Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra and Galaxy S26 Plus

While mobile industry researchers and analysts continue to predict major smartphone sales declines for the next few quarters (as well as the current one) across many (if not all) of the world's biggest markets, I'm here to try my best to prevent that from happening by recommending you the greatest tech deals and steals available today.

Those include very generous discounts offered by retailers like Amazon and device manufacturers like Samsung and Motorola on some of the best phones money can buy in 2026, but also a number of value-packed tablets and three of the greatest smartwatches in the world right now. But first things first...

These are this week's top three mobile tech deals

$235 off (18%)

It's not the most popular member of the Galaxy S26 family, but at an unprecedented $235 discount in a 512GB storage variant with no special requirements, this 6.7-inch Plus powerhouse is pretty much impossible to turn down for hardcore Samsung fans... who can't afford the Galaxy S26 Ultra or Z Fold 7.

$200 off (15%)

Probably the best (non-foldable) Android phone in the world is somehow still available directly from its manufacturer's official US e-store at both a hefty $200 discount and with $100 instant Samsung Credit included. The credit can be used for a variety of accessories to sweeten an already amazing S26 Ultra deal.

$420 off (21%)

Probably the best book-style foldable available in the US right now is on sale at an irresistible $420 discount in a 256GB storage variant and three different color options. But you may not have a lot of time at your disposal to take advantage of this phenomenal new Amazon deal.

And they're all about Samsung. Before you even go there, that was not intentional on my part, I just couldn't resist ranking the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Galaxy S26 Ultra, and Galaxy S26 Plus ahead of all other discounted handsets this week.

These three powerhouses are simply that good, packing state-of-the-art processors into gorgeous designs and fetching hard-to-beat prices today. Choosing between the S26+ and S26 Ultra may have become more difficult than ever, as the slightly smaller, cheaper, and humbler model is more substantially marked down (with more storage), while its big brother includes some handy free Samsung Store credit at a heavily reduced price of its own.

And then you've got the Z Fold 7, which has a very clear and distinct target audience, and although a Z Fold 8 is right around the corner, the appeal of last year's book-style Samsung super-flagship remains intact... at a huge $420 discount.

Want more smartphone bargains? Here are so many more!

$75 off (17%)

One of Samsung's latest mid-range handsets is already marked down by $75... from an arguably excessive list price of $449.99 in a 128GB storage variant and three "Awesome" color options.

Buy at Amazon

$100 off (20%)

Despite its somewhat advanced age, you can't argue with the Pixel 9a's appeal at a $100 discount in a 128GB storage variant and a single love-it-or-hate-it Peony colorway. After all, the Pixel 10a is not much better and is currently significantly costlier, so what's a cash-strapped Android purist to do but settle for the older model?

Buy at Amazon

$350 off (44%)

With a compact 6.3-inch screen, premium build quality, exceptional cameras (for its price), and stellar long-term software support, the 2024-released Pixel 9 can still be a very smart buy for a hardcore Google fan on a tight budget at a rare $350 discount.

Buy at Amazon

$135 off (19%)

If you can't afford Motorola's brand-new Razr (2026), it's probably a good idea to go for the 2025 edition right now in a Pantone Spring Bud or Pantone Parfait Pink colorway. Clearly, Amazon won't sell this gorgeous flip phone at a $135 discount for long, and the handset could be discontinued soon to leave the spotlight to its sequel.

Buy at Amazon

$200 off (25%)

The "vanilla" 6.3-inch Pixel 10 is the only member of its family to be sold at a substantial discount this week by Amazon. And if you hurry, you can choose from four different colors at the exact same heavily reduced price.

Buy at Amazon

$599 ⁹⁹

$699 ⁹⁹

$100 off (14%)

What's better than both the Razr (2025) and Razr (2026)? How about a special football-themed edition of last year's affordable foldable marked down by $100 and sold alongside a complimentary Moto Watch, Moto Buds Loop, and Moto Tag?

Buy at Motorola

$699 ⁹⁹

$799 ⁹⁹

$100 off (13%)

The OnePlus 15R can be great for Android power users on tight budgets, especially when the 512GB storage variant is on sale at the price of a 256GB configuration. The handset's premium specs include a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 SoC, 12GB RAM, and a 7,400mAh battery equipped with 80W charging support.

Buy at OnePlus

$600 off (46%)

The value equation of last year's Razr Ultra flagship is somehow heightened by the arrival of a 2026 edition with modest upgrades and a way higher price point. The Razr Ultra (2025) is no longer marked down by its manufacturer, but Amazon still amazingly sells it at $600 off with 512GB storage.

Buy at Amazon

$799 ⁹⁹

The newest budget-friendly member of Motorola's Razr family of Galaxy Z Flip-rivaling foldables is not quite as affordable as its predecessor, but at least it comes with a complimentary pair of Moto Buds 2 Plus for early adopters.

Pre-order at Motorola

$100 off (11%)

The base S26 is obviously not better than the S26 Plus or S26 Ultra, but for a presumably limited time, it can be a smarter buy at a cool $100 discount, especially if you happen to like compact phones (by 2026 standards).

Buy at Amazon

$799 ⁹⁹

$899 ⁹⁹

$100 off (11%)

The latest and greatest OnePlus flagship comes with a gorgeous screen, super-powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC, massive 7,300mAh battery, blazing fast 120W charging, and... a surprisingly reasonable price, especially at a new $100 discount in a 256GB storage variant with the EXTRA100 coupon code.

$200 off (18%)

If you're not willing to wait a couple more months for the Galaxy Z Flip 8 or don't expect to be able to afford Samsung's next-gen clamshell, the Z Flip 7 is an absolute must-buy at a $200 discount right now.

Buy at Amazon

It's not Black Friday, Prime Day, or any other special offer day, but this incredibly lengthy list of smartphone deals and steals will make you feel like Christmas is coming soon. Good thing that's not actually true and you don't have to buy any gifts for your distant cousins, uncles, and annoying work "friends", which means that you can get the Pixel 9, Pixel 9a, or Motorola Razr (2025) for yourself.

Of course, I'd personally opt for the special Razr FIFA World Cup 26 Edition, and not just because I'm super-excited about next month's footballing spectacle in the US, Canada, and Mexico. If you're more into foldables than sports, you might want to consider picking up the Razr Ultra (2025) at its latest insane Amazon discount in a 512GB storage variant... before the device is inevitably discontinued to allow its (overpriced) sequel to capture the limelight.

The non-Ultra Razr (2026) is... frankly not that appealing at its list price with a complimentary pair of wireless earbuds included, while the OnePlus 15 and OnePlus 15R might be my (non-foldable) favorites in this category at $100 discounts likely to go away soon.

What do you say about an ultra-affordable tablet?

$199 ⁹⁹

$289 ⁹⁹

$90 off (31%)

The most affordable product in this category this week comes with an impressive 8GB RAM/128GB storage combination, as well as a remarkably sharp 11-inch screen and a super-powerful quad speaker system at a truly unbeatable price after a hot new $90 markdown.

Buy at Lenovo

$40 off (16%)

For a budget-friendly Samsung tablet, the Galaxy Tab A11 Plus is, well, as large as its name suggests, but also quite powerful, extremely thin, and sold with an extended two-year warranty by Amazon at a $40 discount this week.

Buy at Amazon

$279 ⁹⁹

$419 ⁹⁹

$140 off (33%)

If the Idea Tab is too modest for you, the Idea Tab Pro... could make you feel like a pro user with more screen real estate, more processing power, and a very convenient Lenovo Tab Pen Plus included in a very reasonable price.

$299 ⁹⁹

$399 ⁹⁹

$100 off (25%)

Even though it's also very affordable, the OnePlus Pad Go 2 is somehow the most expensive tablet in our latest weekly deals roundup, even after a cool $100 discount. Its value is further enhanced by a free accessory of your choice between a stylus and a folio case.

Buy at OnePlus

Whether you say "yes" or "heck yeah", your choice between these four ultra-bargains is likely to be made quite hard by their latest discounts. But it's the good kind of hard, and I actually believe whatever you end up opting for, you'll be more than satisfied with your purchase this summer.

The Lenovo Idea Tab and Idea Tab Pro are absolute value champions, the Galaxy Tab A11 Plus is virtually guaranteed to provide the best long-term software support of the bunch, and last but not least, the OnePlus Pad Go 2 is reasonably powerful and extremely good-looking, which could make it the greatest mid-range tablet available today.

A deeply discounted smartwatch also goes great with everything else

$229 ⁹⁹

$299 ⁹⁹

$70 off (23%)

Do you have a relatively small wrist, an Android phone, and no clear allegiance to a brand like Samsung or Google? Then this small OnePlus Watch 3 is probably your best option this week at a $30 discount with either a charging base or a SuperVOOC Type-A to Type-C cable included at no extra cost.

Buy at OnePlus

$100 off (25%)

Probably the best iPhone-compatible smartwatch (with a non-rugged design) is once again sold at a $100 discount, this time with a Rose Gold aluminum case only and a Light Blush sport band. The deal has become less of a deal and more of a regular occurrence, but that doesn't mean you should ignore it.

Buy at Amazon

$130 off (26%)

One of the most elegant smartwatches around is massively discounted in both black and white colors with an extended two-year warranty included. The Galaxy Watch 8 Classic rocks an always handy rotating bezel and all of the best health monitoring tools in the world.

Buy at Amazon

If you've gotten this far and still have a little money left in your bank account, you'll probably want to pair your new Galaxy S26 Plus or S26 Ultra with a fancy Galaxy Watch 8 Classic at a killer price. Or perhaps get a 43mm OnePlus Watch 3 for your OnePlus 15 or 15R.

Finally, the Apple Watch Series 11 is perfect for new and existing iPhone owners, and for the umpteenth time in recent months, it's marked down by a cool $100... that I don't think will be eclipsed anytime soon. Possibly, not until the Apple Watch Series 12 comes out. Maybe even after that improved product is released in the fall.

$20 /mo

$25

$5 off (20%)

Offer Ends 6.1.2026 at 11.59pm ET. New members get $5/mo off the $25/mg Visible plan, $35/mo Visible+ plan, or $45/mo Visible+ Pro plan for the first 12 months. Promo code FRESHSTART required at checkout.
