Weekly Deal: Nothing Phones (3) on sale, Galaxy S26 and Pixel 10 series also discounted

Mother’s Day is Sunday next week and we are already seeing some reduction in shipping times after the holiday. However, most phones will still arrive on time.

Granted, the Nothing Phone (3) probably wouldn’t be mom’s first choice — but with a $200 discount, this Snapdragon 8S Gen 4 powered phone offers a good balance between performance and camera quality. It has a large 50MP 1/1.3” sensor on the main camera, a 50MP 3x telephoto camera, a 50MP ultra-wide (114°) and a 50MP selfie camera.

The phone has a 6.67″ 10-bit OLED display on the front and a customizable glyph matrix on the back. It runs on a 5,150mAh battery with 65W wired and 15W wireless charging. The phone got an impressive active usage score of 12:56h. The charging speed is quite good, though – with the right charger, it takes an hour to reach 100%.

Samsung’s Galaxy A37 and Galaxy A57 mid-rangers were launched a few weeks ago and we’re still waiting for proper discounts. The A37 256GB is $20 off, but that’s it for now.

Samsung Galaxy A17 (5G) is from this series. This is a cheaper version of the A37 with a 6.7″ 1080p OLED (90Hz instead of 120Hz) and a 5,000mAh battery (25W charging instead of 45W). The 50MP main camera has a smaller sensor (1/2.76″ vs 1/1.56″) and the ultra-wide only has a 5MP sensor. Then there’s the older chipset (Exynos) vs the 1330 1480) and lower ingress protection (only IP54 vs IP68), although the A17 does have a microSD slot.

Even with the massive $200 discount, the price of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 still remains quite high. The phone is soon to be replaced (as is the Z Fold7) with the 8-series arriving in a few months. Still, Motorola has yet to update its Razr foldables, while neither Google nor Apple are looking to release a flip-style model. Apple will finally join the foldable market later this year, though it will be a book-style foldable.

Let’s take a quick check on Samsung’s Galaxy S26 series. These are essentially the same offers we’ve been seeing for the past few weeks – a straight discount and a trade-in bonus. The Ultra gets the biggest discounts, while the vanilla models get the least discounts.

Moving over to the Pixel aisle, there is a $100 discount on select models of the Google Pixel 10 series – this includes the vanilla, Pro, and Pro XL.

We’ll finish things off with the Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Lite. This slate is powered by the Exynos 1380 chipset and has expandable storage – still, it might be beneficial to get the 256GB model for the extra 2 gigabytes of RAM. The tablet features a 10.9″ LCD (90Hz) and an 8,000mAh battery with 25W charging. The retail package includes an S Pen.
