With the push from carriers to switch to unsubsidized phone plans (meaning you pay for the full cost of your handset, instead of having it subsidized up front with the cost then hidden in your monthly bill), the entire deal landscape has changed.

That doesn’t mean you can’t find a good deal this Black Friday, though! There are several stores that are already hyping, and we’ve rounded up the best deals we’ve found so far on the latest Android smartphones.

Motorola’s new Moto G isn’t a high-end powerhouse, but it definitely has some good attributes, like a decent camera, and a water-resistant design that’s customizable through Moto Maker. It’s also ideal for finding singles in the desert — at least according to Motorola’s new ad.
