S23 Preorder Feedback ; Trade In deals / Promotion feedback

[SC1988]

These are the worst preorder trade-in deals ever. How dare Samsung try forcing us to sign contracts for 36 months with carriers to get the best deals. Gen Mill and Gen Z hate contracts. People need to boycott till they drop the prices for unlocked trade. For the previous s22 and fold and flip 4 models. CLEARLY SOME PEOPLE ARE BRAINWASHED STILL GETTING THEM. Sadly looking for clout as well. How pathetic.

Yeah I agree but I'm in. 512 graphite ultra. Oh shoot is there anything exclusive on the 1tb?

[SC1988]

They reserved the exclusive colors for unlocked with the worst deals for trades.

[Stoufferb23]

Keep the order. Get out of apple FAST!

I'm not ordering. No way I'm giving up my s22 ultra for 500

[SC1988]

Agreed it is digusting and disloyal to customers. This is not how you do customer relations.

[worstphoneever]

Samsung goes bad so fast. They are dealing with carriers not the customers. Carrier trade in deals are not real deals, just compensation through contract with them. Corruption.

It's a trade-in, and it's basically in line with the rest of the industry. Samsung was an outlier with their insane trade-in deals and pre-order bonuses. Looks like now it's time for them to pull back a bit, but as far as trade-ins go, they were never meant to give you more money than you would get by selling it yourself.

36 months is rhe new norm with rhe carriers now

[SC1988]

Shouldnt have to sign a contract to get the best deal. Sammy should offer fair trade deals for 1k plus devices. 500 for an s22 ultra is disgusting.

[Stoufferb23]

Brand loyalty is less valuable I guess? Giving that much for an iphone to gain new segment of customers.
