One of the biggest events in the consumer tech world is the annual Amazon Prime Day. It gives members access to lucrative discounts, even for flagship smartphones that were just released a few months ago like the Samsung Galaxy S21 series.
Amazon Prime Day 2021: Major discounts for Samsung devices available for a limited time
Samsung is one of the major tech brands to join the Amazon Prime Day festivities, and its fans may want to take this opportunity to upgrade to the new flagship smartphones. Since there is reportedly no Galaxy Note launching this year, Samsung fans might want to consider one of the Galaxy S21 devices.
The base Galaxy S21 with 128GB storage option is available for $599 – after a $200 discount – through Amazon Prime Day. As of this writing, the colors in stock are Phantom Gray, Phantom Pink, Phantom Violet, and Phantom White. The 128GB Samsung Galaxy S21+ is offered at $699, instead of $999.
The Galaxy S21 Ultra, which now supports the S Pen stylus, is being sold with at least a 25 percent discount. A bigger value saving is available for the 256GB priced at $925 after a $325 discount, thanks to Amazon Prime Day.
The true wireless earbuds Samsung Galaxy Buds Live that came out last year is currently available for $109.99 only – its regular price is $169.99. Galaxy Buds Plus comes with a bigger discount value and is only priced at $84.99 during Amazon Prime Day.
There is also a huge discount offered for the 45mm Galaxy Watch 3. With Amazon Prime Day, its original price of $599 has been slashed by 43 percent and the smartwatch will cost $339 until June 22.
Amazon Prime Day 2021: How to join and until when the promos are available
Despite its name, Amazon Prime Day usually takes place for two days. This year, the event officially runs from Monday, June 21 to Tuesday, June 22.
As the name suggests, not everyone can participate and take advantage of the massive discounts offered during Amazon Prime Day. Customers need an active Amazon Prime membership. Customers can sign up for $8.99 per month, which also comes with access to Prime Video. Amazon is also offering a 30-day free trial for those who will sign up for the $119 Prime Annual tier that also grants access to Prime Video and Prime Music.
