Samsung has expanded sales of its factory-refurbished smartphones to Amazon, offering seven models across 14 storage configurations starting at $489. The newly available inventory includes devices from the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S25 generations, featuring the Galaxy S24 FE, base models, Plus versions, and Ultra editions. [1][2][3]
Sold under the Certified Re-Newed program, the phones are overhauled by Samsung technicians using genuine components and fitted with brand-new batteries. Each unit undergoes a 147-point quality inspection before packaging in fresh retail boxes, and buyers receive a one-year warranty along with the option to purchase Samsung Care+ coverage. [1][2][3]
The storefront rollout marks the first time Samsung has offered its refurbished lineup through Amazon rather than solely via its official website. While Samsung sells newer Galaxy S26 refurbished devices directly on its own site, those newer handsets have not yet arrived on the Amazon storefront. [1][2][3]
