The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra deals have been going strong since the super-powered flagship first hit store shelves last month, but depending on the offer, getting the max savings can be easier said than done. One of the most heavily-advertised deals comes from Verizon, who is claiming to give you the phone for 100% free when you meet all of the eligibility requirements. That last bit is where things get tricky, so we're going to break down all of the requirements to see if you can really get the phone for free.
For starters, you'll need to buy the 256GB Galaxy S23 Ultra and add a line to your wireless service with any of Verizon's 5G Unlimited plans (excluding Welcome Unlimited). Then you'll need to send in an old or broken device for up to $1,000 in trade-in credit. Verizon isn't too picky when it comes to trade-ins, as even older devices like the Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus will get you the full discount.
