One thing to note to make sure you keep an eye on is that both the $18 price tag and the $20 price tag are not guaranteed, as Amazon itself has a policy that the shipping cost for some packages will be $8, which the sale doesn't include. In other words, it's a bit of a gamble.
So if you have an older smartphone that's already started shipping, you should get the $18 price tag or the $20 price tag, if you don't.

When a man who lost his home to a series of natural disasters in the 1980s was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, his parents took him to a hospital in Texas to find out if he had Alzheimer's disease.
Now, after a year of searching, they now have an update: the man has developed Alzheimer's disease.
The diagnosis is confirmed this morning in the American Journal of Medicine.
A team of researchers from the Mayo Clinic in the United States and the Mayo Clinic in the UK has been able to identify the man's DNA and find the mutations involved in his Alzheimer's disease.
Researchers have already isolated the genetic material they use in the research, known as the microsatellite loci, to determine if the gene responsible for the man's unusual symptoms is mutated in the man now with dementia.
The team of scientists from the Mayo Clinic and the American Institute of Neurology (AIN) in the US were able to identify the man, who had developed dementia through multiple sclerosis (MS), by sequencing the individual's DNA.
The discovery of the man's genetic material was made possible by the use of RNA sequencing technology developed at the University of Rochester.
The team used a method known as genome engineering to sequence the man's DNA and found the mutation within the individual's DNA, which is known as the Dendritic Neuronal.
"It's really important to look at the genetic material that's in the patient," said Dr. Richard O. Meelden, a professor at the Mayo Clinic and an expert on genome engineering.
The DNA from the man's mother was discovered in the brain in 2004 by Dr. William C. Meelden, a neurologist at Mayo Clinic. The man has not been identified and the team was able to locate the mutation in the gene responsible for his symptoms.
