Weekly deals: Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra price drops, the Google Pixel 10 Pro XL is still cheaper

As a reminder, Amazon pulled Prime Day forward this year and it is now scheduled for June 23-26. The retailer already has early Prime Day deals that you may want to have a peek at. In the meantime, here are the standard deals – no subscription required.

The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra 512GB is down to $1,220, which is a bit lower than it was a couple of weeks ago. The phone is clearly the big seller this generation as the other two S26 models get no discounts at all. We’re highlighting the 512GB model in particular as the 256GB version has a noticeably smaller discount, so it’s only $45 less – not really worth it for only getting half the storage.

Even with this new discount, a 512GB Google Pixel 10 Pro XL is $200 lower than the 512GB S26 Ultra. The gap down to the 256GB version is also fairly small at $70. You can find an in-depth comparison of the Pixel 10 Pro XL and the Galaxy S26 Ultra in our dedicated article.

Amazon has a good offer on the small Google Pixel 10 Pro too. It competes directly with the Samsung Galaxy S26, which as we mentioned above, has no discount at the moment – we checked both Amazon and Samsung.com, nada. This makes the Pixel the cheaper phone, especially if you go up to 512GB storage (the 512GB S26 costs $1,100).

You can go even lower with the non-Pro Google Pixel 10 – here’s our Pixel 10 vs. Pixel 10 Pro article for a closer look at just how much you would lose doing that.

With the S25 FE due for retirement soon, the Galaxy A57 is the Samsung mid-ranger to look at right now. Here’s how the Galaxy A57 compares with the S25 FE, if you are curious. As for Google’s lineup, the A57 is priced lower than the Pixel 10 and it lacks a telephoto lens, which puts them in different categories.

A57’s direct competitor is instead the Google Pixel 10a – their 256GB versions cost the same and the 128GB ones are within $40.

Motorola unveiled the Motorola Edge (2026) earlier this week and it chose a 6.3” display for it. The phone will be available next week (June 11) and while we think its starting price of $600 is, shall we say, “ambitious”, the new Edge will serve as an interesting alternative to the Galaxy A57 and Pixel 10a once it gets its first discount.
