A couple weeks ago Xbox announced the first Developer Direct of the year, and that day is today.

The new Galaxy S25, S25+, and Galaxy S25 Ultra preorders are now live with some serious price drops at the ready alongside our exclusive $50 price drops.

The brand makes what are easily some of the very best cases for the latest smartphones with super-affordable price tags, and we are already tracking some light launch deals on Amazon with models starting from just $17 Prime shipped. Scope them out below.
