iPhone 15 Plus deals

If you're after a larger iPhone display without the premium price of the iPhone 16 Pro Max, the iPhone 15 Plus is the top choice. While the iPhone 15 Pro Max combines size and power, the iPhone 15 Plus lets you enjoy its glorious screen while keeping costs down. The iPhone 16e is Apple's best cheap iPhone, but the iPhone 15 offers a better camera and basically matches it across the board.

For a larger iPhone display without the premium price, the iPhone 15 Plus is the top choice, offering a glorious screen without breaking the bank like the iPhone 15 Pro Max.

You can buy it outright from retailers like JB Hi-Fi, The Good Guys and Amazon, and there's been few better times to grab it with the iPhone 17 series on the horizon and EOFY Apple sales across the nation. Vodafone is often the best telco for most phone plans thanks to its current double-data and AU$10 discount deal, but it currently doesn't stock the 15 plus. Therefore, if you're not buying outright and pairing it with one of our best SIM-only plans, Optus is your best bet.

Thankfully, Optus EOFY deals make its iPhone 15 Plus plans particularly attractive – offering two excellent plans for those prioritising value and a huge monthly data allowance. If you want to dive deeper into the phone itself, be sure to check out our comprehensive iPhone 15 Plus review.

Best iPhone 15 Plus plans: our picks

Best overall iPhone 15 Plus plan

iPhone 15 Plus (128GB) | 50GB data | 24 months | AU$102.29p/m (for 12 months, then AU$113.29 p/m)

Because Vodafone isn't stocking the iPhone 15 Plus, Optus is the best telco to go with for the iPhone 15 Plus – but its current EOFY deal sees it compete with even the best Vodafone plans. Hitting its small plan with a 20% discount brings it down from AU$55 p/m to just AU$44 p/m, while still offering a more-than-satisfactory 50GB of data. This plan connects customers to the Optus 5G network – the fastest in Australia. This 20% off deal ends on June 30 – remember to use the code YES20 to ensure 20% off your SIM plan.

Total cost over 24 months is AU$2,586.96

Best premium iPhone 15 Plus plan

iPhone 15 Plus (128GB) | 180GB data | 24 months | AU$110.29p/m (for 12 months, then AU$123.29p/m)

The Medium Choice Plus plan also benefits from the EOFY deal, with an AU$13 discount making it AU$52 p/m for the first 12 months (down from AU$65). This provides a massive 180GB of monthly data, plus unlimited standard talk and text in eligible destinations and daily roaming for an additional AU$5 a day. Remember to use the code YES20 to ensure 20% off your SIM plan.

Total cost over 24 months is AU$2,802.96

What are the new features for the iPhone 15 Plus?

Similar to the iPhone 15, the iPhone 15 Plus has gotten a raft of upgrades this year: Dynamic Island, a USB-C charging port, a more powerful processor and a seriously beefed up main camera. We’d argue that these changes make this generation of Apple’s Plus phone much more appealing than the iPhone 14 Plus that came before it.

Dynamic Island was exclusive to last year’s Pro models, but now it’s available on both the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus. If you’re unfamiliar with Dynamic Island, it’s the pill-shaped cutout where the camera notch used to be at the top of the screen. It can expand to turn into a notification centre of sorts, allowing you to use Spotify, check your Uber, see incoming calls and much more.

We’re happy to report that while the 15 Plus has kept the straight sides that have been a mainstay for iPhones over the past few years, Apple has softened the edges to make them a little more rounded. We think that’s particularly good for an iPhone of this size, as its 6.7-inch screen should feel more comfortable in your hands for longer periods. And while we’re talking about design, RIP to the Lightning charging port. Apple has finally embraced USB-C.

iPhones have housed 12MP cameras for a long time, but this year, finally, Apple has given the iPhone 15 Plus a 48MP sensor – it’s about time. A bigger sensor should give you better shots in all environments, but you might notice the biggest difference when taking photos in low light. Apple is also promising improved portrait photography and better results when using 2x zoom.

You can get the iPhone 15 Plus in pastel shades of pink, yellow, green and blue, and there’s also a black colour option for those who want something more neutral. While the iPhone 15 Plus launched at prices starting at AU$1,649, the 128GB model can now regularly be had for less than AU$1,400.
