Hello? Yes, I’d Like To Hear More About the Best Early Black Friday Smartphone Deals

Black Friday is inching closer, but you don’t have to wait that long to get a new smartphone. Why? Because we’re already seeing some of the most impressive deals ever for the best smartphones on the market. From Samsung to Google, from brick phones to flip phones, we’ve found some stellar deals for all makes and models. And this is just the start, check back often heading into November 29 to see what new sales are going down.

Being able to save $350 on the Google Pixel 8 Pro is a good deal on any day of the week, including just ahead of Black Friday. In our review, our expert gave it an “Excellent” rating, praising the AI-assisted photo and video editing capabilities, as well as the excellently bright display. “The Google Pixel 8 Pro puts the power of machine learning and Google Assistant to effective use,” Iyaz Akhtar added.

Since this current price is the best we’ve ever seen for the OnePlus 12, it feels like it’s already Black Friday. In our review of the OnePlus 12, our expert Sarah Lord was impressed with the phone’s display and long battery life, as well as the premium performance. “The OnePlus 12 almost has it all—at a lower price than the competition,” she noted. Given the current price tag, it’s easy to see why this one should be at the top of your list.

Another phone that saw Black Friday coming and dropped to its best price so far is the Samsung Galazy Z Flip 6. This one isn’t just a device to help millennials travel down memory lane, it’s a smartphone with bright screens, quality cameras and a damn good build. In our review, our expert, Iyaz Akhtar, gave it an “Excellent” rating and noted that “the Z Flip 5 is still the best small foldable overall.”

Are you as excited about Black Friday as we are? Great! Because we’ve already dug up a ton of impressive deals!
