We’ve done all the legwork and put together a list of the top discounts available right now on Android phones — many of which are models mentioned in our guide to the best Android phones in 2023. This way, you can feel confident knowing that not only are you getting a good price, but a good phone too.
Best Android phone deals
Now is a great time to be shopping for a new smartphone, as there are more than enough deals to go around. Several of our favorite handsets are currently being discounted, including our top picks, the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro. There are also great options for every budget, such as the Pixel 7a for just $350, and the Galaxy S24 Ultra (512GB) for $1,070. That’s $350 in instant savings on Samsung’s top-of-the-line flagship.
Google Pixel 8 Pro
Google, Best Buy, and others are currently discounting the Google Pixel 8 Pro by $200. This is a great deal on a flagship handset that happens to be the top pick in our buyer’s guide to the best Android phones.
Google Pixel 8
The Google Pixel 8 is missing some features you’ll find in the 8 Pro, but it’s still a great handset in its own right. We like it for its pocket-friendly size, excellent battery life, and price tag. Right now, you can pick up the Pixel 8 for just $550.
Google Pixel 7 Pro
If you want a flagship Pixel phone and don’t mind going with a previous gen model, this Pixel 7 Pro deal is very solid. You get all the performance and camera quality of a high-end Pixel handset for just $480.
Google Pixel 7a
The Pixel 7a continues to be a solid, all-around mid-range device that offers a good balance of size, performance, and camera quality. We especially like it at its current sale price of $350, which is one of the best deals we’ve seen on it to date.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5
Save $500 with Open-Box offer
It’s facing growing competition, but the Galaxy Z Fold 5 is still one of our favorite foldables. Best Buy currently has it at a $100 discount via its Activate Today program, but the real deal can be found in its Open-Box offerings. As of our latest update, the retailer has ‘Excellent’ Fold 5s, so essentially brand new, for just $1,300 with free shipping.
Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra
Save $350 with same-day activation
Best Buy right now has the S24 Ultra 512GB model on sale for just $1070 with same-day activation. That’s $350 in instant savings. For those who don’t want go the Activate Today route, you can still save $250 and just buy the phone outright from the retailer.
OnePlus Open
Save $100 with same-day activation
The OnePlus Open is our current top foldable pick thanks to its lightweight design, impressive spec sheet, and triple camera setup. It’s typically one of the more expensive smartphones on the market, but right now you can get a $400 discount via Best Buy’s Activate Today program.
Motorola Razr+ (2023)
The Razr+ is a fun alternative to Samsung’s foldables, and it’s considerably cheaper. It has a 6.9-inch internal display, and a 3.6-inch display that essentially allows you to do anything you want without needing to open the phone. If you’re going to buy one, this is the price to do it at—$700, which makes for a $300 savings.
