Black Friday in the US falls on November 27 and most UK retailers have picked the same date. You don’t have to wait until the end of the month, however, since Amazon has some early Black Friday deals that are hard to miss.
Officially, there is a promo campaign that discounts Galaxy products by up to £300 – you can find more details here. However, we found that the discounts actually go up to £570 in practice. Additionally, there are bundle offers – you can get £70 off if you pair your phone purchase with a Galaxy Watch (more details here) and £40 off if you pick up a pair of Galaxy Buds4 or Buds4 Pro (details here).
The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra starts at under £900 and with a massive £570 discount, even the 512GB version is under £1,000. For a deep dive on the S26 Ultra, check out our articles that compare it against its predecessor, the iPhone 18 Pro Max and the Pixel 11 Pro XL.
The Samsung Galaxy S26+ offers are good in a vacuum, but in the context of the S26 Ultra discounts, the Plus model is an easy skip – we’re just including it here for context.
While the Samsung Galaxy S26 discounts aren’t any better than those of the Plus model, the phone’s lower base price helps. The cheapest option (with 256GB storage) starts at under £700 now. And don’t forget that you can get an extra discount if you get a watch or TWS buds with it.
The Samsung Galaxy S26 FE doesn’t quite earn its S-series name, but it is a solid upgrade over its predecessor. And it’s a lot cheaper than the S26+, in case the vanilla S26 is too small for you, but you balk at the S26+ price.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 is also part of the fun – its best discount is £430 off for the base 12/256GB model. And you can pair it with a watch or headphones too. Here’s how the wide foldable compares against the Z Fold8 Ultra.
We mentioned Samsung Galaxy Watches and Buds4 headphones. They are available separately too with a small discount, plus a free Strava subscription that is valued at £54.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 is the current 11” flagship as the Tab S12 series only has 12.6” Tab S12+ and 14.6” Tab S12 Ultra models. This one gets just a straight discount, no bundle offers.
The Oppo Find X10 is now £157 off for the 512GB model, which means it costs the same as the 256GB model. It’s an impressive if expensive phone – in our review, we found little to complain about, other than its price. Alas, the Oppo Find X10 Pro Max doesn’t have such a discount yet.
The discounts on Google phones don’t cut as deep. This means that the Google Pixel 11 Pro XL still costs £1,000 for a 12/256GB model – £130 more than the equivalent Galaxy S26 Ultra. Here’s how these two compare and more details on upgrades over the 10 Pro XL.
Similarly, the 6.3” Google Pixel 11 Pro is a bit more expensive than the Galaxy S26 that it competes with. It has decent upgrades over its predecessor and offers largely the same user experience as its Pro XL sibling.
The vanilla Google Pixel 11 is also in the 6.3” category. It is less capable than the 11 Pro, but it’s also some £160 cheaper.
The Motorola Razr Fold offers an interesting alternative to Samsung’s and Google’s book-style foldables. Its body is rated IP49 for high water resistance and it houses a 6,000mAh battery with 80W wired and 50W wireless charging. There is a triple 50MP camera on the back, including a 3x/71mm telephoto module.
Of course, Motorola is best-known for flip foldables like the Moto Razr 70 Ultra. This one uses the old Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset (which is two generations old at this point) and lacks a telephoto camera – there’s only a 50MP main and a 50MP ultra-wide. The battery is quite good, though, with 5,000mAh capacity, 68W wired and 30W wireless charging.
There’s also the cheap option, the Motorola Razr 70. This one is more of a mid-ranger with a Dimensity 7450X chipset, but it also has a pair of 50MP cameras on the outside. The battery is a downgrade compared to the Ultra – 4,800mAh capacity, 30W wired and 15W wireless charging.
