The top 5 Prime Day smartphone deals worth checking out

Prime Day is here again, and there are loads of deals covering a variety of categories. From tablets and PCs to TVs and audio, there’s no shortage of deals to go around.

However, smartphones are our bread and butter, and there are plenty of notable discounts in this regard. So we’ve chosen the top five Prime Day smartphone deals worth checking out.

Google Pixel 6 Pro

One of the best deals on the list has to be Google’s Pixel 6 Pro, retailing for $699 ($200 off the original price). There’s a lot to like about the Pro device, such as the capable Tensor chipset, flexible rear cameras, and crowd-pleasing camera features (e.g. Magic Eraser, motion mode). It also gains three years of OS updates and five years of security patches.

Last year’s OnePlus flagships are still great devices, and the standard model is definitely worth a look on Prime Day. The device is available for $499.99, which puts it in mid-range territory. Expect a beefy Snapdragon 888 chipset, 65W wired charging, wireless charging support, and a great rear camera setup. 

This isn’t the best OnePlus flagship ever released, owing to a disappointing ultrawide camera and lack of an IP rating for unlocked devices. However, it’s certainly a more palatable purchase at $799 ($100 off). You’re still getting a lot of phone though, such as flagship silicon, a 5,000mAh battery, 65W wired charging, fast wireless charging, and a great QHD+ screen.

Samsung’s latest Plus phone definitely makes the list of top Prime Day smartphone deals, coming in at its lowest price ever on Amazon. Expect to pay $699.99 for the S22 Plus, which is $300 off the launch price and cheaper than the standard S22 at launch. It packs a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor, a 4,500mAh battery, IP68 rating, and a versatile rear camera setup. You’re also getting four OS updates and up to five years of security updates.

Now is a good time to get on the foldable bandwagon, as the Galaxy Z Flip 3 has hit its lowest price ever on Prime Day. For $699.99 ($300 off), you get a clamshell foldable phone with a 6.7-inch folding screen and a tiny secondary display on the outside. Otherwise, you’re also getting software to take advantage of the form factor as well as water resistance.
