The iPhone SE (2022) has always been small in size yet big in value. The value with this deal is even better although there is a catch — the phone is locked to Simple Mobile. If that isn’t an issue though, you’re getting a seriously good phone for not much. It has a 4.7-inch Retina HD display, a 12MP wide camera, and a 7MP FaceTime HD camera, while the A15 Bionic chip remains pretty speedy for whatever apps or games you want to use. Touch ID support, IP67 water resistance, and 5G support all add to the benefits this phone provides.

There’s also strong performance from the Tensor G2 processor while the 6.7-inch OLED display looks great thanks to peak brightness of up to 1,500 nits and 120Hz refresh rate.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 is a great phone for anyone that wants something a little different. A foldable phone, it has a 6.2-inch Dynamic AMOLED screen with a 2316 x 904 resolution and 120Hz refresh rate, before folding out to gain a 7.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED screen with a 2176 x 1812 resolution. You’ll hardly notice the crease but you’ll love the extra screen space without having to carry something bulkier. It’s also pretty fast with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor, while a 50MP main camera, 12MP wide-angle camera, and 10MP telephoto lens will suit photographers.
