The smartphone industry has evolved to offer cameras that are just as good or even better than traditional point-and-shoot cameras — at least in bright daylight. Modern smartphones, including iPhone 16 Pro and Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, feature at least three camera sensors for ultrawide, main and telephoto lenses. You can zoom out, zoom in, click gorgeous portraits, all from the device that sits in your pocket.You’ll start noticing a difference in smartphone camera quality in tricky lighting.

When was Amazon’s Big Spring Sale 2025? The second-annual Spring Sale ran from Tuesday, March 25, through Monday, March 31. Are deals really better during Amazon sales?For some big-name brands, Amazon sale events are the only time specific devices go on sale throughout the year. This is especially true for Amazon devices like Kindles, Fire tablets, Fire TVs, Amazon Echo devices, etc. According to one study, the average Amazon Prime Day discount is 16.2%, a fairly good discount for most products–and while this isn’t Prime Day, it’s still an Amazon-exclusive sales event, so we’re expecting the same discount numbers. How did we choose these Spring Sale deals?ZDNET only writes about deals we want to buy — devices and products we desire, need, or would recommend. Our experts looked for deals that were at least 20% off (or are hardly ever on sale), using established price comparison tools and trackers to determine whether the deal is actually on sale and how frequently it drops. We also looked over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the deals we’re recommending. Our recommendations may also be based on our own testing — in addition to extensive research and comparison shopping. The goal is to deliver the most accurate advice to help you shop smarter. What are the best Amazon Spring Sale 2025 deals still available?ZDNET’s experts are searching through Amazon Spring Sale deals that are still available after the event to find the best discounts by category. You can also find the best Amazon Spring Sale deals by price:And the best deals from other retailers this week:Looking for the next best product?
