The best Vodafone mobile plans in Australia 2026

Vodafone Small plan | 120GB data | AU$39 p/m(first 12 months, then AU$53p/m)

This current deal on Vodafone’s Small plan is one of the best phone plan options on the market, even when considering the best SIM-only plans from MVNOs. You get double the data when you sign up online, and you'll lock in a discounted rate for a whole year. Plus, on top of a solid monthly data pool, this plan also provides unlimited international texts.

Total cost over 24 months: AU$1,104

iPhone 17 (256GB) | 120GB data | 24 months | AU$97.29 p/m(first 12 months, then AU$111.29p/m)

If you're in the market for an iPhone 17, pairing it with the Vodafone Small Plan offers a significant price advantage, especially with the current double data and reduced price. In our iPhone 17 review we called it 'the best-value iPhone ever,' and this phone plan further enhances that.

Total cost over 24 months is AU$2,502.96

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra (256GB) | 120GB data | 24 months | AU$107.70 p/m(first 12 months, then AU$121.70 p/m)

Curiously, Samsung isn't selling the standard S25 anymore, so I've no option really but to select the S25 Ultra as its replacement. One of the most powerful Android phones around right now, the S25 Ultra delivers on all counts: camera, screen, features and more. Vodafone has knocked $500 off the phone's RRP, along with the savings on the SIM plan.

Total cost over 24 months is AU$2,752.80

iPhone 16e (128GB) | 120GB data | 24 months | AU$63.95 p/m(first 12 months, then AU$77.95 p/m)

The iPhone 16e is the best cheap iPhone – worth the extra cost compared to the iPhone 13 and a better buy in 2026 compared to a discounted iPhone 15. Vodafone has knocked AU$400 off the phone's RRP, which combined with a fantastically low monthly charge for the SIM plan, makes this is a great option for those with a smaller budget.

Total cost over 24 months is AU$1,702.80

Samsung Galaxy A56 (128GB) | 120GB data | 24 months | AU$68.12 p/m(first 12 months, then AU$82.12 p/m)

The Samsung Galaxy A56 is currently the best budget phone on the market – improving on its predecessor in every way and offering everything the average person wants from a phone.

Total cost over 24 months is AU$1,802.88

iPhone 17 Pro Max (256GB) | 120GB data | 24 months | AU$130.62 p/m(first 12 months, then AU$144.62 p/m)

Snagging the best phone Apple has ever made and pairing it with Vodafone's Small plan is admittedly a costly endeavour (and that's before you think about increasing the storage!) but it really is a formidable device, and I think the 120GB of monthly data included with the Small plan will be more than enough for most people. One of the greatest phones we've ever reviewed, it offers everything we love about Apple on a massive 6.9-inch screen. Check out our full iPhone 17 Pro Max review for more details.

Total cost over 24 months is AU$3,302.88

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 | 120GB | 24 months | AU$145.20p/m (first 12 months, then AU$159.20 p/m)

Since I've already highlighted the Galaxy S25 Ultra further up this page, the Z Fold 7 deserves a mention here as the best premium pick. This is easily the best foldable phone around right now, exhibiting a gorgeous and slim design, fantastic internal and external screens and highly capable cameras.

Total cost over 24 months is AU$3,652.80
