We're big fans of the Samsung Galaxy S23 and S23 ultra here at Creative Bloq, and we're happy to see that Cyber Monday has brought us some of the best deals we've seen on the phone to date. T-Mobile is offering an S23 for free when you sign up to a new line or trade in an eligible device.
And if you prefer the S23 Ultra for its larger display, the stylus and the stunning camera array, you can put the saving towards that, or go to Samsung directly to get an unlocked Ultra for just $299 with a trade in. Finally, if you don't want a new plan and don't have a phone to trade in, Amazon has the S23 Ultra unlocked for $1,119 $800 – a saving of $300.
Some of our writers prefer iPhones, but the Samsung Galaxy S23 ultra retains its spot at the top of our pick of the best camera phones at Creative Bloq. When we reviewed the S23 Ultra, we found it to be fast and responsive, with great battery life. And of course, there are the excellent cameras. The downside is that it's pretty expensive, but these deals help with that. Here are the details (if you do prefer Apple, see our pick of the best Apple Cyber Monday deals).
