Called it. Last month, when I rounded up the best Samsung Galaxy S21 deals, I advised waiting for inevitable, imminent discounts on the new phone: "Last year, it was literally a matter of weeks after launch when bigger, better S20 deals started rolling out."

Sure enough, here we are, barely a month later, and there's already a price drop: For a limited time, and while supplies last, Amazon has the unlocked Samsung Galaxy S21 (128GB) for $700. That's $100 off the regular price.
Also on sale:
Want more storage? Bumping any of these models up to 256GB adds just $50 to the price. Most of these are in stock for immediate shipping, though the S21 Ultra with 256GB shows availability in "one to two months."
All these prices are currently matched at Best Buy (choose Activate Later to get the unlocked versions) and at B&H as well.
However, Amazon is offering one extra incentive: If you add the Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro to your cart (look for the "1 Applicable Promotions" option below the price) along with one of the S21 phones, you'll get an additional $100 off. That's effectively a 50% discount on the new earbuds; read David Carnoy's Galaxy Buds Pro review to see if they're worth it.
Assuming you can afford to buy the S21 outright, where should you take it for service? That's the beauty of an unlocked phone: Take it to whatever carrier has the best deal for your needs. At US Mobile, for example, you can save up to $250 on your first year of service when you bring your Galaxy S21. You could head to Visible and take advantage of the Party Pay plan, which can net you unlimited service for as little as $25 a month.
