Samsung Electronics announced on December 22 that it will launch the 'Galaxy AI Academy' promotion from January 1 to March 31 next year, in celebration of the graduation and admission season.

First, from December 19 to 31, ahead of the promotion's official start, Samsung Electronics will hold its first-ever 'Pre-Notification Registration Event.' One thousand customers who participate in this event will be selected by lottery to receive a Starbucks Americano Tall gifticon. Additionally, customers who register for the pre-notification and subsequently purchase a promotional product will receive benefits worth 10,000 won.
The company will also run a pre-purchase AI Experience Group program. Customers who purchase eligible tablet or PC models on Samsung.com or open markets from December 26 to 31 and leave a review by January 15 next year will receive an additional benefit worth 50,000 won on top of the basic benefits.
During the Galaxy AI Academy period, Samsung Electronics will offer a range of benefits to customers who purchase the Galaxy Tab S11, Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra, or Galaxy Tab S10+.
First, genuine accessories will be available at discounts of up to 50%, and customers will receive a three-month subscription to 'Samsung Care Plus,' which helps reduce repair costs in the event of product damage. Customers who purchase the Galaxy Buds3 FE together will also receive an additional discount of 40,000 won.
From January 1 to 14 next year, customers who purchase eligible tablet models and wish to upgrade their storage capacity will receive a 50% subsidy on the upgrade cost. For example, if a customer planning to purchase the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra (Wi-Fi) 256GB model (priced at 1,598,300 won) wishes to upgrade to the 512GB model (priced at 1,767,700 won), they will receive a subsidy of 84,700 won, which is 50% of the price difference of 169,400 won.
Meanwhile, starting January 1 next year, Samsung Electronics will extend the warranty period for Galaxy Tab products sold in Korea to two years for the first time in the country. Among tablet brands available in Korea, Samsung Electronics is the only one to offer a two-year warranty.
Customers who purchase PC products included in the promotion, such as the Galaxy Book5 Pro series, will receive a package including a one-year subscription to Microsoft 365 Personal, a discount on the Switch Backpack, and a three-month subscription to Samsung Care Plus.
In addition, during the Galaxy AI Academy period, Samsung Electronics will offer the Galaxy Buds3 FE, Galaxy Watch Ultra (2025), and Galaxy Watch8 series at discounted prices.
Jung Hojin, Executive Vice President and Head of Samsung Electronics Korea, stated, "We have prepared this promotion so that students embarking on new beginnings can easily experience the latest Galaxy AI-powered products," and added, "We hope you prepare for an exciting new start with these generous benefits."
