Extra savings on some of the year’s best devices.

If the new vibes-based Black Friday means shopping for discounted phones and accessories online any day you please rather than standing in line at the mall, well, that’s a vibe I can relate to. The long, narrow outer screen isn’t my favorite format for a folding phone, but it has plenty of fans and its multitasking UI is excellent. Coupled with a strong software support policy with five years of security updates promised, it’s a great deal in the under-$500 class.
