Why You Can Trust CNET 21 Phone Deals You Can Still Get After Prime Day
We've collected a lot of great phone deals you can still grab, even though Prime Day is already two days over.
Even though Prime Day is over, we're still seeing a lot of deals coming through for phones, including some new deals we didn't see during Prime Day. That's especially true when it comes to Amazon competitors, like Best Buy, who are still releasing some excellent deals. Be sure to check the deals and grab what you like before they run out. You can also take a look at our collection of Prime Day deals still available.
We've done our best to find deals that align with our own favorite phones, such as phones from our best phones under $300 and best phones overall lists. As such, we're confident in all the phones we've suggested below -- whether they're ultrabudget devices or higher-end flagship phones, you'll find a good phone with a great price. We've also focused primarily on unlocked phones that will work on all US carriers and noted where carrier service is required to get the deal.

A great budget option is the Nokia G100, which has a big 6.5-inch screen, though it's only HD resolution. It comes with a couple of nice features, such as a side-mounted fingerprint reader and facial recognition, which we're surprised to see at this price. There's also a decent amount of RAM and storage at 4GB and 128GB, respectively. The 5,000 mAh battery should get you through the day no problem.
It's rare to find such a great deal on a phone that has only just been released, but if you love Google and want a Pixel phone, this deal gives you both the Google Pixel 8 and the Pixel Buds Pro for less than $700. The Pixel 8 has a lot of new features, like the Best Take photo editing tool, powered by Google's own Tensor G3 processor. As for the Pixel Buds Pro, they have excellent audio fidelity, top-notch noise canceling and an amazing fit.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 is a phone that doesn't need an introduction, especially since it's one of the phones that helped launch the foldables market. Featured on our list of best Android phones, the Flip 5 comes with a larger and better front screen and an improved hinge that lets the phone close fully. It also comes with significantly better cameras and performance than the Flip 4 and a slightly better battery life.
While the iPhone 13 might be a little bit old at this point, especially with the iPhone 15 just coming out, it's still a great phone and worth picking up. That's especially the case if you don't want to spend the high price associated with a new iPhone or offers from a carrier. Save yourself $100 and grab an iPhone 13 5G for just $630.
Love it or hate it, the new iPhone 15 Pro comes with USB-C and a few other minor upgrades here and there. If you're just entering the Apple ecosystem, the iPhone 15 Pro is likely the way to go, with an improved A17 chip, the better 3.2 USB protocol, and the new optical zoom, which is better than the competition.
This is the only locked deal on the list, but only because it's so good: You only pay taxes and shipping and a $60 activation fee, which gets credited to your account. Then it's $60 a month for Boost Infinite, which gives you unlimited talk, text and data.
