Sometimes it feels like the price of smartphones keeps getting higher with each new model. Fortunately, this weekend's best Memorial Day sales are making it cheaper than ever to get the best phones we've tested.

Whether you're team iOS or team Android, there are dozens of great cell phone deals happening right now on both unlocked phones and smartphones connected to carriers. As a Verizon customer, one of my favorite weekend deals comes from Big Red itself. Right now, Verizon is offering a free smartwatch and tablet with the purchase of select iPhones, Galaxy phones, and Pixel phones. It's a deal I haven't seen since last year's holiday season.

If you're looking for unlocked deals, Samsung is offering up to $750 off its flagship Galaxy phones and doubling your storage for free. Below I've rounded up all of my favorite Memorial Day smartphone deals of the weekend.
