Apple<\/a>, Samsung, Google<\/a> and other brands have released a constellation of smartphones<\/a> that give everyone a reason to consider an upgrade. Just about every tech company has improved specs, cameras, battery life and other features across the board. However, high quality means higher prices. Brands such as Apple have announced formal price hikes, and no brand is safe from increases.<\/p>\n

Should I shop phone deals now or wait for Black Friday?<\/p>\n

If you can score a carrier deal that gets you a free smartphone, then shopping now might be best. That\u2019s because Black Friday and Cyber Week are likely to ensure that retailers and carriers are getting more web and in-person foot traffic. Popular smartphones might be in short supply.<\/p>\n

Which retailers are offering the best Black Friday phone deals?<\/p>\n

Amazon and Best Buy are the go-to places if you want to score unlocked phones at a discount with all manner of discounts from Samsung, Google, Motorola and more. For iPhones, or if you just prefer a pay-monthly option, carriers like T-Mobile and Verizon are your best bet, with discounts reaching as much as $1,200 on some handsets with attached plans.<\/p>\n

Should I shop carrier deals or buy an unlocked phone this Black Friday?<\/p>\n

Buying on a carrier plan versus unlocked will depend on your circumstances. It\u2019s usually cheaper overall to buy the phone unlocked, especially if you can get a discount on the hardware, and then pay your carrier of choice just for your phone plan. That said, it does require putting several hundred dollars (or more) down right away to get the phone in your hands. If you\u2019d prefer to spread that cost, even if it ends up costing a bit more in the end, then a carrier deal is best for you.<\/p>\n

To maximize savings on unlocked smartphones, make sure you look through retailer trade-in programs, direct discounts and other freebies. <\/p>\n

Which phone brands should I shop on Black Friday?<\/p>\n

Apple, Google and Samsung are probably your best bet. They aren\u2019t cheap, and Black Friday deals are certain to help you score one of these smartphones for less. This is especially the case if you choose a previously released version of these smartphones. That being said, if you\u2019re an Android user, OnePlus and Nothing phones are also excellent alternatives with rave reviews and even lower prices than their mainstream competition.<\/p>\n

Samsung is likely to offer some of its best prices of the year during Black Friday season. Google is also running early Black Friday deals right now that are enhanced if you switch to Fi. If you want to save on an iPhone, you\u2019ll have to pay close attention to other retailers and carriers, as Apple doesn\u2019t offer direct discounts.<\/p>\n

Will I find good iPhone deals during Black Friday?<\/p>\n

Yes, you can find solid Black Friday iPhone deals, though not directly at Apple. There\u2019s a chance third-party retailers like Best Buy will discount the unlocked handsets, though the biggest discounts will be found via carriers like T-Mobile, which are offering the latest models with as much as $1,200 off, effectively making the phone free via bill credits.<\/p>\n

A reminder that many smartphones have seen an uptick in price. This is the case regardless of which brand you want to buy, so Black Friday offers an excellent opportunity to grab some of the lowest prices of the year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Apple, Samsung, Google and other brands have released a constellation of smartphones that give everyone a reason to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":824727,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[2306,86,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-824726","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mobile","tag-mobile","tag-technology","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/824726","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=824726"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/824726\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/824727"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=824726"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=824726"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=824726"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
