If you’re thinking about picking up Samsung’s latest and greatest phones, there are plenty of great deals running during the pre-order period. Optus has a clear standout, offering a $799 discount on the 1TB Galaxy S23 Ultra.

This brings the effective cost down to $1,850. That’s $100 cheaper than you’d pay for the entry-level Galaxy S23 Ultra outright.

To get this deal, you need to buy the Galaxy S23 Ultra from Optus on a plan, and the discount is applied as a monthly reduction in handset repayments. You’re effectively saving $33 per month on a 24-month term, or $22 per month on a 36-month plan. This offer is available until 11.59pm, 16 February.

Just note that if you leave during your repayment period, you’ll forfeit the remainder of the discount. As such, you’re effectively locked into Optus for two or three years.

All Optus postpaid mobile plans are free from excess data charges. If you go over your allowance, you’ll be slowed to speeds of 1.5Mbps instead of paying extra. You can also score discounted access to Optus Sport; you’ll pay $6.99 per month instead of $24.99 per month.

If none of these plans is your thing, here’s a look at the cheapest 24-month plans from Telstra, Optus, and Vodafone:
