Samsung’s “Re-Newed” Program Makes Galaxy Z Foldables More Affordable

Earlier in April, Samsung added the Galaxy S24 series of phones to its Certified Re-Newed smartphones program. The company started offering significant savings with prices starting at $619 for the base Galaxy S24 model. Samsung has now announced that the Galaxy Z series is also joining the Certified Re-Newed program for the first time.

The brand has announced that it is expanding its Certified Re-Newed program to include the Galaxy Z series phones for the first time. Starting today, consumers can buy the re-newed Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 units exclusively from the company’s website. Unfortunately, Samsung hasn’t yet added last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6 units to the Certified re-newed program at the moment.

For those unaware, the Certified Re-Newed program offers products “serviced by Samsung specialists and repaired with 100% Samsung genuine parts, including a certified new battery.” Furthermore, Samsung backs these products with a one-year manufacturer’s warranty.

Consumers can bring down the pricing by using the trade-in offers available on the company’s website.

Samsung’s website is accepting phones from brands like Apple, Google, and Motorola, apart from its own devices, in the trade-in offer.
