This past Friday we released our updated guide to the best phones of today. Most of the top contenders come from brands you see almost daily at this point, with phones like the Apple iPhone 16 and Google Pixel Pro 9 sitting near the top of the list. Samsung and OnePlus also make the list, though aren’t quite as prolific. But when it comes to the great flip phones and great folding phones that are actually affordable? Motorola’s Razr is zooming to the forefront.

Right now, you can get the Motorola Razr 2024, which we dubbed the “best cheap folding phone,” for just $550 instead of the usual $700 the 256GB unlocked version costs. It’s incredibly affordable compared to the competition and an overall delightful phone to use. Tap one of the buttons below to see the Motorola Razr 2024 in a store of your choice while it is $150 off or keep reading to see why we like it so much.

Why you should buy the Motorola Razr 2024

The folding phones of today are way different than the ones we grew up with. In addition to having great phones, they have greater price tags than “flat” phones. However, we’ve found that the Motorola Razr 2024 flips the script in a delightful manner. It’s crease isn’t super noticeable, it has fun always-on cover screen displays, and fun colors to boot. Our Motorola Razr 2024 review also points out the phone’s great battery life (a day and some change) and states that the phone is “easily your best option” if you’re looking for a deal on a flipping/folding phone (and that’s at it’s normal $700 cost).

We’ve also compared the Motorola Razr 2024 and Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 cameras. Why? Partially because we could, but also because the Samsung phone is essentially double the price of the Motorola. You’ll need to check out the comparison first hand to see the results and judge the results for yourself, but the spoiler is that the Motorola does comparably well to the Samsung in all categories of photo but night mode. In fact, in some instances, the humble budget Motorola Razr 2024 actually beats that 4-digit-priced Samsung. Don’t let the low price instantly make you think it’s a cheap phone.

If you want to take advantage of this deal on an unlocked 256GB Motorola Razr 2024, getting it for $550 instead of $700, just tap one of the buttons below to save your $150. Alternatively, check out more folding phone deals to see more of what’s out there.

Forget the Google Pixel 10 Pro XL leaks, the Pixel 9 is $150 off

If you follow the hype, it seems like Apple fans are always having their day in the sun. But this week has been great for Google Pixel fans. First of all, there are leaked Google Pixel 10 Pro XL images to gawk at. The phone is already set up to be one of the best Android phones when it gets released, with only the Pixel 10 Pro Fold beating it in the Pixel 10 lineup. However, the other big news for the week is something you can act on now. The 128GB version of the Google Pixel 9 is $150 cheaper at Best Buy and Amazon right now, bringing it down to $649 from its usual $799. Tap the appropriate button below to snag one for yourself while the deal lasts, or keep reading to see why the Google Pixel 9 is the phone to buy today.

Why you should buy the Google Pixel 9
The Google Pixel 9 is one of the best Pixel phones yet, and average customers will probably prefer it to the Pro version for its more affordable price. In fact, the Google Pixel 9 has changed our minds about Pixel phones altogether for its fun magic editor features and high usability. As stated in our Google Pixel 9 review, the tactile haptics of this phone make it feel super responsive, while the great hardware of the phone (it has 12GB of RAM, for example) make it actually quite responsive. And the camera is so nice, you'll have to check out the Pixel 9 photos we took yourself to believe it.
