Amazon is currently having a big Spring Sale across its entire site. Of course, that means plenty of tech deals to be had. If you're in the market for a new Android smartphone, Amazon has sales on some of the best phones from both Google and Samsung.
Google Pixel
Amazon is running deals on four different Google Pixel devices. If you're looking for the least expensive of the bunch, you could check out the Pixel 7a: Google's "budget" phone from 2023 comes with a 6.1-inch 1080p display with a 90Hz refresh rate, the Tensor G2 chip, 8GB of RAM, and a 4385 mAh battery. Google says it will support the 7a with software updates until at least May 2026, and with security updates until May 2028, so for $374 (originally $499), this is a pretty good deal.
If you want something slightly newer, look at the Pixel 8. Amazon currently has it listed for $499 (originally $699) for the 128GB model, or $559 (originally $759) for the 256GB model. Since this is a flagship Pixel phone, you'll get updated features, like the Tensor G3 chip, an upgraded camera with Macro Focus, a 6.2-inch 1080p display that reaches 120Hz, and a 4575 mAh battery.
For the best of the best that Google has to offer with the Pixel smartphone line, there's the Pixel 8 Pro. Amazon is selling Google's premiere flagship for $749 (originally $999) for the 128GB model, $809 (originally $1,059) for the 256GB model, and $919 (originally $1,179) for 512GB. With that, you get a 6.7-inch 1344p display with a 120Hz refresh rate, Google's best dual-camera system, 12GB of RAM across all variants, and a 4950 mAh battery.
Finally, if you're more interested in foldable phones, there's the Pixel Fold. Google's foldable phone is on sale at Amazon for $1,289.99 (originally $1,799) for the 256GB model, or $1,740 (originally $1,919) for 512GB. Despite the higher price tag, it does come with Google's Tensor G2 chip, so it's one generation behind the Pixel 8 line. However, you do benefit from two different displays: One 5.8-inch 1080p on the front of the device, which opens up to reveal a 7.6-inch 1840p display. Both displays reach 120Hz. In addition, you get 12GB of RAM, and a 4821 mAh battery.
Samsung Galaxy
On the other side of Amazon's Spring Sale are deals on Samsung Galaxy phones. Kicking things off, let's look at the Galaxy A25. This is Samsung's "budget" Galaxy phone, but you really get a lot of phone for a good price. The A25 comes with a 6.5-inch 1080p display with a 120Hz refresh rate, 128GB of storage (with optional expandable storage) and 6GB of RAM, as well as a tri-camera system, one with a 50MP sensor. Amazon lists this phone for $264.99 (originally $299.99), so while it's not a huge savings, the overall price makes this a solid deal.
Jumping up in scale, Amazon has spring deals on the Galaxy S24+: $849.99 (originally $999.99) for the 256GB model, or $969.99 (originally $1,119.99) for the 512GB model. This phone comes with a 6.7-inch 1440p display with a 120Hz refresh rate, a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip, 12GB of RAM, and a tri-camera system with a 50MP sensor.
If a flippable smartphone is more your speed, check out the Galaxy Z Flip 5. This flip phone comes with a 3.4-inch front display, which opens to reveal a 6.7-inch 1080p display with a refresh rate of 120Hz. It also comes with a 3700 mAh battery, 8GB of RAM, and a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip. You can pick one up for $849.99 (originally $999.99) for the 256GB model, or $969.99 (originally $1,119.99) for the 512GB model.
Finally, there's the Galaxy Z Fold 5, Samsung's latest foldable smartphone. This smartphone has a 6.2-inch front display, which opens up into a 7.6-inch 1812p display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The phone is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, and comes with 12GB of RAM, a tri-camera system with one 50MP sensor, and a 4400 mAh battery. You can get it for $1,499.99 (originally $1,799.99) for the 256GB model, or $1,619.99 (originally $1,919.99) for 512GB.
