Apple unveiled the iPhone 17 lineup in September 2025 and we're tracking new offers on these smartphones below. All major carriers have various discounts, offers, and savings on the iPhone 17, iPhone Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max, so be sure to look for more details in each carrier's section.
The newest iPhone is the iPhone 17e, which debuted in March 2026 with the A19 chip, Face ID, USB-C, a single-lens rear camera, and MagSafe. This is Apple's cheapest iPhone right now, coming in at $200 cheaper than the entry-level iPhone 17.
Carrier deals do have some downsides, in regards to how many stipulations come with obtaining the discounts. But if you're looking to sign up for a new contract, switch carriers, or buy multiple iPhones at once, you can likely find a few solid bargains at these companies.
In this guide, we'll break down offers by carriers, and also include a few sales related to refurbished devices. In regards to these sales, the best refurbished discounts are typically on older iPhone models, but you can still occasionally find refurbished sales on current-generation models as well.
