Ahead of this week's Galaxy S23 launch, Woot has a large selection of refurbished Samsung phones on sale starting as low as $116. There are plenty of powerful devices to choose from, including the base Galaxy S22 model from Samsung's current flagship lineup, along with the Galaxy Note 20. These deals are only live through Feb. 11, while supplies last, so we'd recommend placing your order soon if there's a specific phone you're hoping to grab during this sale.

If you've shopped for a new phone lately, you'll have seen how steep the prices can be. If you don't want to shell out the cash for the latest model, there are other options that can save you hundreds. Refurbished devices are much cheaper than buying something new.

There are many models available in this sale at a variety of prices. If you're looking for a phone from the S22 lineup, Samsung's latest flagship models, which hit shelves earlier this year, you can get the base S22 flagship with 128GB of storage and a 6.1-inch AMOLED display for $421.

It is also a great chance to snag the now-discontinued Galaxy Note 20, which offers a large 6.7-inch AMOLED display, 128GB of storage and a powerful 64-megapixel camera that can capture 8K video footage, starting at just $251. Or splurge for the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, with a 6.9-inch screen, from just at $371

You can also shop all models of 2021's Galaxy S21 on sale right now. The base model S21 is on sale for as low as $230, which gives you a 6.2-inch display and 128GB of storage. The 256GB version is available for $270. Or you can upgrade to the S21 Plus, which features a 6.7-inch screen, either 128GB or 256GB of storage and is on sale starting at $296 right now. And for an even larger 6.8-inch screen, you can upgrade to the 128GB model of the S21 Ultra for $390

If you're looking to spend less and just need to replace your phone without insisting on the latest specs, check out the Galaxy A71. It's available for $164 for the unlocked model. And for basic texting and calling, the absolute most affordable model you'll find at this sale is the Galaxy S9, which you can grab for just $116 right now. The 2019 S10 lineup is also available starting at $166, which are solid budget-friendly options for the average user. However, when you grab an older device like these, you may not be able to get future software updates, so keep that in mind as you shop.

There are lots of other Samsung phones available, so be sure and shop the entire sale selection to find the right fit for you. Keep in mind that each phone has been rated "S&D," or scratch and dent, which indicates that while all phones have undergone testing and are in full working condition, they do show moderate wear and tear and have some cosmetic blemishes. But if dings and scrapes don't bother you, this is an excellent opportunity to upgrade your phone on a tight budget. Your purchase is also backed by a 90-day Woot limited warranty, just in case.
