Buying a phone is always a tough decision. Should you spend big on the latest handset with all the bells and whistles, or pay less and net a bargain?
Luckily, many smartphones are discounted shortly after they are released, but you can save even more on Amazon’s Prime sales, the last of which is today, 12 October.
To take advantage of most Prime Day deals you have to be signed up to Amazon Prime, Amazon’s monthly subscription service that also nets you free next day delivery on thousands of items, access to the company’s Netflix competitor Prime Video, Prime Music, and other perks.
You can sign up to a but it is normally $14.99/£8.99 per month, or $139/£95 per year after that 30-day trial. Find out more about how to sign up for Amazon Prime here.
Despite this, Amazon isn’t always the best place to find phones deals online. There are some great discounts to be found on Amazon on Prime Day, but they won’t necessarily be the best savings compared to other retailers who will also be running their own sales to compete.
We’ve scoured the web and below are what we think are the best phone deals in the US and UK today.
