There's no question that the Galaxy S23 Ultra is one of the very best smartphones of the year with this device coming packed with features including a very good camera and S Pen stylus tucked inside. It's a top-notch flagship but it does come with a hefty price tag. Buy this device from Samsung's store at full price and you'll pay at least £1,249 to own it.

That's a lot of money but there is a way to grab the Ultra for a whole lot less. In fact, as long as you are quick, you can pop this premium call maker in your online shopping basket and pay under £500.

So how does this deal work and how can you bag this ultimate bargain?

Firstly you need to know Samsung's secret code with the Korean technology giant currently knocking £250 off the price when the word S23ULTRA250 is added at the checkout (this offer ends on November 28 so you'll need to be quick).

This will instantly see the cost drop from £1,249 down to a more reasonable £999.

That's a good discount but things get a whole lot better if you are happy to hand over your current handset.

For example, if you own an iPhone 14 Pro you can give it to Samsung and get an extra £500 off the price of the S23 Ultra.

You'll get that same money off if you have a Google Pixel 7 Pro or Galaxy Z Fold4 - that brings the total price down to just £499 - bargain!

There are lots of other discounts although the older your device the less you'll get when trading in.

On top of £250 off and up to £500 trade-in offers there's also a year of Disney+ when you buy this device.

The only word of warning about buying an S23 Ultra now is that Samsung looks almost certain to reveal an S24 Ultra in January. That means this current device could look a little outdated in just a few weeks.

If that hasn't put you off then there's plenty to like on the current Ultra. Users get a quad rear camera with 100X zoom and improved night shots. There's a stunning 6.8-inch AMOLED screen, speedy Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor and the neat S Pen which slots into the toughened chassis.

Other extras include fast and wireless charging along with long battery life which will easily see you through a day.
