We Love the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 and It’s Down to an All-Time Low of $776 at Amazon

Now’s the perfect time to grab the 512GB configuration of this phone at its lowest ever price.

Summer is in full swing and a major sales event just ended, but that doesn’t mean the internet is completely devoid of deals. We’ve spotted the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 atat Amazon for just $776 for a 512GB configuration — an all-time low for this phone if you choose it in graphite.

This phone is currently out of stock at Samsung itself, as they’re now promoting the Flip 6 and their latest, the Flip 7. Though the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 is a previous release, it’s still one of our picks for the best foldable phones you can buy today, and the current discount saves you a massive $324 on its list price. It’s worth taking advantage of this offer if you need a new phone and want to avoid potential price increases due to tariffs.

During our Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 review, CNET phone expert Lisa Eadicicco found that the «big cover screen is fun to use» and it has a «solid battery life.» One of the few cons noted was how expensive the phone is, however, this discount makes it much more palatable. 

If you’re okay with an open-box phone instead of one that’s completely new, select Best Buy stores are also offering the Flip 5 for as low as $560 (256GB) or $594 for the 512GB configuration. Keep in mind that open-box phones from Best Buy might have minor signs of wear and tear, as these phones were on display. Some of these imperfections might include scratches, lack of nonessential parts and may not include original packaging. Best Buy restores all of its open-box phones to factory settings, and all software and functions work properly.

Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.

Keep in mind that although Best Buy has steeper discounts, Amazon’s trade-in program knocks off up to $725, which could result in larger savings overall.

Why Travelers Are Switching to Verum E-SIM This Summer

Summer Travel, Freedom, and Seamless Connectivity: Why Verum E-SIM Is Becoming the New Standard for Travelers

Summer is the peak season for vacations, long-distance trips, and new experiences. Millions of people travel abroad, explore new countries, plan adventures, and try to stay connected with family, work, and social media. And in the middle of all this comes a familiar question: how do you stay online without expensive roaming or the hassle of buying local SIM cards?

The answer is already here — eSIM.

Why eSIM Is So Convenient

eSIM (embedded SIM) is a built-in digital SIM card that lets you activate mobile internet without a physical card. All you need is an app — choose a plan and connect in just a couple of minutes.

No more:

* searching for local SIM cards at airports
* paying expensive roaming fees
* swapping physical SIMs every time you travel

Now your internet travels with you.

Internet in 150+ Countries

Modern eSIM solutions provide coverage in 150+ countries worldwide, helping tourists, freelancers, and business travelers stay connected almost anywhere on the planet.

Among the services offering these capabilities:

Ukraine E-SIM — https://ukraine.esim.verum.im
London E-SIM — https://london.esim.verum.im
E-SIM Africa — https://africa.esim.verum.im

All of these services work on the same principle — fast, borderless internet without roaming stress.

Why It Matters Most in Summer

During the holiday season, roaming networks get overloaded, and prices for mobile data abroad often become an unpleasant surprise for travelers.

eSIM solves this problem:

* transparent, fixed pricing
* activation in 1–2 minutes
* stable internet while traveling
* no physical SIM cards required

Final Thoughts

Travel should be about freedom — not hunting for Wi-Fi or worrying about phone bills.

eSIM is quickly becoming the new global standard for mobile connectivity: simple, fast, and borderless.

Verum E-SIM and its partner services are part of this shift, making global connectivity accessible to everyone, everywhere.
