Our favorite cheap smartphone is on sale for $250 right now

Our pick for the best cheap phone is on sale, making it an even better deal. The OnePlus Nord N30 5G is now $50 off.

You don't need to shell out a four-figure sum to find a great smartphone. The phone has a relatively zippy Snapdragon 695 5G processor, along with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, which is expandable with a microSD card. That's a pity for those looking for something that'll stay up to date for a few years without breaking the bank, but that level of Android support is typical for budget phones.
