iPhone 13 (128GB) | 80GB data | 24 months | AU$101.20p/m (opens in new tab)

Vodafone is the cheapest place to get the iPhone 13 if you’re buying from one of the big three telcos. We’d recommend pairing the phone with Vodafone’s AU$45 Lite+ plan (opens in new tab) to set yourself up with 80GB of data a month – on a 24-month contract, that’ll see you pay AU$101.20 each billing. If you’re happy with just 40GB of data, you can choose the AU$40 Lite plan (opens in new tab) and save AU$5 each month.

We’d recommend pairing the phone with Vodafone’s Lite+ plan (opens in new tab), which will set you up with 80GB of data for AU$97.04 a month on a 24-month contract. By comparison, Optus’ cheapest plan gets you 20GB of data for AU$92.04, so you’re getting real value for money out of Vodafone.

It’s AU$10 less than Optus’ equivalent plan, but keep in mind that coverage might not be as strong in certain regions.
