Best Buy Slashes Samsung Galaxy S24 Price In New Sale
by Janhoi McGregor · ForbesRetailers are gearing up for Black Friday in a couple of weeks, but that hasn’t stopped them from releasing some early deals. Best Buy has done just that by slashing the Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus price.
The retailer hasn’t dropped the price of the Galaxy S24 Ultra, the best deal you will find for that is at Amazon. Best Buy does, however, have some good deals for the S24 Plus and recently released S24 FE.
As it stands, the Galaxy S24 FE 128GB is $75 off, bringing the price down to $574.99. While the Galaxy S24 Plus 256GB is $100 off, which drops the price down to $899.99. The 512GB variant of the Galaxy S24 Plus is sold out.
Interestingly, the Galaxy S24 FE listing has a note that states the “doorbuster deal” is “coming soon” suggesting that bigger discounts are on the horizon. That isn’t a surprise considering Samsung has already included the S24 FE in several deals since it launched in October.

Is this Best Buy deal worth it?
If you are intent on buying either phone today then yes, both deals are worth it. Samsung isn’t running a straight money-off offer for either phone right now (although it has enhanced trade-in prices across all of its flagship smartphones). Similarly, Amazon is charging more for both handsets.
Best Buy’s Galaxy S24 FE price is particularly impressive, but as the retailer points out that price could change when Black Friday officially kicks off. If you want a better phone for a similar price, buying from Samsung on Black Friday could mean a combination of trade-in prices and a straight discount bringing the base Galaxy S24 down to the FE’s current pricing at Best Buy.
Samsung’s trade-in prices are the ultimate deal neutralizer and have to be factored in when comparing deals. For example, Best Buy will pay $110 for your Galaxy S21 Plus when buying the Galaxy S24 Plus. Samsung will part with $300 for the same device right now. That means you will pay $699 at Samsung versus $789.9 at Best Buy.
If you don’t have a device to trade in and you’re looking to buy either device today, then Best Buy’s offer is the deal for you. But I suspect we will see better pricing, or enticing bundle deals, for both the S24 FE and S24 on Black Friday.
