Big phone discounts at a UK retailer this week, with the deepest cuts on Samsung models. Illustration generated by AI.

The deal that made me stop squinting is the Samsung Galaxy S26+ with 512GB at Amazon UK: £849, which is £500 off its regular price.1 A £500 cut is the largest on this list, so it earns a look. The sticker I could not verify is the “usual” price, because the source states only the discount amount, not the original figures, and it gives no end dates. Prices are as listed on Sunday, November 1, 2026.

My calls, one per phone:

  • Find X10 and Pro Max: Wait-and-see at most. They only just left pre-order, and £100 off a brand-new phone is modest.1
  • iPhone 17: Buy if you wanted it anyway; £100 off is a fair, plain discount.1
  • iPhone 17 Pro: Buy if you wanted it anyway; “up to £200” is doing heavy lifting, so check your storage tier.1
  • iPhone 17 Pro Max: Skip unless you need the size, since the cut is only £100.1
  • Galaxy S26: Buy; £370 off is a real chunk.1
  • Galaxy S26+: Buy, the headline deal. It shares its chip and triple-camera setup with the S26, and the main differences are display and battery size.1
  • Galaxy S26 Ultra: Buy if you want the 1TB model; £460 off is substantial.1
  • Galaxy S26 FE: Worth a look, but “up to” means the 256GB price here is the one to compare.1
  • Galaxy Z Fold8 and Fold8 Ultra: Fold8 is a buy at £370 off; the Ultra’s £300 off still leaves it above £2,000, so skip unless that screen is the point.1

Our read: The Samsung cuts are the deepest on the sheet and the Apple and Oppo ones the shallowest, so shop the S26 range first. No end dates are listed, which means no countdown to rush you.

These prices were as listed when this ran and may change.

Verdict: verified, with a catch (no usual prices or end dates are stated).
