The best deals of the week in handheld and mobile - June 26
|
iOS + Android + 3DS ...

Welcome, everyone, to our weekly round-up of the best deals in pocket gaming. We've got some top bargains in store for you.

It works like this: each week we bring the best deals in handheld gaming, predominantly covering the latest discounts for iOS and Android gamers.

We also cover a few deals on smartphones themselves, as well as a selection of handheld offers. Basically if it's portable and cheap, we're looking out for it.

iOS games

We've got a sizeable batch of iOS deals this week, covering a number of downright classics. If you haven't played any of the first five games, in particular, get buying. And set aside the next few evenings.

Handset deals

We're deep into the life of the iPhone 7 now, and a number of prettier and arguably more advanced Android phones have arrived on the scene. But it - together with its big brother the iPhone 7 Plus - is still the best gaming phone on the market.

Amazon is currently selling 128GB models of both with a nice chunk of money off. The only caveat is that you'll need to take them in 'Product Red'.


Handheld deals

This week we've got a really good price on that increasingly rare of things - a brand new 3DS game from a major developer. Ever Oasis is looking good.

Oh, and we've got a good price on PS Vita Monster Hunter-a-like Toukiden 2.
