Samsung is set to offer refurbished versions of its own flagship phones in the near future, meaning you'll be able to grab a Samsung Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge without having to break the bank.
Sources told Reuters that Samsung is prepping a refurbished store to maximize its cost efficiency, although the Korean electronics giant has declined to comment on whether the scheme is real.
Refurbished phones in this case refer to handsets that the manufacture returns to an 'as new' state and sells onto other customers at a cut price.
A cheaper Galaxy
Refurbished phones can have anything from cosmetic damage to superficial damage to the box, but the actual product manufacturer refurbs are often indistinguishable from factory fresh versions.
Customers in the US and South Korea are returning handsets to Samsung through the one-year upgrade program meaning there's now a lot of leftover phones ready for refurbishment.
There's no word on how big the discount will be or which countries the handsets will be sold in either.
The source has claimed the refurbishment program will be ready to run during 2017 though so you'll probably be able to buy a refurbished Galaxy S7, Galaxy S7 Edge or even a Galaxy Note 7 from Samsung very soon.
