Samsung Makes New $616 Double Offer To Galaxy S25 Buyers
The Korean company's new double offer is one of its best yet and a clear indication that we're edging closer to the launch of a new product. Specifically, the Galaxy Z Fold 7, which should land this summer. In the meantime, Samsung is ramping up its discounts and freebies to clear stock before the new foldable phone steals the limelight.
The offer applies to Galaxy S25 Ultra shoppers in the U.K. and combines freebies and discounts.
The bundle promotions are fairly commonplace and included in almost every Samsung sale. But the combination of a free tablet and the guaranteed £200 off (without a trade-in) is a serious deal that totals £459 ($616) and is absolutely worth your attention. Even if you don't keep the tablet, selling it on the secondary market, unopened, will net between £150 ($201) and £200.
It's worth pointing out that Samsung's £259 valuation of the tablet is the device's highest possible price. The reality is that the Galaxy A9 Plus is being sold on Amazon for £175 ($235), which is down from £208 ($279). At Currys, the tablet is on sale at £209 ($280).
Interestingly, up until Wednesday morning, Samsung was giving away a free pair of Galaxy Buds 3 Pro with the Galaxy S25 Ultra, but the company seems to have suddenly switched to offering the Galaxy Tab A9 Plus instead.
Samsung runs different deals for different territories. This week, the company bought back a version of its Samsung Boost program for U.S. shoppers, which gifts lengthy subscriptions to streaming services and software.
Meanwhile, in the U.K., the company has previously given away free Chromebooks, earbuds, watches and now the Galaxy A9 Plus. Your mileage may vary on which you prefer. To me, free hardware is always the better deal. Not least because the device can be sold to extend your discount on the smartphone.
Regardless of the offer type, buying directly from Samsung remains the most attractive option for deal hunters. Only Amazon comes close with deals that often match, or undercut, Samsung's pricing.
Even for this Samsung store deal, Amazon is giving away a free pair of Buds 3 Pro or Buds 3 with all Galaxy S25 Ultra purchases. Amazon has a bigger 30% bundle discount on the Galaxy Watch Ultra and Galaxy Watch 7 compared to Samsung's 20% promotion. Alongside a £100 credit to be used on Samsung items bought through Amazon.
The difference between the two promotions is that Samsung's upfront Galaxy S25 Ultra price is lower than Amazon's (£1,099/$1,477 vs £1,049/$1,410) and the Korean company is giving it all away for free, whereas Amazon gives shopper a choice between which freebie to choose, nor does it include a trial to Samsung Care Plus.

The Maker of Fabergé Eggs Has Been Sold to a Tech Investor
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." A tech entrepreneur has acquired Fabergé, the historic luxury brand famous for its ornate jeweled eggs, in a $50 million deal. Technology investor Sergei Mosunov, a Russian national, purchased the company through his U.S.-based investment firm, SMG Capital, more than 10 years after UK-based miner Gemfields acquired Fabergé. Under the agreement, Gemfields will receive $45 million when the sale closes later this month and the remaining $5 million through quarterly royalty payments. Founded by jeweler Peter Carl Fabergé in St. Petersburg, the company created gem-encrusted eggs for Russian emperors Alexander III and Nicholas II between 1885 and 1916. The surviving eggs continue to sell for millions at auctions when they do pop up. The record-holder is the Rothschild Clock Egg, which in 2007 sold for £8.9 million (approximately $18.5 million at the exchange rate at the time). In 2004, Russian billionaire Viktor Vekselberg bought nine imperial eggs from the Forbes family for more than $90 million, endowing him with one of the largest private collections of Fabergé eggs. Today, Fabergé also makes more modern luxury products like jewelry, including engagement rings and wedding bands, and high-end watches. But continuing to make Fabergé eggs are still the cash cows. A Guilloché enamel strawberry surprise egg, for example, retails for approximately $74,000. Mosunov told the Financial Times that it is 'a great honor for me to become the custodian of such an outstanding and globally recognized brand.' He also said that he plans to direct the company to continue its focus on newer products like watches and jewelry.

Report – Inter Milan Put Off By €70M Price Tag For Monaco Star
Inter Milan are reportedly put off by the €70 million price tag from Monaco to sign forward player Maghnes Akliouche. This according to French outlet L'Equipe, via FCInterNews. Right now, Inter Milan are still all-in on signing Ademola Lookman. However, the Nerazzurri are accepting the possibility that their pursuit of the Nigerian could fail. Inter see Lookman as a perfect opportunity to bolster their attack with a proven commodity from within Serie A. However, they will not break the bank to sign the 27-year-old. And if Inter cannot sign Lookman for what they consider a reasonable fee, they will sign a different attacker. Inter Milan Put Off €70M Monaco Asking Price For Maghnes Akliouche France's midfielder #21 Maghnes Akliouche celebrates his team's sixth goal during the U23 friendly football match between France and Dominican Republic at Mayol Stadium in Toulon, south-eastern France, on July 11, 2024, in preparation for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

The 23-year-old certainly impressed in a recent friendly match against Inter. He scored the opening goal within a minute. Therefore, it was not necessarily a surprise to see the Nerazzurri approach Monaco with an interest in signing Akliouche. According to L'Equipe, however, the price tag proved to be prohibitive. Monaco want a fee of €70 million for Akliouche. And that is more than Inter are able to spend.

Why quality non-US stocks are the 'cream of the crop'
Richard Bernstein Advisors (RBA) CEO Rich Bernstein joins Market Domination with Yahoo Finance Markets Reporter Josh Schafer and Interactive Brokers chief strategist Steve Sosnick to explain why he recommends quality non-US stocks that have been overlooked. To watch more expert insights and analysis on the latest market action, check out more Market Domination. What are the other companies then, Rich? W- Where do you have your your eyes set on? So for me personally, I think I think the cream of the crop of the companies that are uh growing the same or better and people are ignoring would be quality stocks outside the United States. Look, let's let's set the stage here for a second. I don't think most people realize that the Euro stocks index is up about 20 something percent this year. Germany is up 30 something percent in US dollar terms versus Nasdaq up 9 to 10. Right? So the backdrop is you've already got a lot of performance going on that nobody cares about, but if you look at non-US quality, their growth rate, their anticipated growth rate is the same in some cases better than the MAG 7. They give you 10 times the dividend yield, basically 0.3 versus three, and they're selling at discounts of 30 to 50%. So Josh, the way I'd like to think about it is, if you could buy a Maserati for the price of a Chevy, wouldn't you do it? I think you probably would, and I think you'd probably ask me for two or three of them. Well, that's basically what's going on as the Maseratis are on sale. But Rick, you recently contributed to our Yahoo Finance chart book and so too did Steve Sosnick who's sitting next to me and you just hit on essentially exactly what Steve and I talked about during that project. Steve, you highlighted international stocks, right? And you you pointed out that rally. I mean, what do you make of sort of that side of the trade? Is there still more opportunity given the rally that we've seen outside of the US? Is that an area that you'd still be looking for? I would be, because for the for the reasons uh Rich just said. I mean, there there's a there are a lot of stocks that have been overlooked for years, and certainly you can't one thing you can't say about the the MAG 7 and friends is that they've been overlooked. Everybody everybody who's anywhere, thanks to um just their weights and indexes and FOMO and all these other factors, have been investing in them. So um yes, if you can if you can find these alternatives outside the US or or wherever, well, you know, even in the US, but but generally there's there's more of them outside the US. People have gotten um more tuned to that, um I think, you know, as the as the calendar turned, uh but that trade is not over yet. There there's still there's still plenty of value out there. I'm certainly not going to argue with that.
