Amazon will kick off Prime Deal Days on October 6 (Tuesday next week). The sales event will run for two days, but you don’t have to wait for it to start as the retailer is already offering some great early Prime Day deals. For example, the Galaxy Z Fold8 is nearly €600 off and the Z Fold8 Ultra is nearly €700 off.
Most but not all of the deals below require an active Prime subscription (if you haven’t activated the free trial, now is the time). We’ve marked all the ones that require Prime.
Okay, let’s go by category starting with foldables. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 is shaping up to be one of the hottest foldables of 2026 – but is it better than the Z Fold8 Ultra? Here are our thoughts on that. Anyway, the 256GB variant is 30% off, but if you want more storage, the 512GB variant only has a smaller (but still solid) discount.
And here’s the big guy, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra. This one is 29% off for the 512GB variant this time. We already looked at Z Fold8 vs. Z Fold8 Ultra, so here’s how the Z Fold8 Ultra and the Z Fold7 from last year compare.
The Motorola Razr Fold has a relatively small discount, but it was cheaper to begin with. This is a large book-style foldable with a 6.6” cover and an 8.1” inner display. It’s powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 (non-Elite), so it’s not a direct rival to the Z Fold8 Ultra, but it comes quite close. It has a bigger, faster charging 6,000mAh battery (80W wired, 50W wireless), at the cost of being thicker (10.1mm) and heavier (243g). It has a solid set of cameras with a 50MP 1/1.28” main, 50MP 3x/71mm telephoto and a 50MP 122° ultra-wide.
Moving on to clamshells, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip8 is 42% off for the 256GB model. The 512GB variant is over €1,200, unfortunately, which we don’t think is worth it.
The Motorola Razr 70+ is a bit cheaper with more storage, but that one uses the old Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 instead of a current chipset like the Exynos 2600 inside the Z Flip8. The Moto has a slightly bigger 4,500mAh battery (+200mAh) with faster charging (45W/15W vs. 25W/15W). It has a 50MP main (1/1.95”) and 50MP ultra-wide, while Samsung’s flip has a 50+12MP setup.
There’s also the cheaper Motorola Razr 70. This one doesn’t require Prime, it just has a discount at checkout. It’s a mid-range foldable powered by the Dimensity 7450X.
Next up, slab flagships. The vivo X500 Pro Max is on its way to Europe, but it’s not here yet and we think it will be quite pricey (vivo hasn’t said anything on the matter, though). Anyway, the vivo X300 Pro is 21% off. This Dimensity 9500-powered phone has a 6.78” 1260p+ LTPO OLED display and a 5,440mAh battery (90W/40W). The cameras are where it shines with a 50MP 1/1.28” main, 200MP 1/1.4” 3.7x/85mm periscope and a 50MP 119° ultra-wide.
In case you missed it, Samsung hiked up the prices of the Galaxy S26 series –
