaxy S25 Ultra Black Friday pricing, alongside its Samsung “price promise” that will match discounts at other retailers if certain conditions are met. This latest Galaxy S25 Ultra deal includes a straight flagship price drop, free Google AI Pro for six months, and an additional Samsung discount if the phone is bought through PayPal.
The new Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra discount is solid and combines a couple of promotions to get the price down. But is it Samsung’s best offer for its flagship phone? Not quite.

How to Get the Best Galaxy S25 Ultra Black Friday Price
Samsung U.K. has dropped the price of the Galaxy S25 Ultra to £999 ($1,303), which it says represents a £250 ($326) discount from its regular £1,249 ($1,629) price. This Galaxy S25 Ultra Black Friday discount is extended by £50 ($65) if the phone is bought via PayPal, and the imaginative code “PAYPAL” is used at checkout. This specific Samsung deal lasts until December 2nd.

Unlike the U.S. Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra discount, there’s no huge price drop if no phone is traded in. Instead, Samsung will pay at least £100 ($130) for your old phone, in any condition. I have been told previously that Samsung will truly accept any smartphone in any condition. But, I’d take some care and at least hand over a working device. I don’t think it matters how ancient the handset is, so long as it can be classified as a smartphone.
With the PayPal discount, trade-in guarantee, and the £250 ($326) off promotion, the new Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra price comes down to £849 ($1,117). This is an excellent price for Samsung’s newest flagship phone, but it isn’t the lowest Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra price we’ve seen from the Korean company for the S25 Ultra.
Warning: A Cheaper Galaxy S25 Ultra Deal Already Happened
In October, Samsung U.K. launched a promotion that knocked 20% off several handsets, including the Galaxy S25 Ultra. That deal also offered a minimum trade-in price for your old phone, except it was for £200 ($261) instead of £100. Combined, that brought the price down to £799 ($1,042)—£50 cheaper than today’s offer.
This is precisely why people are sceptical of Black Friday discounts: they’re often framed as a once-a-year opportunity to buy tech at its cheapest rate. But if you follow my stories, specifically my Samsung Black Friday coverage, you will know that isn’t always true. The best time is typically right before the next phone launches.
Samsung, Google, OnePlus, and retailers like Amazon will have deals that beat Black Friday discounts throughout the year. With that said, there’s still time for Samsung to improve on this Galaxy S25 Ultra deal because the actual Black Friday shopping weekend is over a week away. If we’re lucky, we might see Samsung throw in a free pair of Galaxy Buds 3, or a free tablet, as it has done in previous Black Friday sales.
