Unfortunately you won't be getting that value as Samsung trade-ins are pretty shit outside of US. You can gauge your latest trade-in value here https://www.samsung.com/my/offer/mobile/trade-in/ or with the InstaCash app, which is what Samsung uses.

Best case is getting extra rebate from trade-in promo. Example Z Fold 3 had an extra RM500 rebate if you trade in, and I had a non-functional Note 8 which had RM1 value, but I could still get the RM500 rebate even if I traded in the phone.
RM500 value for a dead phone is good, but I decided to save it to trade in for S22 Ultra
*
I could get rm1020 for the S21 FE (RM820 + RM200 instant trade in rebate). Then another rm400 evoucher. Total 1,420 off, not counting additional rm500 less to pay for next year tax claim.

I'm hoping for something similar for base S22.

Haha seems like everyone learned their lesson with fold3/flip3 incident.

I'm also skeptical to pre order. See if my n9 trade in value decent or not.

Looks very much like s21..

Okay I see 20% EPP. Paired with RM800 trade in value can get base S22 for RM2,000. Then can get further RM588 tax rebate next year when file taxes for YA 2022.

Here's the explanation by one of the forumers.
You also feel a bit confused with all those promotions ah? haha. No worry. Let me explain it to you.
Scenario A:

First, before the S22 series being announced, if you have an account with Samsung Malaysia website, you would have received an email telling you that you will get RM200 e-voucher if you register your interest with S22 series. This voucher can only be used after 25 Feb, to buy samsung wearables or accessories.
Now back to S22 pre-order.

When you try to pre-order, there's an option for you to trade in your old phone. If you choose it, you follow the given instructions. After you trade in succesfully, the trade in money will be banked into you bank account. Afterwards, you apply your trade in ID in your pre-order page, you will get RM200 discount on your purchase of S22 series. So ya. You have to wait for their people come to collect your phone first before you can finish your order.

The last one, when you pre-order, don't forget to apply the voucher code that provided by those tech blogs in order to get that free 45W charger. And of course, while stock last.

So if you do all the above, and if you do it right, you can get pre-order free gifts + RM 200 e-voucher (registered interest) + 45W charger (apply tech blog code) + RM200 discount (if you trade in) + extra cash in your bank (if you trade in).
Scenario B

If you have EPP or EDU, you can order the phone with special discount using the company staff benefit or student benefit. But in one condition, no free gift. This exclusive offer cannot be shared to public. But somehow there's one person out there in Samsung community forum shared how to exploit the EDU. Of course in the end, the exploitation was found out by Samsung and the EDU offer was forced to close down so soon.
Ok. I think I already explain it quite thoroughly. Hope this can help you understand better. biggrin.gif

One thing wrong, you don’t need to complete trade in before check out. You can check out first, then later on complete the trade in.

What was the edu store exploit?

Why Zerolution? You're paying 9% interest on a phone purchase...

If do trade in using InstaCash, can you hold on to your phone and only turn it in until after you've received the new phone? Since in any case, you only get the device trade-in value once you complete the trade-in.

Appreciate if those who've done this in the past can reply.

Otherwise, really doesn't make sense to give up phone before receiving new phone.
