Nobody likes paying full price for a new smartphone — and that’s especially true for those looking to buy one of the latest flagship devices. Discounts are often fleeting for these new phones, but the good news for bargain-hunters is that you can usually score a worthy deal by taking advantage of carrier promotions that are almost always available. Best Buy has an enticing offer right now on the iPhone 11, letting you save $100 through August 2 when you buy an

and activate with Verizon — and you can do it all online or in-store safely and easily.

The iPhone 11 series is Apple’s latest and greatest mobile flagship, and following recent smartphone trends, the Cupertino, California-based company released three devices instead of just two. The iPhone 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max are the premium models of Apple’s mobile stable with price tags to match: The 11 Pro comes with a starting sticker price of $1,000 (the larger 11 Pro Max will set you back an extra $100), following in the footsteps of previous releases like the iPhone X. Many people understandably don’t need that much phone, so Apple also released the more budget-friendly iPhone 11 alongside the Pro models, this one coming with a more reasonable $700 retail price.

All three phones are great and hit their marks just about perfectly. The iPhone 11 is a fantastic all-purpose phone, offering great performance, highly polished Apple build quality, and all-day battery life at a price that doesn’t make you wince. If you’re willing to pay for the upgrades of the iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max, though, then you do indeed get what you pay for; namely, gorgeous upgraded displays and the best camera modules to be found on any smartphone in 2020.

This $100 discount offer is valid from Monday, July 20, through the end of Sunday, August 2, and is exclusive to Verizon. You automatically get your discount when you purchase your

Water-resistant GoPro Hero 11 Black action camera is $100 off

The GoPro Hero 11 Black on a rock with barnacles.

If you're searching for GoPro deals, you're in luck because the latest version of the brand's action cameras, the GoPro Hero 11 Black, is currently on sale from Best Buy at $100 off. Instead of its sticker price of $500, you're only going to have to pay $400. There are still a couple of days left on the offer, but it's not recommended to wait until the last minute before you complete your purchase because stocks may run out sooner than the bargain's expiry. If you want the action camera for cheaper than usual, you're going to have to push through with the transaction right now.

Why you should buy the GoPro Hero 11 Black action camera
The GoPro Hero 11 Black looks very similar to the GoPro Hero 10 Black, which means that if you have accessories for its predecessor, you can keep using them for your shoots once you upgrade. The image sensor of the GoPro Hero 11 Black is larger though with a bit more height, so you'll be able to capture both horizontal and vertical videos at the same time. The action camera can record videos at up to 5.3K resolution at 60 frames per second, with the ability to take 15.8MP photos from those videos and the option to go with 8x slow motion at 2.7K quality. When taking standalone pictures, it can go up to 27.0MP.
