Samsung just slashed Galaxy S21 prices at Amazon, taking up to $250 off

By Andrew Martonik Published February 22, 2021

Samsung has just slashed prices for its Galaxy S21 series on Amazon as part of a “Samsung Week on Amazon” promotion that runs now through February 28. The Galaxy S21, S21+, and S21 Ultra are $100 to $250 off their launch prices. Considering they’re just a month old, this deal is incredible.

The base

Galaxy S21 is marked down to $699

, which is fantastic. That’s just $100 more than

the Galaxy S20 FE

right now, which is discounted itself.

The top-end

Galaxy S21 Ultra is only $999

now, making it much more attainable. It was already my favorite Android phone at its original $1,200 price, and this really seals the deal if you can pick one up at a discount.

Here’s the best part: Whether on purpose or accident, Samsung’s actually discounting the higher-storage variants of all three phones even more, completely covering the price difference in the models. That means you can pick up a 256GB model for the exact same discounted price as a base 128GB model. Those who lament the loss of the SD card slot may turn their heads when they can get double the storage for the same price.

Samsung’s running this discount, throughout the week, but I wouldn’t delay … stock may get impacted quickly with these deep cuts. Samsung says it’ll have further discounts on TVs, soundbars, monitors, and audio accessories this week as well, so keep your eyes on

Samsung’s previous-gen flagship phones are yet to get a taste of Android 15, but for the adventurous few who signed up for beta testing, they finally have some consolation coming their way. Samsung has started the rollout of One UI 7’s fourth beta update for the Galaxy S24 series smartphones.

Multiple users on X, Samsung’s Community Forum, and YouTube have shared news of the latest beta update arriving on their Galaxy S24 series phones in India and Korea. The update also brings the February Android security patch, but the most notable addition is a key camera trick that Samsung introduced with the Galaxy S25 series earlier this year.

Samsung is reportedly making a major stylus input change for its next book-style foldable device as it moves forward in pursuit of slimmer phones. According to a report from ET News, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 will switch the stylus input to a format similar to that of the Apple Pencil.

Citing industry sources, the Korean outlet mentions that Samsung has decided to remove the digitizer element from the upcoming phone’s display assembly. The digitizer is a pressure-sensitive layer that converts the physical input from a stylus and converts those strokes into digital information.
