Upgrade your tablet, earphones and smartwatch for £0 as retailer dishes out Samsung freebies
Samsung enthusiasts can bag a tech bundle worth nearly £600 this month in a massive summer giveaway. Everyone loves a freebie, and we've discovered a method to get three items for free when upgrading to a new mobile phone.
For a limited period, customers who purchase a new device from Samsung's Galaxy S25 range can secure a complimentary tablet, smartwatch and earbuds with a combined value of £596. The offer is available from Currys-owned retailer Mobiles.co.uk, which includes a free Galaxy Watch7 and Galaxy Buds3 Pro with orders of the Galaxy S25, S25+ or S25 Ultra.
Additionally, customers can visit the Samsung website after placing their order to claim a free Galaxy Tab A9+ worth £259. As reported by the Express, our top pick among the mobile phone deals comes via iD Mobile's £24.99 per month plan, which offers a 500GB data allowance for the price of 100GB.
The 24-month contract has a £79 upfront cost but also includes a six-month free trial of Google One AI Premium, typically priced at £113.94. It's crucial to note that iD Mobile – supported by the Three network – is one of many providers that increase their prices every April, with this plan set to rise to £26.49 from April 2026.
Despite this, the total cost of the plan amounts to £702.76 over the contract term. This is still less expensive than buying the S25 128GB phone from Samsung for £799 and only slightly pricier than Amazon's £699 asking price.
Those considering the S25+ might fancy iD Mobile's offer at £39.99 a month with a £79 upfront cost, while the S25 Ultra comes in at £44.99 a month and £119 upfront. Mobiles.co.uk has left the end date for this promotion open, indicating it will run 'while stocks last'.
The smartwatch and earbuds will be shipped separately to the tablet, arriving directly to the address provided at checkout. To snap up the free tablet, customers must head over to the Samsung offers site post-purchase, though they'll need to do so by June 26 to qualify.
While EE and O2 might be more familiar names, Mobiles.co.uk garners praise on Trustpilot, earning an overall rating of 4.3 out of five from over 16,900 reviews.
A five-star review reads: "Excellent service again. Ordered a SIM contract for my daughter who was paying much more. I highly recommend this company, brilliant service and help."
A second wrote: "Great deal on the Samsung S25. Very quick process, with phone and extras delivered within 24 hours. No issues at all."
Another customer remarks: "Bought my new Samsung mobile and new contract from mobiles.co.uk online. Very easy, received everything as agreed. Brilliant service, would certainly recommend."
Unfortunately, one buyer was less impressed, as they explained: "I bought a phone contract and chose to keep my existing number. It's been over 10 days, and the number still hasn't been transferred."
However, another reviewer had a very positive experience, sharing: " Outstanding company who went above and beyond to ensure I had the best deal. The team were efficient and Sham the customer service representative who sorted my mobile deal was amazing. This is the second time I have used this company and recommend them to all. Speedy delivery once deal is sorted, and quality prices."

All the UK Santander bank branches that will close this week
The closures are estimated to put around 750 jobs at risk and the Spanish-owned bank will also cut hours across 36 sites and switch 18 to be counter-free. Santander said it will be left with 349 branches after the sweeping changes. This week, a handful of those branches are set to close across the country – see the list. The following Santander branches will close this week: Santander said the changes are being made as customers increasingly switch to online banking with it citing a 63% surge in digital transactions since 2019 while branch transactions have slumped by 61% in that time. A Santander UK spokesman said: 'As customer behaviour changes, we are ensuring that our branches remain fit for the future. 'Our new combination of full-service branches, alongside work cafes, counter-free branches and reduced hours branches, aims to provide the right balance between digital banking and face-to-face money management and guidance.' He added: 'Closing a branch is always a very difficult decision and we spend a great deal of time assessing where and when we do this and how to minimise the impact it may have on our customers.' Santander said that from June 30, the majority of the reduced-hours branches will be open three days a week – either Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 9.30am to 3pm, or Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9.30am to 3pm and Saturdays from 9.30am to 12.30pm. Recommended reading: Santander announces huge change with millions of customers set to benefit Santander axes popular service in blow to millions of customers across UK Santander issues urgent WhatsApp warning to all of its customers The bank announced in March that it would change 18 sites to being counter-free from June 16 but stressed they will also be manned by staff to offer face-to-face support with an average of eight workers in these branches. The group will be recruiting 95 new 'community bankers' in the locations where it is shutting branches and hopes to redeploy some of the affected workers into these jobs. They will visit local communities on a weekly basis, based in centres such as libraries and community halls. Is your local Santander branch closing? Let us know in the comments.

I tried Samsung's posh new mobile that makes iPhone look like an expensive BRICK – there's a way to save on upgrading
Tested FEELING THIN The Galaxy S25 Edge makes two key sacrifices for its lighter, thinner new model All recommendations within this article are informed by expert editorial opinion. If you click on a link in this story we may earn affiliate revenue. Jamie Harris Published: 20:56, Updated: 20:56, SAMSUNG has had a pretty packed year in smartphone world. First, we had the usual Galaxy S25 launches at the start of the year - and then there were some great budget-friendly models too. 6 6 And now we're back to the Galaxy S25 again with a new category. This time it's all about thin, thin, thin. All the tech packed inside ever-powerful phones make it tricky business to stop them from becoming almighty hunks of metal. What with chunky batteries, all that processing power needed for AI tools, the list goes on. But Samsung is determined to give it a go with the new Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge - even if there are some sacrifices. As The Sun's main Android smartphone reviewer I get hands-on with all sorts of devices all the time. Here's why you might want to consider the Galaxy S25 Edge if you're fed up with chunky mobiles weighing down your pocket. Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge: Look and feel How the Galaxy S25 Edge looks and feels is arguably the most important first bit of information you want. And the good news is, it's immense. I can't remember the last time I held a phone of this size and power that felt this light, at only 163g. Samsung insider reveals top tricks every user needs to know about to save battery and storage A website on the weight of items tells me that's about as heavy as an average hockey puck. The Galaxy S25+ and iPhone 15 Plus are the fairest comparisons to note, because they both have a 6.7inch display like the S25 Edge. A Galaxy S25+ weighs 190g, while the iPhone 15 Plus is 201g. But it's not just the weight, the Edge is super thin at 5.8mm - Samsung's thinnest ever phone. Looking for objects around the house, the nearest item I could compare it to is a tiny bit thicker than my passport. Again, the Galaxy S25+ is 7.3mm thick and the iPhone 15 Plus is 7.8mm. This makes the iPhone - and just about every other smartphone, even Samsung's other models - look and feel like a brick. Despite all this, the titanium body and hardened glass on the S25 Edge feel pretty tough, though I'd worry it might bend if I accidentally sat on it a few times too many. 6 Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge: Performance and software From a software and performance perspective, the Galaxy S25 Edge feels just like the other phones in the series. It runs on Samsung 's own version of Android, One UI. One UI has a consistent, clean and easy look that I like. All the S25 devices run on Android 15, One UI 7, which is the very latest version of both, straight out of the box. And once again, Samsung offers a whooping seven years of security and software updates. Look after the handset it could last you quite sometime thereby saving you money on upgrades. Who offers free updates longest? The longer you receive updates, the longer you can safely continue using your smartphone - with the latest features thrown in too for free. Samsung For the Galaxy S25 series, Samsung said it would provide at least seven generations of OS updates and seven years of security updates. OnePlus At the launch of the OnePlus 13, OnePlus committed to at least four years of Android updates and six years of security updates. Xiaomi Xiaomi offers four years off Android updates and five years security updates. Google For the Pixel 9 series, Google said that devices would receive at least seven years of support. Like the other S25 devices, the Edge version uses the same powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite chip on the inside to keep things running super smooth. As such, apps, games and anything else you throw at it glides through without any issue or lag. Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge: Features The Galaxy S25 Edge carries all the same great features as the other models too, with a large focus on AI tools this year. Samsung moved closer to Google and its Gemini digital assistant. Though not exclusive to Samsung, it's worth mentioning that Gemini is really handy - I was using it to identify problems with my plant the other day. As for Samsung's own newer features there's Now Brief, an AI companion that acts as a central hub for everything going on in your day. This keeps you in check with not only your calendar and weather but learns about your habits so will warn you about things such as traffic. Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge: Battery Now battery is the big one I was most curious about given that it's the part that takes up a lot of physical space in phones. Sticking to its nearest comparable sibling, the S25+, the battery on the Edge is smaller. The Edge has a 3,900 mAh, compared to the S25+'s 4,900 mAh. And seeing as I mentioned the iPhone 15 Plus before, it's worth noting that the battery there is 4,383 mAh. The battery and camera sacrifices are bold to say the least So, physically speaking the Edge is much lower. Samsung has done some performance optimising to get around this but there's still only so much they can do. With general on and off usage throughout my day - using apps like WhatsApp, checking emails, watching the odd video and going on social media - I could get a day out of it. But constant power users watching loads of videos probably won't make it through the day without help. What's more, the Galaxy S25 Edge doesn't charge as fast as it's sister handsets either. Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge: Camera The other big difference is on camera with only two on the back of the S25 Edge. There's no telephoto sensor to take clear photos from a distance - which is something you would expect from a phone that costs upward of a grand. But the 200-megapixel main camera and 12-megapixel ultrawide camera do manage to take some detailed pics popping with colour. 6 6 6 Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge: Pricing The Galaxy S25 Edge starts from £1,099 / $1,099. But there is a new way to keep the cost of expensive phones down in the form of Samsung Club. For a lower monthly cost, you can get the latest Galaxy every year rather than buying outright each time, plus other perks. The Galaxy S25 Edge is the first phone being offered as part of the scheme from £33.31 per month. Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge: Verdict Final thoughts by Jamie Harris, Assistant Technology and Science Editor at The Sun The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is a slick looking phone there is no questioning that, it oozes sexy. You get a gorgeous display, as well as the tried and trusted Samsung experience on the phone as well. The battery and camera sacrifices are bold to say the least. While I love not being weighed down by a phone in my pocket, it's hard to overlook these two drawbacks when the price tag tops a grand. Rating: 4/5 All prices in this article were correct at the time of writing, but may have since changed. Always do your own research before making any purchase.
