    As usual, Walmart was the place to go for promotions on pre-paid phones. Arguably the hottest offer for iOS fans, which lasted throughout the event, was a $50 price cut on the Straight Talk-locked iPhone 13. The Galaxy A25 was also available locked to Straight Talk. This bad boy was on sale for 10% off its regular price, allowing shoppers to snatch it for $179. 

    The only discount on an unlocked model we came across during the event was a $265 price cut on the Galaxy S24 Ultra

    This October, the Walmart Holiday Deals event officially started on October 8 and continued through October 13. As usual, Walmart+ members got and early access to the deals. This fall, those with a membership could shop some 12 hours before everyone else.

    How do Walmart Prime Day tech deals compare to those offered by Amazon?


    Long story short, they're pretty similar. Walmart usually tries to match the offers available at Amazon. Then again, the seller may go a step further than Amazon, offering even deeper discounts on some products than the largest online merchant.

    Samsung and Motorola. Affordable Motorola phones are usually available with epic discounts during Prime Day at Walmart, as well as at other retailers as well. Models from Google and older iPhones are also likely to be on sale during the event as well.
