We have two deals for you today on Samsung's Galaxy S24 Ultra (don't say we don't spoil you). The most enticing one is $250 off at Best Buy, bringing the price of the SIM-free handset down to a record-low of $1,049.99 for the 256GB model (previously $1,299.99) or $1,169.99 for the option with 512GB of storage (usually $1,419.99). 

The second deal only offers a $120 saving on the smartphone, with a free storage upgrade at no extra cost, meaning you can get the 512GB model for only $1,299.99 at Samsung. But that's not all – Samsung is generously throwing in a pair of Galaxy Buds2 Pro for no extra cost (worth $229.99) when you purchase the handset locked to a carrier. So really, that's a $350 saving on the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra when you factor in the price of the Buds2 Pro.

Price history: The Best Buy deal offers the lowest price we've seen yet on the S24 Ultra since its release, as it was previously $50 extra last month at Best Buy, and $1,134.99 for a very short time in March during Amazon's Spring Sale. 

Price check: Samsung: $1,299.99 | Best Buy: $1,049.99

Review Consensus: In our review of the S24 Ultra, we found that it had an excellent camera system, with 7 years of updates to look forward to, and we really love that S-Pen too. However, our reviewer felt that the software might fall behind if left unchecked, and at a high price point too.
