AT&T deals quick links

AT&T deals are especially good if you're adding new lines, trading in, or switching carriers. With these offers, you can often save hundreds of dollars of the retail price of a new phone, and sometimes you can even get the phone for free. AT&T might not have quite the coverage Verizon does, but with these discounts and the generally cheaper pricing of its plans, your savings can start to add up.

Generally, AT&T deals entail purchasing the phone on an instalment plan and getting a data plan at a specific level (like AT&T's Unlimited Starter plan), then AT&T will give you monthly rebates toward the value of the phone. So, to get the maximum value from these deals, you'll want to be ready to stick with AT&T for the long haul - 36 months in fact, at which point you'll have received the full discount.

So, keep those details in mind as we guide you through all the best AT&T phone deals. We'll help you find the best savings on iPhones, Android phones, 5G phones, and even some accessories to go alongside them.

AT&T Black Friday specials

New line and phone purchase: get $200 bill credits at AT&T

New line and phone purchase: get $200 bill credits at AT&T
AT&T's headline Black Friday deal, in my opinion, is this $200-off plan deal. It's available on basically all devices right now and will get you a nice little monthly discount on your plan if you pick up a device alongside a new line on an unlimited data plan. Considering this stacks with the various other trade-in deals and so on, it's a very nice bonus that should be applicable to a lot of customers this Black Friday.

AT&T is throwing in a 10th gen iPad 10.9 and Apple Watch SE for just $1 per month each right now with eligible iPhone 16 devices. This Black Friday special stacks with the already-excellent existing deals on the iPhone 16 series that include massive trade-in rebates of up to $1,000 off. Overall, this is a superb bonus promotion but note that you do need to pay extra for the accessory cellular lines to claim this, so even if the devices are cheap you're still paying for a plan!

Quite possibly the best AT&T deal for iPhone fans on a budget - right now you can get the latest iPhone SE for just $2 per month alongside an unlimited data plan at the carrier. This is the cheapest this device has ever been at the carrier - with the iPhone SE 2022 previously listed at $5 per month. While it's not free, this particular promotion will get you the device for well under $100 over the duration of a 36-month plan.

Google Pixel 9: $10.99/mo with an unlimited plan at AT&T
Trade-in rebates on the most recent devices are usually commonplace with AT&T deals but the carrier has opted for a different approach with the latest Google Pixel 9. Right now, no trades are needed to get this device for just $11 per month on an unlimited plan, which is easily one of the strongest promotions for those who want a powerful device but don't have anything of value ready to hand over.

Google Pixel 9 Pro XL: free with a trade-in and unlimited plan at AT&T

Google Pixel 9 Pro XL: free with a trade-in and unlimited plan at AT&T
Probably the strongest trade-in AT&T deal of them all is the carrier's current promo on the Pixel 9 Pro XL. Despite its hefty upfront cost, the carrier is willing to let this one go for free with a trade-in of any Pixel device of any year. While you'll still need an unlimited plan, this is an exceptionally generous offer considering you also get the free storage upgrade as a preorder bonus.

If you like the look of AT&T's deal on the standard Galaxy S24 but are put off by the price tag, consider this deal on the Galaxy S24 FE instead. This new mid-range device is available for almost half the price and still features a really great chipset, display, and all the latest AI software features that the brand is really pushing right now. This is a really new device so this week's AT&T deal is extremely strong.

This week's AT&T deal on the Motorola Moto G Stylus is as close to a 'free phone' as you'll get at the carrier. At $1/mo, you'll be paying just $36 for this handset here, which features a 6.7-inch pOLED, 50MP camera, and a nifty little stylus. Is it a high-end device? Nope, but this isn't a bad deal if you don't care about getting a big-brand device and just want to save some cash.

Right now, the iPhone 12 is $600 at AT&T but you can space those payments out accordingly if you pick one up alongside a prepaid plan.
