1. Today's best deals
2. FAQ

We've rounded up all of this week's best iPhone 15 deals into one easy to navigate list right here. Using this page, you'll easily be able to compare all your options at the big carriers, smaller prepaid carriers, and also for unlocked devices. Regardless of what you're looking for, we'll be able to tell you the cheapest ways to get your hands on these excellent flagship devices.

The best iPhone 15 deals usually revolve around trade-in rebates at the big carriers, although in recent months we have seen a few companies (notably Verizon) veer away from this model. Right now, for example, you don't actually need a trade to get a free iPhone 15 at the carrier alongside a new unlimited data plan. The catch here, of course, is that the plans can be pretty pricey in themselves, although note that options for unlocked devices also exist if you want to escape the lengthy plans.

As a brief overview, the iPhone 15 range features upgrades to the chipset and camera, and for the standard and plus device - the inclusion of the Dynamic Island display. As you'd imagine, most of the crucial upgrades are concentrated on the Pro models, although every entry has had a decent refresh - including the overall look of the range.

If you're interested in a full detailed run-down of each device, you can head straight on over to our in-depth iPhone 15 review, iPhone 15 Plus review, iPhone 15 Pro review, or iPhone 15 Pro Max review pages. Alternatively, those in a rush can find a quick overview of the range alongside device specs at the bottom of the page. You can also check out our main iPhone deals hub if you're interested in promotions on the older devices.

Note that the Boost plan in question here runs at $60 per month, which makes it a really cost-effective option overall if you're looking to switch up from the usual big carrier options. Included with the plan is 50GB of premium 5G data per month, global talk and text, and mobile hotspot.

Apple iPhone 15: up to $620 off with a trade-in at Apple
As always, the only option for new non-refurb unlocked iPhones is to buy your device directly from Apple. It's unfortunate not to have better choice - especially since the official retailer doesn't ever offer price cuts - but there is a great trade-in rebate you can take advantage of. Right now, the maximum saving is up to $620, which is enough to significantly reduce the upfront price of your device. This method is great if you want the freedom to pair up your device with one of the myriad prepaid carriers currently offering cheap cell phone plans.

iPhone 15 deals: FAQ

Is the iPhone 15 worth upgrading to?

  • iPhone 15 and 15 Plus get Dynamic Island
  • 48MP main camera across all models
  • A17 Bionic Pro chipset on the 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max
  • Titanium Chassis on the Pro models
  • All models have a slightly rounded-off design

Tough question - and one that's going to depend heavily on your device preferences and trade-in eligibility. If you're going to be able to get a good rebate - such as $600 to $800 off - then it's likely worth opting for an upgrade if your plan allows. As a whole, the new iPhone 15 range sports a good range of new features, hardware, and a design that's been more heavily refreshed than the last few iterations.

As you'd expect, the vast majority of upgrades are concentrated on the 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max but all models have had some significant tweaks for this generation. The two more premium handsets will now feature a Titanium chassis with a lower weight, a beefed-up camera system capable of 4K video at 60FPS and 5x optical zoom, and a shiny new A17 Pro chip that's supercharged for gaming and AI integration.

For the standard 15 and 15 Plus, you'll get the same 48MP main camera and A16 Bionic chipset from last year's iPhone 14 Pro, as well as the excellent Dynamic Island feature on the display. Note that across all devices, the Dynamic Island functionality has been improved to support more widgets and multitasking. All devices in the range also now sport slightly rounded-off edges on the back, which is a departure from the iPhone 13 and 14's more defined edges.

Which model does TechRadar recommend?

  • The Pro Max is usually our favorite device
  • The Pro models carry the biggest upgrades
  • Don't discount the standard iPhone 15, however

We'd probably recommend going for the Pro Max if you can get a good trade-in deal - might as well go for the best of the best, right? The Pro Max is definitely our favorite in the range since it carries the most significant upgrades. As with previous iterations, we currently rank it as the best iPhone money can buy.

It is worth noting, however, that the iPhone 15 is a fantastic device for most users. For example, the camera improvements and excellent A16 Bionic chipset still put it ahead of most of the competition for 2023 - and provide more than enough power to zip through all the daily tasks. Our only complaint? The 60Hz display and the fact the new USB-C port is only capable of USB 2.0 speeds. These aren't deal breakers, but they are behind the equivalent specs featured on the latest Galaxy S23, for example. If you're not bothered about super-fast charging and data speeds over cable or having a super high refresh rate on your display, however, then the standard iPhone 15 is a great choice.
