Tuesday was Apple's unofficial holiday, the one where a parade of executives each take the stage to tell us how many cameras the new iPhone 11 has. (The answer is three—or two if you go for the version that doesn't cost more than your laptop.)
We put out an explainer and preorder guide, but there's another benefit of a new iPhone: It brings price cuts, discounts, and deals on all kinds of semi-related devices as retailers prepare their mobile goods for the holiday season. Here are the best deals of the bunch.

(For reference, an unlocked phone is one that will work on multiple wireless networks.)
Google Pixel 3 Unlocked Black 64 GB for $488 ($311 off): Even though Tuesday was Apple's day, Google's flagship smartphone event is just around the corner, and you can already catch last year's spectacular Pixel 3 at a serious discount. The Pixel 3 gets updates faster than almost any other phone, and it's still well worth this kind of money. We listed the Pixel 3A as our favorite Android phone, and this device is faster than it.
Motorola Moto G7 for 240 ($60 off): The Moto G is not the best phone you can buy, but it is the best cheap phone you can own. It gets the job done, and this year, the G series doesn't really lag when you use your camera, either. It's a solid all-around phone and makes us wonder why we pay so much for phones, anyway.
Huawei P30 Pro 128 GB Unlocked for $535 ($215 off): If you need three cameras on your phone, but you're not quite taken by the iPhone Pro, it's worth mentioning that Huawei's flagship, the P30 Pro, is also on sale. This phone only works on AT&T and T-Mobile.
Samsung Galaxy S10 + Free Galaxy Buds + Wireless Charger for $749 ($198 savings): One of our favorite smartphones of the year, the Galaxy S10, has a good bundle that gives you the Galaxy Buds (our second-favorite pair of wirefree earbuds) and a wireless charging pad. The S10 is a good alternative if you're in the market for a new high-end phone. Here's a breakdown of the three S10 models.
Apple iPad Wi-Fi 32 GB for $249 ($80 off): This iPad is last year's model, but it's $80 cheaper and has the same processor as the new one. We expect it will sell out soon. Read our iPad buying guide for more info.
Apple iPad Pro 11-inch 64 GB $674 ($125 off): This one is near and dear to my (Jess) heart. The iPad Pro 11-inch is, in my opinion, the best tablet on the market today. At this price, you can pick up an Apple Pencil 2 with the cash you'll save and have yourself a solid mobile productivity bundle.
Apple Watch Series 4 for $350 ($50 off): The Apple Watch Series 5 won't hit store shelves for a few weeks, and even when it does, the Series 4 is still a top-shelf contender and one of the best smartwatches out there.
Beats Solo3 Wireless On-Ear Headphones for $160 ($140 off): These are a couple years old now, but they're still a solid choice if you're looking for a set of good wireless headphones, especially at this price.
iPad Pro 11-inch Smart Folio for $62 ($17 off): It's still about twice as expensive as any off-brand folio case you can pick up for the iPad Pro, but with this discount the Apple-brand folio isn't quite so unreasonable. The interior material is still softer and keeps cleaner than any off-brand folio I've seen.
iPhone Headphone Jack Adapter for $9 ($5 off): The iPhone 11 still uses Lightning. In this, the year 2019. So here's an accessory it never hurts to pick up, a Lightning-to-3.5-mm dongle, and it's $5 off.
Anker Powercore 20,100 mAh Power Bank for $45 ($5 off with coupon): Speaking of essential accessories that are 5 bucks off, the Anker Powercore has a slight discount over at Amazon. Click the coupon button on the page to get the discount.
iMac 27-inch 5K for $1,300 ($500 off): The polar opposite of an iPhone, the iMac is also on sale this weekend. It's a steep discount for a stylish all-in-one computer with a 5K display.
MacBook Air for $1,100 ($200 off): The new 13-inch MacBook Air is already on sale with a solid discount, making it an appealing option if you're in the market for an ultraportable laptop. To learn more, check out our Best MacBooks guide.
LG 65-inch Smart TV With Alexa Built-In for $996 ($502 off): What's a weekend sale without a couple TV deals? This LG 65-inch Smart TV has built-in support for Alexa and Google Assistant.
Samsung Flat 65-inch QLED 4K Smart TV for $1,100 ($1,100 off): This Samsung 65-inch TV is also available in 55-inch and 49-inch models, but this massive TV has the biggest price cut of them all, putting it within the same price category as much smaller and much less fancy TVs.
