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.

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.

AT&T

Starting with AT&T, you can get the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro at no cost with eligible trade-in, and the iPhone Air for up to $830 off with eligible trade-in. Finally, the iPhone 17 Pro Max will be available at up to $1,100 off with eligible trade-in.

If you switch to AT&T from a different carrier, AT&T will pay off your phone balance at up to $800 off per line. AT&T also has the Apple Watch Series 11, Apple Watch SE 3, and Apple Watch Ultra 3 available for order. If you buy one, you can get $300 off the second.

Verizon

New and existing Verizon customers on the Unlimited Ultimate plan can get the iPhone 17 Pro at no cost, or up to $1,100 off the iPhone 17 lineup when trading in select smartphones in any condition.

In terms of watches, Verizon is offering a bundle deal when you buy any new iPhone 17 Pro on Unlimited Ultimate, you can get an Apple Watch SE 3 or Apple Watch Series 11 at no cost, or $500 off Apple Watch Ultra 3.

T-Mobile

  • iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro: No cost with eligible trade-in
  • iPhone Air: Up to $830 off with eligible trade-in
  • iPhone 17 Pro Max: Up to $1,100 off with eligible trade-in

T-Mobile's offers are nearly identical to AT&T's. You can get the iPhone 17 or iPhone 17 Pro at no cost when you trade in an old device and purchase the new device on an eligible unlimited plan. Otherwise, you can get the iPhone Air for up to $830 off or the iPhone 17 Pro Max for up to $1,100 off, both with eligible trade-in on unlimited plans.

For Apple Watches at T-Mobile, if you buy any new Apple Watch model, you can get $200 off the device when you add a watch line on an eligible plan.
