If you're hoping to upgrade your phone this season, Amazon's Big Spring Sale could be your best opportunity to snag one at a discount. Save yourself the hassle of coordinating a trade-in or new data plan at a specific carrier and check out Amazon's list of unlocked phones instead. Typically, you'll be able to find a better deal.
The Big Spring Sale event doesn't officially kick off until March 25, though deals tend to start popping up days (weeks, even) in advance. So far, the unlocked phone deals are few and far between, but you can already grab Samsung's new S25 Ultra at a record-low price. Google Pixel and Motorola deals are also trickling in, but we think the deals will get better closer to the event. Apple iPhones rarely (if ever) go on sale during Amazon shopping events, but we'll never say never.
Mashable's shopping team will be keeping our eyes peeled for all the best unlocked phone deals that appear leading up to (and during) the Big Spring Sale. Keep checking back if you don't see the phone you want just yet.
Note: Deals with a 🔥 next to them have dropped to record-low prices.

Why we like it
Just announced at Samsung's Galaxy Unpacked 2025 event in January, the Galaxy S25 Ultra upgrades the RAM, camera, and processor compared to the S24 series. It also features a whole lot more AI, for better or worse. It doesn't look too much different than the S24 Ultra, but it'll wow you in terms of internal updates. And that's saying something, considering how great the S24 already was. At $1,149.97, the S25 Ultra with 512GB of storage is down to a new record low.
