Sky Mobile has launched a compelling cashback offer for tech enthusiasts looking to get their hands on Samsung's latest folding smartphone. The network is giving customers £300 cashback when they purchase the new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7, providing a significant saving on the premium device.
The Details of the Sky Mobile Deal
To claim the £300 prepaid Mastercard, shoppers must buy the Galaxy Z Fold7 from Sky Mobile before Thursday, January 29. The claim must be submitted via the Sky website within 30 days of purchase. The cashback is delivered as a prepaid card for use in the Samsung wallet.
Sky is selling the 256GB storage model for £36 upfront, followed by £58 per month on a 24-month contract. This price is for the handset only; customers will need to add an airtime plan. A typical option is the 50GB data plan, which costs an additional £12 per month.
What's New with the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7?
Samsung's latest foldable boasts several upgrades over its predecessor. The company states the Z Fold7 is both slimmer and more durable. It features a larger 6.5-inch cover screen and unfolds to reveal an expansive 8-inch main display, ideal for multimedia and multitasking.
Powering the experience is the speedy Snapdragon 8 Elite processor. Storage options range from 256GB to a massive 1TB. The camera system is headlined by a 200MP wide main lens with 2x optical zoom, supported by a 10MP telephoto lens and a 12MP ultrawide lens. A 4,400mAh battery is designed to support all-day use.
Market Alternatives and Customer Feedback
While Sky promotes its Samsung deal, rival networks have their own offers. O2 is providing a free pair of Pixel Buds 2a (worth £129) with the Google Pixel 10, with contracts from £48.35 monthly. Meanwhile, Amazon is selling Apple's iPhone 17 (256GB) for £799.
The Galaxy Z Fold7 has garnered an impressive 4.7 out of 5-star rating from over 2,200 reviews on Samsung's website. One delighted customer praised its quality and large screen for movies and apps. Another highlighted the powerful 200MP camera and the ability to take selfies using the main lenses.
However, some feedback noted room for improvement. A user mentioned that not all apps are optimised for the large inner display, leading them to use the cover screen more often. Another suggested the battery life, while good, could be better.
This Sky Mobile deal presents a timely opportunity for UK consumers to invest in cutting-edge foldable technology at a reduced cost, just as the market for innovative smartphones heats up.
