The Black Friday sales have arrived early, especially if you're looking to buy a new smartphone. That's because OnePlus has just dropped the price on some of their most popular handsets, from their more modest mid-rangers to their latest flagships.
Known for stunning designs and high-quality cameras, OnePlus has become a huge name in the smartphone world. They easily compete against the likes of Samsung and Apple when it comes to the very best smartphones you can buy.
Even their more affordable devices manage to pack in everything you could need, which is why they've taken up a few spots in T3's guide to the best cheap phones.
'The ultimate mid-ranger' is what we called one the OnePlus Nord because it proved that you don't need to spend a huge amount of money on your next handset.
In T3's OnePlus Nord review, we were wow-ed by everything from its camera, performance and battery life to the design, screen and software experience. In fact, we liked it so much that it won the Best Value Phone award at the T3 Awards 2021.
Now you can get up to 30% off the OnePlus Nord at Amazon in one of the best Black Friday deals. The cheapest model is down to just £279 - its lowest price yet!
If you don't mind having a slightly older phone, then the OnePlus 8 Pro (their 2020 flagship) has had a huge price reduction too - it's now £500 cheaper than it was when it first launched. It may now have been overshadowed by the new kids on the block but it's still very capable in 2021. Find out what was so good about it in the OnePlus 8 Pro review.
OnePlus has led the way in packing high-end tech into phones that come at palatable prices, and these discounts make them even more convincing than they already were.
