Last year’s OnePlus flagships are still great devices, and the standard model is definitely worth a look on Prime Day. The device is available for: $499.99, placing it in the mid-range. Expect a beefy Snapdragon 888 chipset, 65W wired charging, wireless charging support and a great rear camera.

OnePlus 10 Pro

This isn’t the best OnePlus flagship ever released, due to a disappointing ultra-wide camera and lack of an IP rating for unlocked devices. However, it is definitely a tastier purchase at $799 ($100 off). You still get a lot of phones though, like the flagship silicon, a 5,000mAh battery, 65W wired charging, fast wireless charging, and a great QHD+ display.

Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus

Now’s a great time to get on the foldable cart, as the Galaxy Z Flip 3 hit its lowest-ever price on Prime Day. In front of $699.99 ($300 off), you get a clamshell foldable phone with a 6.7-inch foldable screen and a small secondary display on the outside. Otherwise, you also get software to take advantage of both the form factor and water resistance.
