Powered by the One UI 5.1 (based on Android 13) operating system and Snapdragon Qualcomm 8 Gen 2 CPU, the Flip 5 offers blistering-fast performance and gorgeous visuals across two impressive displays. The main screen is a 6.7-inch FHD+ 120Hz AMOLED Infinity Flex Display, while the cover panel is a 3.4-inch version of the same AMOLED you’ll spend most of your time staring at.

Available in Graphite, Mint, and Lavender colors, each shell option is equipped with 256GB of internal storage (which you can expand). Additional features include Samsung’s AI-powered Live Translate function, an excellent camera system, IPX8 water resistance, and over 30 hours of battery life.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 features one of the more unique smartphone designs we’ve seen in a while. Like the Galaxy Flip 5, the Fold 5 is powered by Samsung’s One UI 5.1 (based on Android 13) OS and Snapdragon Qualcomm 8 Gen 2 CPU. The promo only applies to the 256GB unlocked version of the phone, but there are 512GB and 1TB options too.

Thanks to some dual-screen action like you’ve never seen before, the Fold 5 delivers some of the most impressive smartphone visuals on the market. The main screen is a 7.6-inch AMOLED Infinity Flex Display that pushes a max refresh rate of 120Hz, while the cover panel is a 6.2-inch AMOLED with the same frame rate capabilities. 

Whether you plan on using your phone for multi-task web browsing and apps, or simply want an arresting and responsive display to enjoy HD movies, shows, and mobile gaming on, the Fold 5 can handle anything you throw its way. Of course, battery life is one of the most important factors of any phone; but rest assured, you should get close to 11 hours on a full charge. 

We’re not sure how long these two great Samsung deals are going to last, so it’s best to take advantage before it’s too late! And while you’re at it, you should have a gander at some of the other foldable phone deals we’ve dug up this week!

This is the best Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra pre-order deal
The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra's Quick Settings screen.

Samsung's newest entry in the S line just dropped this week, and it already has some great phone deals. Today, you can pre-order the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra and enjoy some considerable discounts. In typical Samsung style, there are a ton of benefits to reap here. There’s a considerable $120 discount on the 512GB variety of the phone, but you also gain $80 in Samsung credit to use on anything else on the site. It gets better: there’s up to $900 instant trade-in credit too depending on the phone you’re trading in, meaning the phone could cost as little as $400 once you factor in the discount and credit on the usual price of $1,420. Want to learn more about the phone? Let’s take a look.

Why you should buy the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra
Surprisingly, the Samsung Galaxy S range is slipping down the rankings of the best phones or best Android phones, but it’s still a much loved range. While we don’t have a full review of the latest model just yet, we do have a great comparison of Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra and iPhone 16 Pro Max, so you know which flagship model to consider.

Best Samsung Galaxy S25 pre-order deals: Secure the phone today, for less
A person holding the Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus.

If you're a fan of the Samsung S24 lineup of phones, then you'll be happy to know that Samsung has just announced its latest lineup of S25 phones, and you can pre-order them already. There have been quite a few upgrades this generation, although one of the big talking points this year revolved around AI and the effort Samsung has put into integrating it into their phones. You can check out more information on our Samsung Unpacked 2025 event roundup for a breakdown of what Samsung talked about, and if you're ready to pre-order, we've collected all the best pre-order deals for you below.
Best S25 deals from Samsung
You can pre-order the Samsung S25 directly from Samsung, and while it doesn't have a direct discount, you can get up to $500 in trade-in credit, which brings it down to $300, and you can also get another $50 in Samsung Credit which will bring it down to just $250. You can also snag the S25, which does have $100 in direct savings that brings the price down to $1,020 from $1,120, plus you can trade-in and get up to another $700 in credit. Finally, you can snag yourself a pre-order for the Samsung S25 Plus with a $120 direct discount which brings it down to $1,300, and there is even another $900 trade-in credit you can get depending on the device you trade in.
There is also a full break-down of the Samsung pre-order deals on the Samsung S25, as well more information on the Samsung S25 Ultra pre-order deals from Samsung.

Best S25 deals from Amazon
One of the most clearcut deals is from Amazon on the S25, which gives you a direct $100 discount, bringing it down to just $800, rather than the usual $900. That's an 11% discount on the 128GB version of the S25, which is pretty substantial given that it's still in pre-order. Unfortunately, Amazon isn't offering any deals on the S25 Plus or the S25 Ultra, but we'll keep an eye out and update this page when and if we see any deals on them.

The Samsung Galaxy A14 is on sale for just $40, but with a catch
Samsung Galaxy A14 5G lock screen

If you need a new phone but you're on a tight budget, you probably didn't think to look at Samsung Galaxy deals, as these include the brand's flagship smartphones. However, there are also some extremely affordable options like the Samsung Galaxy A14. The smartphone is on sale for only $40, following a $60 discount on its original price of $100, but it's locked to a Straight Talk prepaid plan. If you're fine with that restriction, then you better hurry as we're not sure how much time is remaining on this bargain.

Why you should buy the Samsung Galaxy A14
The Samsung Galaxy A14 scored 4 out of 5 stars in our review, which is surprisingly high for an entry-level smartphone. It "offers a lot of bang for your buck" as a member of Samsung's affordable Galaxy A-Series, and it all begins with the first thing that you'll notice -- a 6.6-inch LCD touchscreen with 1080p resolution. You shouldn't expect it to challenge the display of a flagship model like the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, but it's still a pretty nice screen for browsing social media, playing mobile games, and watching streaming shows.
