I won’t quite sell my soul for it, but this silver-green match has my heart. OnePlus

OnePlus has an interesting set of deals going on right now: Simply type in HELLOMAY upon checkout at OnePlus for select items to get big savings. It’s a great way to celebrate the month, but what items are they? Here, we’re going to go through all of the deals, show you what you can save, and show you our take on the goods. If you don’t want to think too hard, however, these are all good items — favorites from OnePlus enthusiasts — with savings that range from $40 to $140, and many of the offers include a free gift. So, if you want to shop, you really don’t have to think that hard about anything other than entering the code HELLOMAY when you check out.

Here, you can get the OnePlus 12 in its superior 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage version. If you toss in your old phone you can save $100 more, too, via a trade-in offer. Our OnePlus 12 review dubbed it the “phone to beat” around this time last year for its powerful performance, strong battery life, and excellent Hasselblad camera system.

The Nord N30 5G is Nord’s take on a budget phone, but as you can see from our OnePlus N30 5G review , it doesn’t really have “budget phone quality” and instead can power through games and display in a buttery 120Hz. This deal comes with either a free case ($16 value) or wired earphones ($14) that can plug in via a jack, which the phone has, or USB-C (which it also has).

OnePlus Watch 2 — $250 $300 17% off

Our OnePlus Watch 2 review calls it a smartwatch with an “excellent battery life and a lovely design.” The gorgeous design is noticeable from the picture, but the battery life — which can be extended to around 12 days — is a more interesting story. You can turn it “down” to a power savings mode, which gives the basics but turns off things like the always-on display, apps, and Google Assistant.

OnePlus Watch 2R — $200 $230 13% off

The OnePlus Watch 2R is listed as one of the best smartwatches around, specifically as an excellent budget smartwatch for Android users. And, of course, now marked down to just $200, the budget factor is emphasized even more. Our OnePlus Watch 2R review touts its durable design, great battery life, and easily replaceable watch bands.

OnePlus Pad 2 — $450 $550 18% off + free gift

When we put out our OnePlus Pad 2 review late last year, we immediately considered it the best Android tablet of the year. Nice features include reliable splitscreen, a gorgeous 144Hz screen, and a rare six-speaker setup. Right now you can get a free gift with your purchase, too — a OnePlus Stylo 2 stylus ($100 value) or a folio case for the tablet ($40 value).

OnePlus Buds Pro 3 — $140 $180 22% off

In many ways, the OnePlus Buds Pro 3 are OnePlus’s answer to the AirPods, but for Android. You see the stem shape and you know what’s up. These buds have noise cancellation, a 43 hour battery life if you include what the case stores, spatial audio, and ANC, among other common buds features. One fun quirk to these, however, is built-in real time AI language translation when you use them paired with newer OnePlus phones.

A colorful deal? Save $500 on the OnePlus Open today, but color matters

If the first thing you think of when you think of a folding phone is the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold or the Samsung Galaxy Fold 6, it is time to broaden your horizons. Why? The OnePlus Open, considered to be one of the best folding phones, is a little older but still a worthy contender. And today, you can save $500 or more off of its usual $1,700 price.

However, where you should buy it depends on which color variation you want — Emerald Dusk (green) or Voyager Black. For the green variation, you can get the phone for $1,200 at either Amazon or Best Buy, saving you $500. The black version, however, is selling for $1,092 at Amazon. Despite not being labelled as a deal, the black version is $108 cheaper on Amazon than Best Buy and $608 cheaper than Best Buy's regular price. And, surprisingly, the colors do matter a tad.

If you're interested in the OnePlus Pad 2, you've got from now until March 16 to make it yours in the best way possible. It's been said that the upcoming OnePlus Pad 2 Pro could have the hardware chops to take on the iPad Pro. The current deal on the base Pad 2 takes it a step further by making the tablet more affordable and getting you even closer to having a fully-kitted tablet at no extra cost.

When you tap the button below and enter the code LUCKY25 upon checkout by March 16, you'll get $70 off of your purchase. And that's in addition to getting a free accessory (stylus or cover) as well. That makes the tablet $480 instead of $550 and technically $40 or even $100 cheaper if you were planning on buying the accessory anyhow.

How to get two OnePlus smartphones for the price of one!
OnePlus 12 Glacial White held against a textured white background.

Shopping for new smartphones can be a real chore, and Android devotees have it harder than those of us in the iOS camp when it comes to choosing a new device. Multiple brands use Android for phones, but in our experience, one manufacturer that tends to rise above the herd is OnePlus. And right now, the company is offering one heck of a deal:

For a limited time, when you purchase either the 256GB or 512GB version of the OnePlus 12, you’ll get the OnePlus Nord N30 5G (8GB of RAM, 128GB of storage) for absolutely free! That’s a $300 value, friends.
