Samsung fans and prospective customers in the United States now have more ways to buy a Certified Re-Newed Galaxy phone for less cash. This week, the company announced that its Certified Re-Newed program has expanded beyond the official Samsung online shop and is now accessible on Amazon in the USA.

The service debuts on Amazon with 14 Certified Re-Newed Galaxy smartphone offers. More specifically, 7 Galaxy phone models in different memory and color configurations are now available as Certified Re-Newed from Amazon:

Samsung says prices for Certified Re-Newed Galaxy phones on Amazon start at $489, excluding taxes and fees.

Buyers from Amazon will benefit from the usual perks, save for one. Certified Re-newed Galaxy phones are serviced by Samsung specialists and repaired with 100% genuine parts.

Samsung Certified Re-Newed Galaxy phones must pass intensive testing at 147 quality checkpoints and have brand-new batteries. They are repackaged using 100% recyclable material.

One thing you won't benefit from if you decide to buy your Certified Re-Newed Galaxy smartphone from Amazon instead of Samsung's online shop is the trade-in program.

While Amazon has a trade-in program, it doesn't extend to Samsung Certified Re-Newed phones. If you want to buy a used Samsung phone for even less cash through a trade-in, you'll have to do it through Samsung's online shop instead of Amazon.
