Samsung has added the Galaxy S26 series to its Certified Re-Newed program in the United States, with prices starting at $759 for the Galaxy S26, $929 for the Galaxy S26+, and $1,099 for the Galaxy S26 Ultra. Each model is available in the original six color options.
As of this writing the Galaxy S26+ is missing from the Certified Re-Newed store; it should be added shortly or may already be live when you read this.
What Certified Re-Newed Galaxy S26 means
Certified Re-Newed Galaxy phones are used devices reconditioned by Samsung using 100% genuine parts. They ship with all-new batteries, pass a 147-point inspection, and include a one-year limited warranty. Certified Re-Newed units arrive factory reset with the latest available firmware, so the initial setup is identical to that of a brand-new phone.
Certified Re-Newed devices are eligible for Samsung Care+ with Theft and Loss. For a fee, subscribers can receive protection against accidents, breaks, and other damage, including unlimited battery repairs and $0 cracked screen and back panel repairs.
Because these phones are sold directly through Samsung’s online shop, buyers can further reduce the price with a trade-in by exchanging an old phone for a discount on a Galaxy S26 Certified Re-Newed device.
For buyers who prefer new devices, the Galaxy S26 series remains available new from Samsung’s online store at the usual starting prices: $899 for the Galaxy S26, $1,099 for the Galaxy S26+, and $1,299 for the Galaxy S26 Ultra.
Samsung’s Certified Re-Newed program is also live in select European countries and in India; the Galaxy S26 series may join the Re-Newed lineup in those regions soon.
