Samsung Adds Galaxy S26 to Certified Re-Newed Lineup
Confirmed
In Short: Samsung has expanded its Certified Re-Newed program to include the Galaxy S26 series, offering refurbished devices at a discount.
Samsung has added the Galaxy S26, S26+, and S26 Ultra to its Certified Re-Newed lineup, making them available at a lower price point. According to reports, these devices undergo Samsung’s inspection and are assembled using 100% genuine Samsung parts, including a brand-new battery. The company claims that each unit provides a "like-new phone experience," and users can purchase them via Samsung.com.
The Galaxy S26 series, which debuted earlier this year, is among the best sellers in the flagship space. Samsung notes that certified renewed units come with a one-year limited warranty, similar to new phones. Additionally, users can opt for Samsung Care+, which offers protection against accidents, breaks, or other damage.
Droid Life reports that the Galaxy S26 series certified renewed devices will be available at a discount, saving customers at least $200 on the Galaxy S26 Ultra, $170 on the S26+, and $140 on the smallest Galaxy S26. The company also mentions that users can use their current phones as a trade-in to get these devices even cheaper.
The Galaxy S26 series features the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 Platform for Galaxy, along with Galaxy AI features such as Now Brief and Now Nudge. These devices are exclusively available via Samsung.com, making them a convenient option for those looking to save on their next flagship phone.
