The 2023 Motorola Razr Plus is the perfect phone for those who want a very budget-friendly flip phone that still has a lot of power, especially since it has a whopping $500 discount on it. In fact, our Mobile Editor Joe Maring said, “The Motorola Razr Plus is the best flip phone foldable I’ve ever used. Between the unmatched cover screen, stunning hardware, and powerful specs, there’s just so much to like.”

Apple iPhone SE 3 (Renewed) — from $190

If you’d like a budget option from Apple, then the Apple iPhone SE 3 is really the way to go, although all that’s available is an Amazon Renewed model. It comes with a 4.7-inch Retina HD display, a 12MP rear camera, and the A15 Bionic chip, the latter of which is one of the most powerful chips that Apple currently offers.

Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra — $950 $1,300 27% off

If you’re really craving a big chunky screen and a pen experience, then the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra can give you both, and with a $850 discount, it’s well worth considering. When our senior mobile writer Andy Boxall got his hands on it, he said, “The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is one of the most complete, most capable, and most creatively versatile smartphones we’ve ever used.”

OnePlus Open — $1,314 $1,700 23% off

If you’re looking for a more budget-friendly foldable, this OnePlus Open is a great option. We even felt in our review that “The OnePlus Open is a great new foldable, and it costs less than you’d expect.” In fact, you can currently get a whopping $386 discount on it, which brings it down to $1,200, which is a lot cheaper than most foldables out there.

 

How to choose a phone on Cyber Week

While there are a lot of phones out there to pick from, what it really comes down to is your specific use-case scenario. For example, if you’re the type of person who really loves photography, then you may want to get yourself a camera phone such as the Samsung S24 Ultra or the OnePlus 12. On the other hand, if you’re looking for budget options, then what you’ll mostly want to focus on is having a good amount of RAM, either 3GB or 4GBs, and a relatively good amount of storage or a phone that has the option to use a MicroSD card.

Besides that, there are also things to consider, such as waterproofing and how rugged a phone is, depending on how much time you spend outside. It’s not something to worry about seriously, especially since most modern phones tend to have some kind of waterproofing and dustproofing, but it’s worth keeping in mind for foldable phones that aren’t as rugged. Finally, the ecosystem tends to be important for most people, and while Android is pretty widespread, Google and Samsung have their own ecosystems set up, so if you’re in one of the two, you might want to go for the phone in that specific system.

How we chose these phone Cyber Week deals

Given that there are so many smartphones out there, it’s probably no surprise that there are always dozens and dozens of ongoing deals to pick from. Not only that, but there are both locked and unlocked deals as well, so it can sometimes be hard to find the best deals possible. That said, we rely on our experience as reviewers and deal hunters to not only find the best deals but also focus on unlocked deals so that you don’t have to be tied to a carrier when purchasing anything.

While it’s true that you may sometimes find better carrier deals, at the end of the day, it’s about giving you as many options as possible. That way, you aren’t only getting the best bang for your buck but also the best phone for your needs.

    Last chance to pre-order the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra with this deal
    The screen on the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra.

    Samsung's latest generation of flagship smartphones are almost here, but you've still got time to take advantage of Samsung Galaxy deals for pre-orders of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. The unlocked 512GB model is available for $1,300 instead of $1,420, for a free storage upgrade from 256GB that's being sold at the same price, and you'll get additional Samsung Credit of $80. You also have the chance of instant trade-in credit of up to $900, so there's a chance of technically just having to pay $320 for this fantastic mobile device. You need to hurry though, as pre-orders are closing in less than two days!

    Why you should buy the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra
    The Samsung Galaxy S25 series has already broken records with massive pre-orders, and the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is the model that's drawing the most interest. It's powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen Elite for Galaxy with 12GB of RAM for extremely smooth performance, and its 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X screen has QHD+ resolution and an up to 120Hz refresh rate. Also, take a look at this camera setup: a 200MP primary camera with optical image stabilization, a 50MP wide-angle camera, a 50MP periscope telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom, a 10mp telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom, and 100x space zoom.

    As the world waits for the official release of Samsung's next generation of flagship smartphones, it's no surprise that the best phone deals for Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus preorders are from Samsung itself. Originally priced at $1,000 for the 256GB model and at $1,120 for the 512GB model, you can get up to $700 off if you trade in an eligible device. Buying the 256GB model also comes with $100 of Samsung Credit, while the 512GB model is currently $100 off. That means you'll technically pay as low as $200 for the 256GB version and $320 for the 512GB version. Those prices are extremely hard to beat.

    Why you should preorder the Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus
    The Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus, which was announced at Samsung Unpacked 2025 and is slated to launch on February 7, is the middle option in the brand's new lineup of smartphones between the Samsung Galaxy S25 and Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. The differences between the Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus versus Samsung Galaxy S25 are more than just their sizes -- the Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus has a 6.7-inch QHD+ AMOLED display with 1440 x 3120 resolution and 513 ppi, while the Samsung Galaxy S25 has a 6.2-inch FHD+ AMOLED display at 1080 x 2340 pixel resolution and 416 pixels per inch. The Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus also has base storage of 256GB, double that of 128GB for the Samsung Galaxy S25, with the former also sporting a 4,900 mAh battery with up to 45W charging speed compared to the latter's 4,000 mAh battery with up to 25W charging speed.
