Samsung is stepping up to help the environment by offering an appealing option for those looking to buy a new phone. With Earth Day in mind, they’ve launched the Galaxy S24 series—including the S24, S24+, and S24 Ultra—through their Certified Renewed program. This program lets you purchase high-quality refurbished phones while keeping e-waste from piling up in landfills.
Why Choose Refurbished?
Choosing a refurbished phone is a smart move. Samsung insists that you’ll receive a device that feels just like new, while contributing to a greener future. This initiative comes at a time when many consumers are keeping their devices longer due to rising new tech prices. Recently, Back Market teamed up with iFixit to promote device longevity, especially with looming tariffs affecting new tech costs.
Pricing Breakdown
Here’s what you get when opting for the Galaxy S24 series:
- S24 Ultra: $1,019.99 (256GB) and $1,139.99 (512GB)
- S24+: $799.99 (256GB) and $919.99 (512GB)
- S24: $619.99 (128GB) and $669.99 (256GB)
When you compare these prices to buying new, you can save up to $90 for the base model S24 and $70 on the S24+. However, some deals might not be as favorable. For instance, a refurbished Ultra could cost you about $85 more compared to purchasing it new from Amazon.
What You Should Know
Every device sold through this program comes with a one-year limited warranty, matching that of a new phone. You can also opt for Samsung Care+ for added protection. These phones are unlocked, making them compatible with major carriers like Verizon and AT&T.
The package includes everything you would expect: a charging cable, user manual, and warranty card. Samsung assures that each device goes through rigorous checks, ensuring they are in top condition, with any repairs made using 100% genuine parts.
Financing Options
If budget is a concern, Samsung offers various financing plans. You can start with $0 down and 0% APR through Samsung Financing, or choose “Pay in 4” with services like Affirm or Klarna.
Conclusion
In a world where consumer electronics contribute significantly to waste, embracing refurbished devices is a responsible choice. By opting for Samsung’s Certified Renewed program, you not only save money but also play a part in a sustainable future.
