Consumers looking for lower-priced premium smartphones now have a new option as Samsung has introduced its Certified Re-Newed programme in India. The initiative brings refurbished Galaxy smartphones, including flagship and mid-range models, at reduced prices while offering the same 1-year warranty available with new devices.
The programme currently includes Certified Re-Newed versions of the Galaxy S25 series and Galaxy A series smartphones. These refurbished devices are available through Samsung’s official website and the Samsung Shop app.
Under the new programme, the Certified Re-Newed Galaxy S25 Ultra with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage is priced at ₹97,499, compared to its original launch price of ₹1,29,999.
The refurbished Galaxy S25 with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage is listed at ₹58,749, while the new model is priced at ₹62,999.
Samsung is also offering the refurbished Galaxy A56 with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage for ₹32,749 instead of ₹44,999.
Meanwhile, the Galaxy A36 with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage is available for ₹23,249, compared to the original price of ₹32,999.
According to Samsung, all smartphones under the Certified Re-Newed programme go through an in-house refurbishment process. This includes detailed inspections, functional testing and software validation before the devices are resold.
The company stated that only original Samsung parts are used during restoration. The refurbished devices are packed in new boxes and include accessories such as a quick start guide, data cable and ejector pin.
Samsung also said all user data is completely removed before resale. Every Certified Re-Newed smartphone comes with the latest software updates and remains unlocked for use with any compatible mobile carrier.
The programme is aimed at offering more affordable Galaxy devices to consumers while maintaining quality and after-sales support standards.
