The next Samsung Unpacked event is scheduled for Wednesday, February 25th, but you apparently don’t need to wait for the preorder period to score a great Galaxy S26 deal.
Sign up for the Galaxy Reserve program with your name and email address and you’ll be instantly eligible for up to $900 off your Galaxy S26 preorder (with trade-in) when the phones are officially revealed next week.
Samsung launches its Galaxy Reserve program every time it releases a new flagship lineup, and I can assure you that it’s the easiest way to guarantee yourself some savings when the Galaxy S26 is revealed on February 25th.
I sign up almost every year, and it’s just as straightforward as it sounds. Samsung won’t sell your email or constantly hound you with promotional stuff, and there’s no commitment to buy if you change your mind after seeing the phones.

It’s worth mentioning that the $900 in trade-in savings will probably become available to the general public once the Samsung phones are revealed next week, so although it’s not exactly as exclusive as it sounds, it does give you a nice sneak peek into the upcoming S26 preorder deals. You’re probably most likely to get that full $900 off if you’re already the owner of an S25 or maybe an S24 Ultra, but hopefully Samsung is a bit more generous this year.
The $30 credit and $5,000 sweepstakes ARE exclusive to the Galaxy Reserve program, however, so I see very little reason to skip this opportunity if you’re already planning to preorder the Galaxy S26. The promotion ends on February 25th, so don’t wait too long if you’re interested!
When does the Galaxy S26 series come out?
The Galaxy S26 lineup is expected to be revealed during the Samsung Unpacked event on February 25th. The live stream will kick off at 1pm ET / 10am PT and can be watched on YouTube or via Samsung.com.
