31 Black Friday Deals On The Phones And Tablets We Love (2020)

Want a stylus with your phone? Samsung makes the best (almost the only one). The huge Note 20 Ultra (8/10, WIRED recommends) has a sprawling 6.9-inch display and the S Pen stylus is hidden away so you can remove it to scribble or mark documents. It’s one of the most powerful Android phones on the market with the Snapdragon 865+ processor, and it has great battery life, 5G, great cameras, and all the bells and whistles you could want. If you buy it directly from Samsung, you can get an extra piece on the phone if you trade in a qualifying device.
