The popular pre-order bonus is making a comeback for the Galaxy S26.
Redaksiya reports that Samsung will bring back its fans' favorite pre-order bonus for the new S26 series, the "double the storage" offer. However, it is not yet known if this offer will be available in the US.
More storage, fewer problems. Everyone loves to get more storage for their money, and this year will be particularly successful for Samsung fans. Not only will the base Galaxy S26 model come with up to 256GB of storage, but anyone who pre-orders any of the S26 phones will be able to get the 512GB version for the price of 256GB.
This offer has been confirmed on Samsung UK's Unpacked webpage, and although it is not mentioned on Samsung US's Unpacked webpage, leaker Billbil-kun claims that Samsung customers in France will also benefit from this offer. Therefore, we hope that fans in the US will also have the opportunity to take advantage of the same offer.
Thanks to Billbil-kun and Dealabs, we have also been able to see the French prices for the Galaxy S26 series:
Model - Storage - Retail Price - Discounted Price - Difference
Samsung Galaxy S26 - 256GB - -€100
Samsung Galaxy S26 - 512GB - €1199 - -€300
Samsung Galaxy S26+ - 256GB - €1269 - €1169 - -€100
Samsung Galaxy S26+ - 512GB - €1469 - €1169 - -€300
Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra - 256GB - €1469 - €1319 - -€150
Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra - 512GB - €1669 - €1319 - -€350
Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra - 1TB - €1969 - €1619 - -€350
All the prices above are, of course, in euros, but this allows us to estimate what kind of discounts to expect. It should also be noted that the discounted price includes a trade-in discount of €100 for the S26 and S26+, and €150 for the S26 Ultra. This bonus will likely be in addition to what you get from your actual trade-in. The 1TB Ultra model also receives an additional €200 pre-order discount.
