Can you buy a Samsung Galaxy S8 for 140 euros? It may seem impossible, but the truth is that it is possible. In fact, when they told me how they got it, I didn't believe it, until I asked for my own. That's how it is how I got my new Samsung Galaxy S8 for 140 euros.
Samsung Galaxy S8 for 140 euros with Vodafone
Mobile operators stopped subsidizing mobiles. Or at least, it was supposed to. Now they offer payment in installments. but it is certainly not like that. Not only do they have payment in installments, but they also have relevant offers in the price of some mobiles. And they are offers that they make to customers before switching to another company, or that they make to those who are going to do a portability.
The best offer we receive comes when we talk about going to another operator. But even if this is not the case, operators often have offers for their own clients that they do not have available for clients arriving from another company. It will depend on how long you have been with them, and of course, on the rate you have.
In this case, I was a Vodafone customer, and I was going to change my operator, but they called me to make an offer. Specifically, the Smart S rate with a 50% discount for 24 months. And also, and here comes the most relevant, the Samsung Galaxy S8 for an installment payment of 10 euros per month for 24 months. That is, in total, about 240 euros for the smartphone. I already had a Smart S rate in Vodafone because in my area it is the operator with the best coverage, so in my case it does not mean spending more money on the rate. Actually, I even save money.
But the point is that 240 euros for the Samsung Galaxy S8 is a really cheap price. The smartphone has a price of about 600 euros. And if we buy it with installment payment in a store that finances it, it will be even more expensive. Acquiring it for 240 euros, and in installment payment, is a really cheap offer.
Samsung gives me 100 euros back
But, I said 140 euros, not 240 euros. And it is because Samsung currently has an offer in which returns 100 euros to buyers of a Samsung Galaxy S8. The offer ends in November 2017. That is, the final payment for the smartphone will be 140 euros. And I am going to receive the 100 euros even before having paid the 240 euros, since it is an amount that I will pay month by month for the next 24 months.
In general, operators always have similar offers. It's not just the Samsung Galaxy S8. If you want to buy a new smartphone, it is a good option to see the offers of your operator, because sometimes they even offer the same rate that you currently have.
