Weekly deals roundup: Galaxy S26 Ultra with $500 savings, incredible Galaxy S26+ discount, and more
I almost cannot believe what an epic list of week-ending mobile tech deals I've been able to put together so close to Amazon's Prime Day 2026 extravaganza.

Should you wait until Amazon kicks off the Prime Day 2026 festivities on June 23 before buying your next smartphone, tablet, smartwatch, or wireless earbuds? Not necessarily, especially if you're not a Prime member and have no intention of getting such a subscription anytime soon just to potentially save... as much as you can currently save without any strings attached on popular devices like the Galaxy S26 Ultra, AirPods Pro 3, or Galaxy Tab S11.
That's right, a surprisingly large number of the best phones, tablets, wearables, and headphones money can buy in the US are significantly cheaper than usual already, and although you can obviously never know what the future holds in store, some of these phenomenal new deals available at the likes of Amazon and Samsung look pretty much impossible to beat.
This week's top three offers are positively dreamy
Don't pinch me, please, as I have no intention of waking up if this is indeed a dream. I'd rather continue to drool at the thought of purchasing the Galaxy S26 Plus for over $400 less than usual or saving exactly $400 on the unbeatable Galaxy S26 Ultra with (almost) no strings attached while also getting a free protective case or deeply discounted wireless earbuds alongside probably the best Android phone in the world.
The AirPods Pro 3, meanwhile, have gone $50 off their list price so many times over the last few months that I was just about ready to give up my hopes of ever seeing a heftier discount offered by a retailer like Amazon. But surprise, surprise, said discount has finally arrived, and it doesn't require a Prime membership... or anything else of that sort.
At least some of these other smartphone deals are also to die for
What can I say about Amazon's latest Galaxy Z Fold 7 promotion other than "wow"? Of course, that word doesn't begin to describe the incredible appeal of last year's Motorola Razr Ultra clamshell at $700 (!!!) off its list price with 1TB internal storage space and a pair of premium noise-canceling earbuds included at no extra cost.
Compared to those two offers, the rather repetitive Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL, OnePlus 15R, and Samsung Galaxy A37 5G discounts are perhaps considerably less awe-inspiring, but for the right buyer, each and every one of these handsets can represent the smartest possible purchase.
The same goes for the compact Galaxy S26, which is however still a tad overpriced even after its latest and greatest discount, while the Motorola Edge (2026) has somehow managed to go from a guaranteed flop in the making to an absolute must-buy for the brand's cash-strapped fans in just a little over a week... with the right device to trade in.

I'm not going to act like I don't have a favorite in this section of my latest weekly deals roundup, as I don't think I'd be able to resist the 11-inch Galaxy Tab S11 at its newest discount if I were looking for a new tablet this summer.
Of course, the Tab S11 Ultra is even better, but also significantly costlier and not exactly easy to maneuver, so my second favorite model is probably the Lenovo Yoga Tab Plus with a keyboard and stylus included in its heavily reduced price.
If you're on a tight budget, you'll want to get the OnePlus Pad Go 2 as soon as possible, although the "regular" Lenovo Yoga Tab and Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE Plus are not that expensive anymore, and they're pretty darn great. The new gaming-centric Legion Tab Gen 5 is also amazing, but I feel like Lenovo can and probably will do better than a $150 discount relatively soon.
What a breathtaking collection of smartwatch bargains!
The only reason the Galaxy Watch 8 and Galaxy Watch 8 Classic didn't crack this week's top three deals category is, well, the limited number of spots that the S26 Ultra and S26 Plus simply had to occupy.
Otherwise, you're truly looking at two mind-blowing offers here that Samsung and Amazon will almost certainly not be able to beat anytime soon (if ever). The Galaxy Watch Ultra (2025) and Apple Watch Series 10 are nowhere near as appealing right now for bargain hunters, but because their target audiences are very different from folks who would consider buying the Galaxy Watch 8 and Watch 8 Classic, I've decided to include and recommend all four products as smart buys.
And here are three great headphones deals to make your weekend extra-cheerful!
Whether you're an iPhone or Android user, the Beats Studio Buds+ are probably the best affordable earbuds you can get today, although if you're still trying to get the perfect summer body, the Powerbeats Pro 2 might be a smarter purchase, as they're much better suited for gym use.
The AirPods Max 2, meanwhile, need no introduction, following in the footsteps of Apple's first-ever over-ear headphones to battle the likes of the Sony WH-1000XM6, which is obviously a little easier to do at a $50 discount.
