If you're looking at phones during the Black Friday sales, you're probably looking for a good deal.
But among the Samsung Galaxy and Google Pixel deals, there's a major discount you may have missed.
This is the CMF Phone 1, the first-ever handset from the Nothing sub-brand and the most budget-friendly phone you can buy right now. It wasn't exactly expensive to begin with, starting at just £209 in the UK, but Amazon's Black Friday deal means it's now available for just £169.90.
This represents a 19% reduction and the lowest price ever recorded. This also applies to the three colors: black, light green and orange.
In the US, the only discount is a $20 savings on the more expensive 256GB model, down from $289 to $269. Just make sure to click on the coupon there to get the discount.
However, this is actually the first discount we've seen on the phone in the US, so it's the cheapest ever here too. And unlike Prime Day, you don't need to be an Amazon Prime member to benefit from it, although you will get fast delivery at no extra cost.
It's also extraordinary value for the phone you get. In our full review of the CMF Phone 1, we described it as “exactly what the budget market was missing.” A truly unique design includes an interchangeable plastic back and removable 'accessory point'.

Other highlights include Nothing's sleek, highly customizable version of Android, solid performance, and a wide range of fun accessories.
It's not perfect, with cameras being an obvious flaw, but it's a remarkable phone in more ways than one. There's a reason it's at the top of our guide to the best budget phones.
