Best iPhone 15 launch deals: AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, and more

Apple just took to the stage to reveal the all-new iPhone 15 series, and now you can lock-in your order on the new handsets. If you’re looking to secure yourself the best deal, you’ve come to the right place. Combing through all of the different carrier and retailer discounts, below you’ll find all of the best iPhone 15 launch day deals from AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, and many other providers.

iPhone 15 is now live!

This time around, Apple is sticking to last year’s formula with four different handsets that all rest under the 15 series. Headlining are the iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max, both of which are with a hearty helping of new features. USB-C is the star of the show this year, and both of these higher-end devices boast the universal port alongside support for up to 10Gb/s transfer speeds. But there’s also far more to the story for the newest devices, both of which come powered by the all-new A17 Pro chip. There’s a refreshed Action button on the side of the case in place of the mute switch, as well as an entirely new titanium finish that comes in one of four styles.

The iPhone 15 and 15 Plus are also seeing some upgrades over last year’s baseline models. These are largely getting a lot of the upgrades from the iPhone 14 Pro series last year, with the Dynamic Island now making the cut alongside the A16 Bionic chip. There’s USB-C just like the Pro counterparts, too.

Orders are now shipping, and you’ll find all of the best iPhone 15 launch day deals below.

Best iPhone 15 pre-order deals

Verizon

First up, we have Verizon stepping in to set the pace with some iPhone 15 launch deals that vary based on what plan you have from the carrier. The main discount here is going to be for both new and existing customers looking to add a line to an Unlimited Ultimate plan. Doing so while also trading in any old iPhone in any condition will score you an iPhone 15 Pro for free. Or if you’re looking for one of the other new Apple handsets, there’s up to $1,000 back with this promotion. So you can score one of the more affordable handsets at no cost or use that cash towards the higher-end 15 Pro Max.

If you’re on the Unlimited Plus or Unlimited Welcome plans, you can get $830 or $415 off the new iPhone 15 lineup, respectively. There’s still the requirement to trade in a device, with any old iPhone being good enough to secure some added savings on the new releases.

All of these savings apply via monthly bill credits. Get the full scoop direct from Verizon, too.

AT&T

Not letting Verizon have all of the fun, AT&T is also delivering some of the best iPhone 15 launch deals. Getting a free iPhone 15 Pro seems to be this year’s most popular offer, and AT&T is effectively matching that with up to $1,000 back when trading in an existing smartphone. It doesn’t have to be an iPhone like with other promotions, so those of you moving over from Android will be right at home. The same savings applies to the iPhone 15 Pro Max.

All of these deals apply via 36-month bill credits, and you’ll have to open a new line on an unlimited plan or upgrade to lock in the savings.

T-Mobile

We haven’t forgotten about the Uncarrier, as T-Mobile is also stepping in to offer some of the best iPhone 15 launch deals this year. Much like its contract-bound competitors, T-Mobile focuses on trade-in promotions for scoring the new device. The savings start with an entirely free iPhone 15 Pro after you’ve traded in an eligible device on either of the company’s Go5G Plus or Go5G Next plans. You can also swap the 15 Pro for any of Apple’s other new devices and take up to $1,000 off.

This is a bit different than Verizon’s similar offer, with one notable distinction being that you don’t have to add a new line. Anyone on those plans can cash in, but T-Mobile drops the “any iPhone in any condition” tidbit that makes that other promotion so compelling.

If you’re on one of T-Mobile’s other plans, the best iPhone 15 launch deals carry over to offer as much as $650 off for Magenta MAX enrollees. That value drops down to $350 off for the Go5G plan and then down to $200 for all other T-Mobile plans. The same trade-in requirement applies, too.

All of these savings apply via 24-month bill credits.

If you’re looking to bring home more than just a single iPhone 15, the best pre-order deals also carry over to a buy one, get one $700 off promotion. When you add a line to almost any T-Mobile plan, you’ll be able to get a second handset on the house.

Best Buy

Best Buy is one retailer that will be offering a chance to score all of the different iPhone 15 pre-order deals in one place. While we’re not entirely sure if there will be any exclusive discounts that you can’t find at other places, it’ll be a one-stop hub for checking out all of the different ways to save. But with how aggressive the company has been lately with its higher-tier My Best Buy memberships, I wouldn’t be surprised to see some savings for those who are paid subscribers.

Boost Infinite

If you’re looking for something outside of the usual Verizon, AT&T, or Verizon offers, then Boost is offering one of the best iPhone 15 pre-order deals. Right now, you’ll be able to score iPhone 15 Pro on one of the company’s unlimited plans for $60 a month. It’s part of Boost Infinite Access for iPhone offer, which delivers a similar approach to Apple’s own in-house iPhone Upgrade Program. There’s notably no trade-in required, so those looking to just score one of the new devices without turning anything back in will find this to be one of the better promotions live – though each annual upgrade requires you to hand the old iPhone back.

As for the plan itself, Boost Infinite offers unlimited talk, text, and 5G data. If you’re roaming to Mexico or Canada, there’s a 5GB data cap with the same unending talk and text.
