There’s a slew of new iPhones you order beginning Friday, September 12, and if you’re already scouting out ways to buy them, we have your back. Whether it’s directly from Apple, from your go-to retailer, or your carrier, there are loads of way to get yourself a new phone
Theoretically, the new iPhone 17 and all its siblings are going to be available to pre-order on September 12, with shipping starting a week later, September 19. Technically, however, you can already go through the motions to prepare your purchase and only be one click away from sending off your pre-order in a couple of days. So let’s get to it.
Best iPhone 17 deals
Apple
The iPhone 17 is available in a bunch of gorgeous colors, it’s even more scratch-resistant, and features an A19 chip. The phone has a 48MP ultra-wide camera on the rear and an 18MP Center Stage selfie cam. It now has a ProMotion display with always-on and longer battery life. It starts at 256GB. In short, it’s a massive upgrade.
Get the iPhone 17 at Apple
The unlocked iPhone 17 has a starting price of $829 at Apple, but you can get up to $700 off with a trade-in (though most people will get around $400). You will also get an extra $30 discount if you activate the phone with one of the available carriers — AT&T, Boost Mobile, T-Mobile, or Verizon. All in all, you’ll save hundreds on the price as long as you have a new-ish phone to trade in.
The process is easy. Head over to the Apple Store online or the Apple Store app, and select the iPhone 17. Then you can click the “Get Ready” button to choose your color and storage options, trade-in details, and choose your carrier. Then all you’ll need to do is hit purchase on Friday morning.
