Samsung is Moviesabout to announce a range of new phones next week, and you can get a discount on one if you register your interest now.

When Galaxy Unpacked airs on Wednesday, Jan. 22, Samsung is widely expected to announce the Galaxy S25 series of flagship smartphones. It's widely expected that there will be at least three models: Galaxy S25, S25+ and S25 Ultra, just like last year. There will most likely also be other devices as well, but this is going to be a phone-centric event, in all likelihood.

That leads us to pre-orders. The official pre-order process isn't live yet, but it will likely go live during or right after the event on Wednesday. However, on Samsung's website, you can reserve a spot in line (so to speak) for some potential savings:

• $50 credit on Samsung's store

• Up to $1,250 in "additional savings"

• A chance to enter a sweepstakes for $5,000 in Samsung credit

There are a couple of things to note here. One is that you don't need to put a deposit of any kind down to get access to these perks. In other words, if you want a Galaxy S25, there's absolutely no reason not to register for these bonuses. Second, the "additional savings" will most likely come from trade-ins, and if that's the case, you will probably get less than $1,250 depending on which phone you are trading in. "Up to" is doing a lot of work in that bullet point.

Unfortunately, we don't officially know when pre-orders will go live or when the phone will be on store shelves. But, at the very least, you can put your name on a list to potentially get some money off of a Galaxy S25 when the time comes.
