Samsung makes its mobile phone exchange program more flexible; let’s see what will change

Samsung announced that it has made significant changes to its Galaxy Trade-in trade-in program. Now the service lets you trade in old devices at any time, but doesn’t require an immediate new purchase.

Originally exclusive to South Korea and France, the revamped Galaxy Trade-in aims to “increase the value of Galaxy devices” in the long term by offering significant savings during the trade-in process.

The main change to the Galaxy Trade-in program is the end of the need for instant purchases. Previously, the program made it possible to trade in an old mobile phone only when purchasing a new device from the Samsung website or application.

Moreover, changes can be made whenever you want. In some regions, Galaxy Trade-In only allowed trading on older devices during certain periods (usually before the launch of new models).

However, some restrictions still apply: Galaxy Trade-In only allows exchange of high-end devices brand — Galaxy S family and Galaxy Z Flip 3 or Z Fold 3 and later foldable devices.

Galaxy Swap in Brazil?

THE TecMundo Contacted Samsung to inquire about changing the exchange program in Brazil. According to the company, there is no estimate yet on whether the service will reach here.
