Samsung introduces EMI-based upgrade plan for flagship phones
Galaxy Forever allows return, retain, or upgrade after one year
Samsung bundles Care+ with Galaxy Forever for 13 months

Samsung has introduced Galaxy Forever in India, a new ownership programme aimed at making its flagship smartphones more accessible. The offer applies to the Galaxy S26 Ultra and Galaxy S26+, which were launched in the country in February. Under this programme, customers can use the devices for a year by paying half of the cost through 12 no-cost EMIs. This effectively gives users a 50 percent upfront cost reduction through an assured buyback after one year.

The company said in a press release that customers enrolled in the Galaxy Forever programme can choose to return, retain, or upgrade their device after 12 months. It also includes a no-questions-asked return option. Customers paying via credit card can return the device for a 50 percent assured buyback or keep it by clearing the remaining amount through another 12 months of no-cost EMIs.

Those opting for Samsung Finance+ can return the device and upgrade to a new Galaxy flagship, or retain it by paying the remaining 50 percent in the 13th month, Samsung added.
