Samsung’s annual Samsung Week promotion is running from October 12 to November 1, 2026, timed to the company’s founding anniversary on November 1. Unlike a retailer flash sale, most of these discounts come with conditions — a payment method, a code, a trade-in or a specific model — so the useful work is reading the terms rather than the headline percentage.
The verified offers
- Galaxy Tab S12 Series: $100 off when you pay with PayPal and use code PYPL100 at checkout on samsung.com. The offer runs October 7 to October 20, 2026, one redemption per transaction, and it can be combined with other discounts and promotions.
- Galaxy Z Fold8: promotional discounts up to $200 on select models, running October 12 to November 2, 2026, while supplies last.
- Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra: promotional discounts up to $200 on select models, October 12 to November 2, 2026, while supplies last.
- Samsung Rewards: points earned during Samsung Week are worth 1.5x the usual value for a limited time.
- Samsung Galaxy Card: 5% cash rewards on eligible purchases made with the card on samsung.com.
- Bundled subscription: six months of Google AI Pro at no cost with a Galaxy Z Fold8, Z Fold8 Ultra, Z Flip8, Galaxy S26 FE or Galaxy Tab S12. Offer period runs August 1, 2026 to August 1, 2027.
Samsung also runs trade-in credits, which vary by the device you hand in, and interest-free instalment options on selected models.
What the terms mean in practice
The PayPal offer is the most concrete and the easiest to miss: without the code and the payment method, the Tab S12 price does not change. If you were going to buy a Tab S12 anyway and you have a PayPal account, that is $100 for about thirty seconds of work.
The Z Fold8 discounts are “up to” figures on “select” models, and they are explicitly while-supplies-last. That phrasing usually means the deepest discount applies to specific storage or colour configurations, so check the exact variant in your cart rather than assuming the advertised maximum.
The 1.5x Samsung Rewards multiplier only matters if you already collect and redeem points. Treat it as a modest sweetener, not a reason to buy.
What is not stated
Samsung’s public offer pages do not give a single “up to X% off everything” figure, and they do not list which specific Z Fold8 configurations qualify for the full $200. There is also no published commitment that the discounts stack in every combination, despite the PayPal code being described as combinable.
How to approach it
- Decide which device you actually want before looking at the offers. A discount on the wrong phone is not a saving.
- Check the exact configuration against the offer terms — “select models” is doing real work in that sentence.
- Price the trade-in separately. A high trade-in credit on a device you could sell elsewhere is not automatically the better deal.
- Do the maths on the Google AI Pro bundle only if you would pay for it otherwise.
- Note the deadlines: the PayPal code ends October 20, the Z Fold8 offers run to November 2, and Samsung Week itself ends November 1.
Caveats
All prices, codes and dates here come from Samsung’s own offer pages and press materials as published in October 2026, plus third-party coverage of the promotion. Samsung states that offers may be moderated or terminated at any time, so verify the terms on the product page before checking out. Availability and eligibility vary by region; these terms are for the United States.
