It's that time of year again that parents and students dread – it's almost time to head back to school for the new academic year. Ensuring students are well equipped can prove to be stressful, whether you're a parent or heading to uni, but thankfully some retailers have introduced back-to-school deals to help save a bit of cash.

Case in point: Samsung. The South Korean electronics giant has kicked off its back-to-school sale in Australia, featuring a slew of deals across mobile phones, tablets, monitors, TVs and even home appliances. While we don't expect anyone needing a telly to get back to school, getting set up with a new monitor or tablet can be very handy indeed.

As a teacher or a student, you'll also get access to Samsung’s Student Education Store – which you can do so with an edu.au email address directly through the portal, or via Unidays – and that has additional discounts that you can take advantage. I've also included those in the deals below.

Be quick, as these deals won't be around for very long, with most ending on February 4, 2026.

Samsung M8 32-inch 4K smart monitor
Save 30% (AU$300)
Samsung M8 32-inch 4K smart monitor: was AU$999 now AU$699 at Samsung Australia

This 32-inch 4K display includes a clip-on webcam in the box and Samsung’s Smart TV functionality, which could be a suitable all-in-one solution in case you’re shopping for a TV as well. This monitor uses a cheaper VA panel and has a 60Hz refresh rate, so gamers may want to consider the other monitors in this list. For this price however, the extra features and 4K resolution is hard to beat. Be quick, though, as this will only be live until January 21.

Samsung Odyssey G8 32-inch OLED monitor: was AU$2,099 now AU$1,599 at Samsung Australia

This premium 4K gaming monitor from 2024 is a bit overkill for doing schoolwork on, but this superb OLED display with a 240Hz refresh rate will provide a truly premium gaming experience for either PCs or consoles.

Samsung ViewFinity S65TC 34-inch monitor
Save 23% (AU$250)
Samsung ViewFinity S65TC 34-inch monitor: was AU$1,099 now AU$849 at Samsung Australia

For the multitaskers, this ultrawide monitor features Thunderbolt 4 connectivity to provide both 90W charging and data transfer at the same time, as well as a built-in KVM switch to make swapping input devices a breeze. This price point was achieved by using a cheaper VA panel, but a 100Hz refresh rate and AMD Freesync support makes up for it. Like the first two above, this deal ends on January 21.

Samsung Galaxy A56 (128GB)
Save 21% (AU$150)
Samsung Galaxy A56 (128GB): was AU$699 now AU$549 at Samsung Australia

We’ve named the Samsung Galaxy A56 the best budget Samsung Phone for 2025, with its 6.7-inch AMOLED display and 5,000mAh battery enclosed in a glass and metal chassis, trumping the usually plastic-clad phones in this price range. Its Exynos 1580 chipset isn’t the best for demanding mobile games, but at this price it’s hardly a complaint. If you have access to the Student Education Store, the Galaxy A56 is AU$469, or 34% off RRP. This deal will be around for a bit longer, ending on February 2.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Lite Wi-Fi (256 GB)
Save 17% (AU$130)
Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Lite Wi-Fi (256 GB): was AU$749 now AU$619 at Samsung Australia

The Galaxy Tab S10 Lite is Samsung’s way to provide a budget tablet with S-Pen support for note taking, drawing, maths and more. . While it features an older Exynos 1380 chip to achieve this price point, it does give the tablet access to features like DeX to provide a desktop experience when plugged into an external display. Through the Student Education Store, this tablet is AU$584.
