Walmart is currently offering a brand new Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus 256GB Smartphone for $9.98/mo for 36 months. That totals out to $359.28. This exact same phone currently sells for $1000 at Samsung.
Verizon Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus 256GB for $359.28
If you already have a Verizon account and plan to stick with Verizon, than this is an outstanding deal by itself because the S23 Plus currently sells for $1000 at Samsung direct. However, this is also a great deal for non-Verizon subscribers because the discount does not involve any bill credits. That means you can potentially pay off the phone early, cancel your plan, and have Verizon unlock after 60 days, per their policy.
The Galaxy S23 Plus is only one generation older than the current Galaxy S24 lineup. The "Plus" model features a larger 6.6" 2340x1080 AMOLED display, a larger 4700mAh battery, and faster wired charging speeds of up to 45W. This is a very relevant phone for 2024 with still high-end specs. It features an aluminum frame with Gorilla Glass Victus 2 front and rear, Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, and an excellent triple lens camera system: 50MP main, 12MP ultrawide, 10MP telephoto (3x zoom). This particular model also comes with 256GB of internal storage. It's only available in Phantom Black.
The 2024 successor is the Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus, which is currently on sale for $850 on Amazon, over double the price of this deal. Although it has a faster processor, higher resolution screen, and at least another year of software updates, it's definitely not worth the price difference. We generally consider Samsung smartphones to be the best Android smartphones you can buy. The caveat is that they're expensive (sometimes even more so than an Apple iPhone). In this case, even if you're a non-Verizon user who has to jump through a few hoops, I think it's worth it.
