Samsung’s Galaxy S26 Ultra comes with a free £820 gadget bundle this week
Sky Mobile customers can get their hands on a free Samsung smartwatch and earbuds bundle if they beat a looming deadline
The Galaxy S26 Ultra is Samsung’s most powerful model ever
Samsung has returned with a huge giveaway offering customers hundreds of pounds worth of free tech when they upgrade their smartphone. The promotion is running for a limited period at Sky Mobile, where customers can snap up a free Samsung smartwatch and earbuds bundle worth £818.
The package is up for grabs when signing up for a Sky contract with the new Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra before the July 21 deadline. Those who do so can secure a free Galaxy Watch Ultra worth £599 and a pair of Galaxy Buds4 Pro worth £219.
These gadgets would set shoppers back a total of £818 if purchased directly from Samsung, but Sky customers can claim the smartwatch at no extra cost, while the earbuds will be automatically dispatched within 30 days of purchase. Similar offers are available with both the standard Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26+, which include a watch and earbud package worth £538.

Sky’s monthly prices for the Galaxy S26 Ultra start at £45 when spreading the cost, plus £12 upfront. The S26 and S26+ start at £30 and £38 respectively.
One thing to note is that these tariffs come with a small 100MB data allowance, so heavier users may want to opt for a bigger plan at additional cost. It’s also worth noting that Sky’s mobile contracts run for 36 months, with the option to upgrade after 24 months, reports the Daily Record.
Get a free £818 Samsung Galaxy bundle
Sky Mobile customers can get a free Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra and Galaxy Buds4 Pro worth £818 when ordering the Galaxy S26 Ultra.
Sky isn’t the only retailer offering freebies for shoppers looking to upgrade, as EE customers can snap up a Galaxy Watch Ultra in the network’s summer sale, which also features £720 off the Galaxy S26 Ultra. Here, customers can bag a £20 monthly discount on the 125GB Essentials plan for a total of £55.59 per month (was £70.59) and £20 upfront.
For those who’d rather purchase their tech outright, Amazon is slashing £320 off the Galaxy S26 Ultra until July 14, pricing it at £951 (was £1,279). The Ultra is Samsung’s most advanced Galaxy handset to date, launched in March as the most premium model in the S26 series.
It runs on a lightning-fast Snapdragon processor, featuring a 6.9″ AMOLED display and high-resolution 200MP camera. It also includes the innovative Privacy Display feature, which renders the screen content invisible unless viewed head-on.
The battery has received an upgrade too, with a 30-minute charge said to power the device up to 75%. While reviews aren’t available for the Galaxy S26 Ultra at Sky Mobile, Samsung customers have given it an impressive 4.9-star rating.
One reviewer said: “Super – it looks even better than the pictures. The phone works very fast, everything runs smoothly with no lag. The screen is large and very nice, perfect for watching movies and browsing the internet. The camera takes very good photos – especially in daylight, they are very sharp and detailed.”
Another said: “One of the best phones I’ve used. The battery life is really solid – it easily gets through a full day even with quite heavy use. Photos come out super clear and detailed and even night shots look surprisingly good. Performance-wise, the phone feels super smooth. Apps open quickly, multitasking is easy, and I haven’t noticed any lag at all. Everything just works the way you expect it to.”
However, some were less than pleased that the S26 Ultra doesn’t include both a plug and charging cable, as one review says: “Considering the high price tag I would expect the phone to come with a plug and a cable so the device can be charged.”
Meanwhile, this glowing five-star review stated: “The S26 Ultra delivers an exceptional smartphone experience. Its camera captures stunning, detailed photos in any lighting condition. The display is bright, smooth and incredibly immersive for media and gaming. Performance is lightning-fast, handling multitasking and heavy apps effortlessly, making it a powerful and reliable flagship device for everyday use.”
