Samsung-exclusive Jetblack and Jadegreen Galaxy S25 Ultra now $250 off, or $630 off w/ trade-in

While we were, and still are with a dwindling color selection, tracking $300 off unlocked Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra smartphones at Amazon and Best Buy, the Samsung exclusive colors are now on sale. If you ask me, the Jetblack and Jadegreen colorways you can only get directly from Samsung are the best of the bunch, and now Samsung is offering a straight up $250 off every storage configuration with deals starting from $1,049.99 shipped.

Again there were $300 price drops on the lighter 256GB and 512GB configurations last week from Amazon, but those offers did not include the best two color options. Last week, the Jetblack and Jadegreen models were $200 off from Samsung, but it has now knocked another $50 off.

If you head over to the Galaxy S25 Ultra landing page on the official site, choose your storage capacity and color, and then scroll down to the “Samsung Trade-in” section – you can choose to trade gear in against your new phone for up to $630 off, or you can just hit the “Get $250 Samsung Instant Savings” to drop the price on the new phone down without trading anything in.

Both the trade-in or no trade options can also be paired up with the “Start building healthy habits with Galaxy” promotions as well. This is entirely optional, but with the purchase of the new phone you can still land up to 40% off a new set of Galaxy Buds 3 Pro, Galaxy Watch Ultra, Galaxy Watch 7, and more.

Hisense’s new 165Hz VRR U7 Google Smart TV upgrades your game room from $698 Amazon low (Up to $600 off)

Today we are touching down with the new 2025 Hisense U7 series mini-LED Google smart TV lineup as the 55-inch modelhas just hit a new Amazon low at $697.99 shipped. After launching back in late March, this model carries a regular price at $1,300 via Best Buy and, while it has been going for closer to $800 as of late at Amazon, is now over $600 off the list price.

Today’s deal on the 55-inch is also joined by some price drops on the 65- and 75-inch variant – just note the 65-inch is matching the Amazon low but we have seen the 75-inch go for $100 less than this:

Alongside the brand’s latest mini-LED tech with up to 3000 Local Dimming Zones and up to 3000 nits of peak brightness, the 2025 Hisense U7 features a native 165Hz panel with a Variable Refresh Rate of 48Hz to 165Hz as well as AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, Auto Low Latency Mode, and Low Latency MEMC to “eliminate screen tearing and controller lag” for your gaming setup. You’ll also find a 2.1.2 channel audio setup with with Dolby Atmos, an AI HDR upscale, Dolby Vision, HDR 10, HDR 10+, Google Assistant built-in, Apple AirPlay, and 4 x HDMI 2.1 inputs at the ready.

See the realism of every shadow cast by the players and the ball. When your TV is backlit by thousands of tiny LEDs, your viewing experience gets even more precise. Think of the LEDs like thousands of pinpoints of light illuminating your screen. And Full Array Local Dimming creates deeper shadows and brighter highlights, while virtually eliminating halos.

Matter-certified Google Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen) now up to $85 off (Open-box, 2-yr. warranty)

Ushered in as part of the Best Buy Deals of the Day, you’ll now find the Google Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen) back down at $239.99 shipped. Regularly $280, this is matching our previous mention at Best Buy and Amazon with $40 in savings and the lowest price we can find from a major retailer. Just be sure to head below for more details and a chance to save even more on an open-box unit.

While we did secure our readers an exclusive discount on the Google Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen) last month down at $230, today’s brand-new price above is otherwise on par with the lowest we have tracked this year from the major online retailers.

That said, if you are willing to consider some open-box listings, the “excellent condition” units are going for less than this over at Best Buy with a 2-year parts and labor warranty – these units “work and look like new” with all original parts, packaging, and accessories included “(or suitable replacement).”

Today’s accessories and charging deals:

Save $125 on Samsung’s most affordable Galaxy Tab S10 FE starting from $375 (Reg. $500)

While we are still tracking straight up $50 price drops on brand new condition Galaxy Tab S10 FE tablets starting from $450 shipped directly from Samsung. And you can also pair that deal up with the official Book Cover Keyboard Slim with the AI Key at a sizable 50% off. Folks looking to save even more will want to scope out the even lower price we just spotted via Best Buy’s “excellent” condition open-box units.

The $50 price drops we are seeing right now straight from Samsung are indeed on par with the best deals we have tracked all-time low on the latest Tab S10 releases. If you must go new, you can’t go wrong with the price drops directly from Samsung, not mention the bonus and optional 50% drop on the official keyboard. It is also, perhaps, worth mentioning that the FE model comes in at $550 or more under the price of the S10 Ultra.

But if you’re looking to save even more than that, Best Buy’s open-box units in “excellent” condition are now $125 off the regular $500 list price starting from $374.99 shipped. They ship with a full 1-year warranty and are now $18 under our previous open-box mention.
