As well as camera bodies, lenses and accessories, Black Friday also has some great savings on smartphones – for many of us, these have now become our most commonly used image-capture device.
Competition is stiff in the smartphone market, with camera features now becoming one of the key selling points, along with looks.
Android users are particularly spoiled for choice, and we’ve found a great deal on one of the best budget examples, the Google Pixel 8. US customers can get an unlocked phone for a fantastic $549, a saving of 21%!
For customers in the UK, you can get the unlocked Google Pixel 8 for £649 with a £50 voucher applied.
