Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 6 is yet another entry into the unfurling narrative that tells us flip phones are back. Today, there are multiple deals going on with the phone. For starters, if you buy at Amazon you can save $150, and if you buy at Best Buy you cave save $150 and get up to $460 in trade credits. But the best deal comes when you buy from Samsung, where you can get $150 off or up to $750 off if you do a trade-in, and a free or discounted bonus item. This can make the 256GB version of the phone just $350 and the 512GB version just $470 with a max trade in.

When we made our Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 review, we were happy with its quick performance and nice inner display, all critical for flipping and folding phones. It has a 6.7 inch AMOLED screen with a 2640 x 1080 resolution and a nice 120Hz refresh rate. We were also impressed with its IP48 water and dust resistance, which is not too much below the IP68 most of the best “non-bending” phones of today are sporting. At the time, however, we did note that the phone was “held back by a higher price” than the competition, something that this deal helps alleviate tremendously.
If you follow Samsung’s order page closely, after you pick storage, one of the seven colors the phone comes in, a trade-in option, and a Samsung Care+ option, you’ll be greeted with the fun part — exclusive offers. Here’s what you can get:
So, which of these should you get? If you don’t have earbuds or a smartwatch, they might be worthwhile. The ring sizing kit is absolutely free, though, so there’s no harm in grabbing it now in case you ever want a Galaxy Ring in the future. In any event, if you head to Samsung right now via the button below you can get all of these savings. The $150 that you get off by default brings the 256GB version of the Galaxy Z Flip 6 down to $950 from $1,100 and the 512GB version down to $1,070 from $1,220.
The OnePlus Buds Clip are a new pair of open-ear earbuds built around a simple convenience. They join Sony’s LinkBuds Clip in the growing ear-cuff category, but either OnePlus bud can go on either ear.
Sensors recognize how the earbuds are being worn and route the audio channels accordingly. There’s no label to check before putting them on, and the feature also works when only one bud is used.
We buy fitness bands and activity trackers to keep tabs on our exercise, but it is easy to forget to start tracking or switch modes when moving between different activities. For Fitbit and Pixel Watch users, that could soon become a lot less annoying, as Google is rolling out a major upgrade to automatic activity tracking that can recognize more than 100 types of exercise, up from just 10 before.
Google first showed off the improved tracking earlier this month alongside the Fitbit Edge. It is now coming to Fitbit Air and the Pixel Watch 3, 4, and 5, and Google claims the added context behind the system makes workout detection nearly twice as accurate while cutting missed activities by more than half. Fitbit Edge will support it too.
