The best iPhone 15 Plus deals for December 2024

You'll find all of this week's best iPhone 15 Plus deals rounded up into one page right here. There are some great options today if you're looking to save some cash on this device, which is positioned 'just right' between the entry-level iPhone 15 and the more premium 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max.

Generally speaking, the best iPhone 15 Plus deals have traditionally been locked behind trade-ins - something that's still common at some carriers and Apple itself. It remains one of the most reliable ways to get a discount but Verizon in particular has recently been offering flat discounts alongside new lines. The required plans can still be pretty pricey, however, especially over the duration of 36-months.

All in all, there are some great iPhone 15 Plus deals to consider today that can significantly cut your device's cost down to size - and it's well worth upgrading if you're eligible. With a refreshed design, a new Dynamic Island display, and a 48MP camera, the iPhone 15 Plus is a significant step up from the previous model in nearly every way.

Apple iPhone 15 Plus: up to $650 off with a trade-in at Apple
If you're looking for an unlocked device, buying your iPhone 15 Plus via Apple is currently the only choice. Buying a device outright can be pretty damn pricey but luckily the Apple online store runs its own trade-in program that gets you a relatively good rebate on your device. The current maximum rebate is $650 but that's with an iPhone 14 Pro Max. If you're handing over an iPhone 14 Plus you'll be looking at a saving of $470 if it's in good working condition.

iPhone 15 Plus deals: FAQ

Is the iPhone 15 Plus worth upgrading to?

• Inherits the A16 Bionic chip and 48MP camera from the 14 Pro
• New Dynamic Island display
• Refreshed design
• USB-C port

With the iPhone 15 Plus, we arguably have a device that finally matches up to its more premium 'Pro' counterparts in the range. Apple has still stuck with its usual formula of trickling down the most premium specs to the standard models, but the upgrades to the iPhone 15 Plus are definitely more significant than with the previous iteration.

For example, not only has the device had a refreshed design - the first significant revision since the iPhone 12 in 2020 - but it also loses the relatively large notch on the display in favor of the new 'Dynamic Island'. With these subtle changes, the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus arguably no longer look like last-gen devices.

Internally, the device inherits the excellent A16 Bionic chipset and 48MP camera from the iPhone 14 Pro. While not a huge leap forward in regards to new features, both these specs still hold up great for 2023 and provide more than enough grunt to make the device a joy to use day-to-day.

You do, however, miss out on a few of the headline features from the iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max if you go for the 15 Plus. For example, the Pro devices carry a slightly larger camera sensor, and in the case of the Max, a 5x optical zoom. The A17 Bionic Pro chipset inside is also super-charged for gaming performance and AI integration tasks like photo editing, voice transcription, and auto-correct. If performance in those types of tasks is important to you, then it could be worth considering going for one of the more premium devices.

Note that all the latest iPhone 15 devices now also include the ubiquitous USB-C port, which is handy. It's only the Pro models that utilize the quickest USB 3.0 data and charging speeds, however, with the iPhone 15 Plus supporting the older and slower USB 2.0 protocol.
