Weekly deals roundup: Galaxy S26 Ultra, S26 Plus, iPad Air (M4), and more spectacular offers

Four color options, a generous 13-inch Liquid Retina IPS LCD screen, a super-powerful Apple M4 processor, all-day battery life, classic fingerprint recognition, and a hefty $110 discount. Is this the greatest tablet deal available this week? I think so.

You don’t need to trade anything in to get the S Pen-wielding Galaxy S26 Ultra super-flagship with a built-in Privacy Screen and a state-of-the-art Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite 5 processor under the hood for as little as $1,049.99. But you may have to hurry and place your Samsung.com/us order as soon as possible, especially if you also want to score free $100 e-store credit to use towards your favorite accessories.

If getting more storage is more important to you than a larger screen and a built-in stylus, the Galaxy S26 Plus can actually be a smarter buy than the S26 Ultra right now at a whopping $235 under its list price in a 512GB variant and a single Cobalt Violet colorway.

Is the Galaxy A37 the best budget 5G phone you can get in 2026? Probably not, but at a $75 discount in three different colors mere weeks after its US commercial debut, the 6.7-inch mid-ranger is clearly inching closer to that title.

One of the most ambitious and forward-thinking Android smartphone vendors has a new mid-ranger for you, which not only looks… unique, also packing a more than respectable Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 processor at a newly reduced price likely to remain unbeaten for quite some time. This is the handset’s first-ever discount, mind you, and it’s only available in black.

Excited for the imminent start of the 2026 World Cup? There’s no better way to show that excitement for a mobile tech enthusiast than with a limited-edition Razr foldable at a reduced price with a smartwatch, some earbuds, and a Moto Tag also included. That’s $479 in gifts on top of a $100 outright smartphone discount.

Released less than a year ago with a high-end (ish) Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor under the hood and a gorgeous 6.67-inch AMOLED screen in tow, the Nothing Phone (3) can be an excellent alternative to the likes of the OnePlus 15 and Samsung Galaxy S26, especially at a hefty $160 discount.

Do you need a large screen, large battery, blazing fast charging and think you can settle for less-than-great cameras (by high-end standards) and a non-Elite Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 SoC? The OnePlus 15R could be your best option today at a $100 discount in a 512GB storage variant (with promo code GRADUATION) with two cool freebies also included.

The least popular member of last year’s ultra-high-end Galaxy S25 handset family is without a doubt the most appealing one right now at a huge $300 discount with no strings attached… that’s unlikely to last long. And yes, I do believe the Galaxy S25 Plus can be a smarter buy than both the S26 Plus and S26 Ultra… for the right type of user.

Even if the brand is likely to pull out of the US market soon, the OnePlus 15 remains undeniably one of the greatest Android phones you can buy, especially at a massively reduced price of $749.99 in a 256GB storage variant (with coupon code EXTRA100). On top of that huge discount, OnePlus will also throw in a gratis pair of ultra-high-end wireless earbuds.

Motorola’s newest budget-friendly foldable is a little costlier than its predecessor but still cheaper than a Galaxy Z Flip 7. And although it’s not technically discounted yet, you can at least get the Razr (2026) with free high-end Moto Buds 2 Plus if you hurry.

Samsung is rumored to abandon the Galaxy Z Flip line soon, and if that makes you sad, the best thing you can probably do is show your support for clamshell-style foldables by purchasing the latest entry at a hard-to-beat $200 discount in an entry-level 256GB storage variant and three color options.

Digital hoarders who can’t afford the 512GB Galaxy S26 Plus at its latest discount should consider the “vanilla” Galaxy S26 with the same amount of internal storage space at a substantial $119 markdown of its own in a Sky Blue color, especially if you don’t consider a smaller screen an automatic flaw.

Probably the best book-style foldable available in the US can be had at a killer $350 discount in two color options, and if Amazon’s latest Galaxy Z Fold 7 deal doesn’t seem that impressive to you, the impending arrival of the Z Fold 8 could make you regret not pulling the trigger here.

How could you not love the 11-inch Lenovo Idea Tab with a 90Hz refresh rate-supporting screen, quad speaker system, 8GB RAM, 128GB internal storage space, and octa-core MediaTek Dimensity 6300 processor, all at a massive discount of $130 from a recently increased price?

The second of the three Idea Tabs sold at a very special price for Memorial Day might be the most appealing of the bunch, fetching exactly two Benjamins with a beautiful 12.1-inch screen in tow, a reasonably powerful MediaTek Dimensity 6400 processor on deck, and a Lenovo Tab Pen included in the box.

One of the best budget-friendly Android tablets around is even better than usual at a $40 discount in an entry-level 128GB storage configuration. The Galaxy Tab A11 Plus doesn’t come with a built-in S Pen or high-quality AMOLED screen, but its 90Hz refresh rate-capable display is still pretty great for the sub-$250 segment, and the same goes for the 6.9mm waist and “long-lasting” 7,040mAh battery equipped with 25W charging technology.

The 13-inch Idea Tab Pro is obviously better… and slightly costlier than its little brothers, going for a whopping 40 percent off its list price right now with 8GB RAM, a MediaTek Dimensity 8300 processor, and a Lenovo Tab Pen Plus. The odds of this deal getting any better anytime soon are slim (at best), and with Memorial Day right around the corner, it might be a good idea to pull the trigger right now.

The smallest of the two new iPad Airs released by Apple earlier this year is almost shockingly affordable with 256GB internal storage space after a new $90 markdown from a $699 list price. This 11-incher is more powerful than almost all the best Android tablets out there, and the Retina display, battery life, sound quality, and software support are all pretty amazing as well.

For the umpteenth time in recent weeks, the Apple Watch Series 11 is discounted by a cool $100, and for the umpteenth time, I’m recommending a purchase for all iPhone users… who can’t afford the Apple Watch Ultra 2 and don’t think the Apple Watch SE 3 serves their needs adequately.

Google’s latest and greatest in-house smartwatch is deeply discounted once again for buyers with large wrists who can’t live without cellular connectivity always being at their disposal. Only one color option is marked down by $103.99, though, so you’ll probably want to hurry and claim the deal before it inevitably goes away.

With a powerful 11mm driver, active noise cancellation, epic battery life, and ChatGPT integration, Nothing’s low-cost earbuds might be the greatest value proposition in the entire wireless audio market right now at a 25 percent discount from their already reasonable $79 list price.

The non-a-branded Nothing earbuds are obviously even better, with higher-quality audio, superior active noise cancellation, and a decidedly eye-catching design, which is why they’re also costlier… but far from prohibitive at their latest 40 percent discount from a $149 list price.

Equipped with Personalized Spatial Audio technology and an Apple H2 chip but no active noise cancellation, the latest “regular” AirPods are… not to be ignored at a decent 23 percent discount.

Costlier than most other wireless earbuds available today, Apple’s latest AirPods Pros are also more sophisticated than almost any rival you can think of, packing everything from world-class active noise cancellation to heart rate monitoring, live translation capabilities, and Personalized Spatial Audio technology with dynamic head tracking support.
