Best iPhone 13 deals
Most retailers and carriers, including Apple itself, are offering great deals on the iPhone 13. If you have an older iPhone that you're looking to trade in, you can save hundreds on a new model, or you can save with special offers from carriers. We've rounded up some of the best deals out there right now.
We'll update this page as new offers become available, so check back if your carrier or preferred retailer isn't listed below.
Use Apple's trade-in service and save hundreds on your iPhone 13 purchase. Though its site quotes up to $620 off right now, the higher amounts are for folks handing over a model from the newer iPhone 14 or 15 series, which you're unlikely to be doing when buying an iPhone 13. The highest price paid for an older model is $370 for the iPhone 12 Pro Max or $220 for the standard iPhone 12. If you're financing the purchase, Apple will apply the trade-in amount as a credit after it has inspected the device you send in, or it'll refund the trade-in amount to your original payment method if you paid in full upfront.
An iPhone 13 will set you back $17.50 per month on top of your plan at AT&T right now, but you can trade in your old device and get credits toward your bill. Apple's iPhones often bring in the best cash, but you can trade in devices from Samsung and other companies, too.
T-Mobile is offering multiple deals on the iPhone 13, including a few ways to get your hands on one for free. Those adding a new line can get one for free when they either switch over their existing number from another carrier, or with an eligible trade-in. You can also save $315 with just a new line, or buy one and get $700 off another with at least one new line.
Buying a new, unlocked iPhone 13 at Best Buy can net you $75 in savings, but you can get up to $225 off on top of that when you trade in an older phone. You will get three free months of Apple TV Plus, Apple Fitness and Apple Music and four free months of Apple Arcade.
