Black Friday may technically be over, but there are tons of deals on some of the year’s most popular phones still available today. You’ll find deep discounts on smartphones from Apple, Samsung, Motorola, Nokia and others, on both the individual phone-makers’ websites as well as online retailers like Amazon and Best Buy. In many cases, these cell phone deals are a return to the prices we saw on Prime Day.
If you’re looking to snag a new iPhone, check the Apple Store for the latest discounts. Apple has now permanently cut prices on older models, including the iPhone XR and iPhone 11 (check out our iPhone 12 Black Friday deals roundup too). And Samsung’s website has been discounting its Galaxy line of smartphones all month long, including the Galaxy S20 Ultra, Galaxy Note 20 and Galaxy A71. Scroll down for all the best Black Friday smartphone deals available now and throughout the rest of the holiday shopping season.
Note that prices and availability were accurate at the time of publication, but are subject to change. Make sure to check back often for the latest deal prices, as we’re updating this article on a rolling basis to account for newer, better deals and expired offers.
OnePlus 7T: $300
Save $300
Angela Lang/CNET
B&H isn’t just a store for photography anymore — it has some amazing phone deals too, like this OnePlus 7T. This smartphone has a large 6.55-inch AMOLED display with a 20:9 aspect ratio, which is perfect for taking camera photos. With 128GB of storage and running Android 10, it makes a great gift for someone (or really yourself) this holiday season. Act fast, because this phone is half off through Saturday only.
Galaxy S20 Ultra: $1,200
Save $200
Sarah Tew/CNET
The Galaxy S20 Ultra is Samsung’s most advanced (and expensive) flagship phone, released earlier this year. Its greatest feature may be its camera, with a 108-megapixel sensor, 100x zoom lens and 40-megapixel selfie camera. The phone also has a huge 5,000-mAh battery for extended battery life. Samsung is currently running a $200 discount for the S20, but you’ll save even more with an eligible trade-in.
Galaxy S20 Plus: $1,000
Save $200
Angela Lang/CNET
The midtier S20 Plus has a 6.7-inch screen and supports the fastest 5G speeds, released earlier this year. It also offers excellent camera image quality. The 128GB phone deal is available in cloud blue, cosmic gray and black.
iPhone 11: $599
Save $100 vs. the 2019 price
Andrew Hoyle/CNET
Though it’s not technically part of Black Friday, Apple cut $100 off the price of last year’s iPhone 11, which CNET has called “the best $700 iPhone Apple has ever made.” With the iPhone 12 already on sale, you can now pick up an iPhone 11 for as low as $599. It has fast speeds, improved battery life and excellent cameras, including a Night Mode feature.
iPhone XR: $499
Save $100 vs. the 2019 price
Angela Lang/CNET
The 2018 iPhone XR includes most of the same features as the more expensive iPhone X and XS, including an excellent big screen in a comfortable body, fast performance, Face ID and wireless charging, and a great camera. Again, it’s not a Black Friday deal, but it is an extra $100 off, making it a great less-expensive iPhone option that still gets you a lot of great features.
Samsung Galaxy Note 20: $800
Save $200
Angela Lang/CNET
The Galaxy Note 20, released in August, has several of the same premium features as the pricier Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, including strong battery life. While it can’t quite keep up in terms of screen technology, camera specs, build material and RAM, it’s a solid option — especially for $200 off. You can find the 128GB version of the Note 20 in mystic bronze, mystic green and mystic gray at Samsung.
Samsung Galaxy A71 5G: $500
Save $100
Erika Garcia/CNET
Samsung’s Galaxy A71 5G phone first went on sale this summer, with a 6.7-inch FHD Plus Super AMOLED Plus Infinity-O display, quad-camera array with a 64-megapixel main lens, and 25-watt fast charging. It has 128GB of internal storage, 6GB of RAM, 4,500-mAh batteries and onscreen optical fingerprint sensors. It also comes with microSD slots, letting you add up to 1TB of additional storage. It’s one of the least expensive 5G phones on the market in the US, especially with this discount.
Motorola Razr 5G: $1,000
Save $400
Angela Lang/CNET
The much-anticipated 2020 Motorola Razr marked the return of the flip phone, along with new cameras, support for 5G and useful enhancements to the external quick view display. Not to mention that it folds down to conveniently fit in your pocket. (Note that you can get bigger Razr 5G discounts with trade-ins and line activations from wireless providers, too.)
Moto G Stylus: $200
Save $100
Sarah Tew
The Moto G Stylus is also the same as the Moto G Power at its core, with the same gigantic 5,000-mAh battery and 64GB of storage, along with a 6.4-inch display and triple-rear camera array. But the stylus adds a level of precision that makes navigating the phone more efficient.
Galaxy S20: $850
Save $150
Angela Lang/CNET
Of Samsung’s Galaxy S20 5G phones, the S20 is the smallest and cheapest — and our reviewer’s favorite. It’s just as stuffed with top-shelf features as the Galaxy S20 Plus and S20 Ultra, from its tack-sharp screen to advanced camera capabilities. Apart from screen and body size, there aren’t many big differences between the three phones. You can get the 128GB phone in cloud pink, cloud blue or cosmic gray for $850 at Samsung.
Samsung Galaxy A51: $325
Save $75
Sarah Tew/CNET
The LTE version of Samsung’s budget Galaxy A51 went on sale in the spring, and includes a 4,000-mAh battery, 128GB of storage, 4GB of RAM and expandable storage up to 512GB. During Best Buy’s sale, you’ll find the A51 in black, blue and white.
Motorola One Zoom: $320 (Update: Low stock)
Save $130
Oscar Gutierrez/CNET
The Motorola One Zoom is a midpriced phone with great value and a smooth matte finish, so you won’t get fingerprints all over the back. It also has four high-quality cameras on the back (and the one on the front) and a large battery for up to two days of charge.
Moto G7 Power: $130
Save $120
Sarah Tew/CNET
The Moto G7 Power is a 2019 member of the Motorola G budget phone family, offering a wallet-friendly price, several premium features and a gigantic battery (the same size as the one found in Samsung’s Galaxy S20 Ultra). The 2020 Moto G Power — that’s G, not G7 — is faster and newer, but it currently costs $50 more than this model (keep scrolling to find that deal). If you’re on a budget and looking for a phone with superstrong battery life, the Moto G7 Power is worthy of consideration. You can find it on sale at Best Buy unlocked for $130 for the 32GB version. (You can also find it for $80 if you activate it today.)
Moto G Power and Moto G Fast: $180
Save $70
Sarah Tew/CNET
Two more Motorola phones have gotten nice price drops at Best Buy.
The 2020 Moto G Power features a wallet-friendly price, a gigantic 5,000-mAh battery and 64GB of storage, along with a 6.4-inch display and triple-rear camera array. Motorola promises that the phone will last up to three days of regular use on a single charge, and in our testing, it’s held up so far. It’s on sale for $180 at Best Buy.
The Moto G Fast has many of the same features as the Moto G Power, including the 6.4-inch display and triple-rear camera array. However, it does have a smaller battery, less RAM and half of the storage, as well as lower screen resolution. It’s on sale for $150 at Best Buy. Note you can save another $50 on each phone if you choose to activate today.
