Best Black Friday iPhone deals 2025: how to get a free iPhone 17 Pro Max, iPad, or a cheap phone today

Today’s best Black Friday iPhone deals cover everything from the latest iPhone 17 series to much cheaper, older, but still great devices. In short, there’s plenty to consider today if you’re looking to score that perfect upgrade.

I’ve rounded up all of today’s best Black Friday iPhone deals into one neat little package right below, including major carriers, prepaid, and unlocked options. That’s including major promotions from the likes of T-Mobile, Verizon, and the official Apple Store, to name just a few.

Highlights today include a free iPhone 17 Pro Max without a trade-in at Verizon, free iPads and Apple Watches at T-Mobile, and discounts of up to $1,100 at AT&T. Apple’s big seasonal ‘gifting’ event is also live now, with $75 gift cards being included with all iPhone 16 purchases. Annoyingly, Apple’s Black Friday deal does not extend to the latest iPhone 17 series – typical Apple!

With that said, as someone who tracks the best iPhone deals all year round, I can confidently tell you that today’s promotions are easily the best of 2025. As always, however, to get the biggest discounts, you will need either a trade-in or an unlimited plan at one of the major carriers. I’ve made sure to break down the various eligibility criteria and provide buying tips and advice where I can, too.

• Apple: $75 gift card, plus up to $670 w/ trade on iPhone 16
• AT&T: $1,100 off w/ trade-in, plus $200 off plan
• Best Buy: up to $1,000 off iPhone 17, Galaxy, Pixel
• Mint Mobile: $800 off Pixel 10 and cheap plans
• T-Mobile: free iPhone 17 Pro, iPad, and Watch w/ plan
• Verizon: free iPhone 17 Pro Max, iPad, and Watch w/ plan
• Visible Wireless: unlimited data from $19/mo

For example, you could trade in an old device for a discount of up to $670 on an unlocked iPhone 17 at Apple, then port that over to a cheaper carrier. There are a few excellent options on the market right now, thanks to today’s Black Friday deals, which I’ve included just below.
