Samsung fans rush to get £23 a month S24 mobile - £259 worth of freebies
Shoppers can earn cashback and get a pair of Galaxy Buds3 - here's how
Along with the likes of Apple iPhones and Google Pixels, Samsung phone are often considered to be one of the best quality around, however paying hundreds up may not suit all shoppers. This is where Galaxy fans can now split the cost into smaller monthly payments and get freebies worth £259 ontop.
The Samsung Galaxy S24 FE is now £23 a month at Sky, on a 36-month contract, but it comes with two huge freebies. The network provider is handing out £100 cashback and a pair of Galaxy Buds3 worth £159 to shoppers.
As part of Samsung's cashback sale, the£100 cashback is offered until June 24, 2025 and the free Buds3 offer ends the following day on June 25, 2025. Samsung's S24 FE has 128GB of space and is offered in mint, blue, graphite and yellow colours.
It features 'Photo Assist', an AI-powered tool that offers suggestions on how to instantly enhance photos, and 'Generative Edit', which moves, deletes or resizes objects in images.
The screen size is 6.7 inches, and a triple camera on the rear. The phone is also water and dust resistant (up to IP68).
On the Samsung S24 FE's camera performance, tech writer Chris Hall says: "When it comes to the cameras, you have a 50-megapixel main camera, with an ultrawide and telephoto lens on the back with 3x optical zoom.
"That's the complete package, and while it's not as good as a flagship phone, you're well catered for. The day-to-day experience is much the same, with the same One UI software and Galaxy AI features."
Sky isn't the only retailer offering freebies on the Samsung S24 FE. On Amazon, shoppers can buy the handset outright for £598 and claim a free Galaxy Watch 7 and cashback (amount not specified).
Meanwhile, Samsung is also selling the phone outright on its official website for £649, although there aren't any freebies thrown in.
On the overall performance of the Samsung S24 FE, Chris continues: "The great thing about the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE is that you get an experience that's really close to the Galaxy S24+.
"The Galaxy S24 FE isn't quite as slim and a little heavier, but it has the same size display, which is AMOLED, but at a slightly lower resolution." He also notes a drawback: "It's not quite as powerful and the battery is a little smaller, but it's more affordable, and that's the point."
Over at GiffGaff, shoppers can choose monthly contracts for Samsung's S24 FE, starting from £18.03 (36-month contract), with an upfront cost of £20.

BREAKING NEWS Canada brutally hits back at Trump's tariffs ultimatum with huge hike that could cripple struggling US industry
After President Donald Trump shut down all trade talks with Canada, the country retaliated by hiking duties on American steel imports. Canada imposed an import quota late Friday and if it is exceeded, certain American steel sent to the country will face a new 50 percent surcharge. Canada's Finance Minister, François-Philippe Champagne, said the government was acting to protect domestic industry from 'unjust US tariffs,' NBC News reported. The response came hours after Trump posted on Truth Social about how Canada is a 'very difficult country to trade with.' His reason for suspending trade negotiations came down to a tax Canada is set to impose on major tech companies starting Monday. 'Based on this egregious Tax, we are hereby terminating ALL discussions on Trade with Canada, effective immediately,' Trump wrote, adding that the levy 'is a direct and blatant attack on our Country.' Last week, the finance minister said he would not delay the implementation of the digital services tax, which applies to any firm making more than $15 million from Canadian internet users. The three percent tax will strike at the heart of American companies like Amazon, Google, Meta, Uber and Airbnb. Canada's response came hours after President Donald Trump made this post criticizing the country for levying a usage tax on American tech companies And because the tax is retroactive back to 2022, one tech lobbying group said American firms will soon have to pay up to $3 billion directly into Canada's treasury. Canada has not ruled out further action to strike back at Trump for ending negotiations, with the government saying it 'remains prepared to take additional steps as needed.' How Canada's hike on US steel imports will affect the industry, which has been struggling for years, is yet to be seen. US Steel Corporation, once one of the most valuable companies in the world, just merged with Japan's Nippon Steel earlier this month after years of declining sales. Canada remains the second largest trading partner of the US, despite all the trade turmoil. Right now, the US has 25 percent tariff on Canadian imports that aren't covered by the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), the trade deal Trump signed in his first term. Canadian energy is exempt from the 25 percent rate but is still tariffed at 10 percent, as are most products that have entered the US since early April. Canada is also hugely impacted by Trump's 50 percent tax on steel and aluminum imports, as the country is largest foreign supplier of those materials to the US. Canada's steel industry has laid off a staggering 1,000 workers since the first US tariffs in March, Reuters reported. It has also been impacted by the 25 percent duties Trump has levied on foreign-made vehicles and parts. This comes as the US rapidly approaches Trump's July 9 deadline to renegotiate trade with countries around the world so they can avoid so-called reciprocal tariffs. Trump first announced the reciprocal tariffs on April 2, which he dubbed 'Liberation Day.' More than 60 countries were hit with import charges of as much as 50 percent. The announcement from the White House led to widespread market panic and falling bond values, which led to Trump enacting a 90-day pause on April 9. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said early Friday that the pause could be extended to Labor Day - and that country-by-country tariffs could be negotiated down in that time. Hours later, Trump echoed a similar sentiment. He said the initial July 9 deadline was not set in stone and could shortened or extended.

Overall, gardeners appeared to be impressed by the product. #

Amazon is investing £40 billion in the UK over the next three years, boosting regional growth New fulfilment centres in Hull and Northampton will create at least 4,000 jobs by 2026 Two more warehouses planned for the East Midlands in 2027 will add thousands more roles Investment also includes upgrades to data centres, tech like drones, and Amazon's London HQ The move supports the government's 'levelling up' agenda, spreading innovation outside London Amazon is making a bold bet on Britain's regions, announcing a landmark £40 billion investment aimed at creating jobs and fuelling economic growth far beyond the traditional powerhouses of London and the South East. At the heart of the expansion are four new fulfilment centres – including confirmed sites in Hull and Northampton – which will bring at least 4,000 new roles by 2026. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Two more large-scale warehouse facilities are planned for the East Midlands in 2027, likely adding thousands more jobs, though the exact locations remain under wraps. But this isn't just about warehouses. Amazon's investment, which spans the next three years, also includes billions in data infrastructure, cutting-edge technologies like drones and robotics, improvements to staff wages and benefits, and a major upgrade to its London headquarters in Shoreditch. (Photo:) | Getty Images The scale and spread of the spending signals a new chapter in Amazon's UK strategy – one that aligns with the government's 'levelling up' agenda and sends a strong message to global investors: Britain, post-Brexit and amid political change, is still a key destination for innovation and growth. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer called it a 'massive vote of confidence in the UK,' while Chancellor Rachel Reeves described it as a 'powerful endorsement of Britain's economic strengths.' Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Amazon CEO Andy Jassy emphasised the company's commitment to reaching every corner of the UK. He said: 'When Amazon invests, it's not only in London and the South East – we're bringing innovation and job creation to communities throughout England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland.' What does it mean for the UK economy? With more than 75,000 already on its payroll, Amazon is one of the UK's largest private sector employers. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad This new injection of funding not only strengthens its logistics network but also helps build long-term regional resilience by introducing high-tech jobs, skills training, and digital infrastructure in under-served areas. For Hull, Northampton, and the East Midlands, it means more than just jobs – it could mark the beginning of a deeper transformation, bringing global tech investment into areas historically overlooked. As the UK economy seeks stable ground and sustainable growth, this investment could provide a much-needed anchor. Are you struggling to make ends meet as costs continue to rise?
