With the recent release of the Samsung Galaxy S24 range, Australia’s big three telcos – Telstra, Vodafone and Optus – are all jostling for your attention. If you’re currently looking to grab the latest iteration of Samsung’s flagship smartphone range, depending on which provider you go with, you can score a selection of bonus gifts. These range from a free Galaxy Watch6 to a pair of earbuds and headphones.

Here are all the bonus gifts being offered by Telstra, Vodafone and Optus, along with the cheapest plans for the Samsung Galaxy S24 series in Australia.

What bonus gifts are being offered with the Samsung Galaxy S24 series?

If you pick up any handset from the Samsung Galaxy S24 range through Vodafone, the telco will chuck in a pair of Samsung Galaxy Buds FE (RRP $199) and AKG Wireless Headphones N700NC (RRP $499).

In addition to these bonus gifts, if you trade in your old handset you can score an extra $400 credit if you get the Galaxy S24 or S24+, or $500 credit with the S24 Ultra, on top of the trade-in credit. In terms of value, this is the best offer going. These offers are available until February 29.

If you grab any of Telstra‘s Samsung Galaxy S24 series plans, the telco will chuck in a Galaxy Watch 6 LTE (40mm or 44mm, valued up to $699) as a bonus gift. This offer is available until March 4.

Optus has a fairly similar gift offer to Telstra. You’ll receive a Galaxy Watch 6 (40mm, RRP $648) for free, provided you remain on one of Optus’ watch plans for the length of your phone plan (ie. 24 or 36 months). This offer is available until April 2.

In Gizmodo Australia’s review of the Galaxy Watch6, we were extremely impressed by it, calling it “the best smartwatch money can buy.”
