Apple iPhone 16 Pro: free with a new unlimited line, plus four lines for $25/mo each at Verizon
Verizon has just posted what's easily one of its best deals yet on the excellent iPhone 16 Pro. Firstly, you can get this device (which is still worth $1,000) for free alongside a new unlimited data line. That's a great deal, albeit one that we've seen the carrier feature previously. What is new, however, is that this particular promo is now available on the carrier's budget-friendly Welcome Unlimited plan - which means you can get up to four devices for free alongside a plan that costs just $25/mo per line($100 in total).

Apple iPhone 16: free with a new line, plus free iPad and Apple Watch at Verizon

Apple iPhone 16: free with a new line, plus free iPad and Apple Watch at Verizon
And, if you'd prefer to get your hands on the standard iPhone 16, then the good news is that you can also get this device for free alongside a new line on an unlimited plan at Verizon right now. Even better still, the carrier is also throwing in a free iPad and Apple Watch SE currently as welcome gifts, although note that accessory cellular lines are required for eligibility ($15/mo extra).

Apple iPhone 16 series: up to $1,000 off with a trade-in, plus $200 off when you order online at AT&T
AT&T's iPhone 16 deals have remained strong these past few months with excellent discounts across the entire range. For example, not only can you get a massive trade-in rebate of up to $1,000 on the Pro devices right now but AT&T is also throwing in an additional $200 saving in bill credits when you order online. All in all, a strong option with the only serious caveat being that an unlimited plan is required.

Apple iPhone 16 Plus: $11/mo with an unlimited plan, plus $200 in bill credits at AT&T

Apple iPhone 16 Plus: $11/mo with an unlimited plan, plus $200 in bill credits at AT&T
A slight exception to the above iPhone 16 deals at AT&T is the carrier's current promotion on the iPhone 16 Plus. Right now, you don't even need to trade-in to get this device for just $10.99 alongside an unlimited data plan. This outlier is a great choice if you're coming over to the carrier but don't have a decent device ready to hand over. In addition, you can also get a $200 off in bill credits when you order online this week.

Apple iPhone 16 series: save up to $650 off with a trade-in at Apple

Apple iPhone 16 series: save up to $650 off with a trade-in at Apple
Looking for unlocked iPhone 16 deals? Unfortunately you're pretty limited as Apple is the sole retailer for brand new devices without the usual carrier plan. It's not all bad news, however, as the official Apple Store runs its own trade-in program that you can use to get up to $650 off any of the devices in the new iPhone 16 range. This isn't a ground-breaking deal by any stretch of the imagination, but it's enough to get a significant discount without signing up for a three-year plan so we'll take it.

Apple iPhone 16 series: one year of service free at Boost Mobile

Apple iPhone 16 series: one year of service free at Boost Mobile
This is the first of Boost Mobile's excellent iPhone 16 deals. Right now, the carrier offers a full year of service for free with any of the latest iPhone 16 models. This particular deal is great for those simply looking to buy a device outright and it applies to the carrier's entry-level $25/mo unlimited data plan for a total saving of $300. If you'd prefer to opt for a more premium plan, then you can instead carry that saving over to the $50/mo Unlimited+ plan or the $60/mo Unlimited Premium plan, reducing the monthly cost significantly.

Apple iPhone 16 Pro: phone and unlimited data plan for $65/mo at Boost Mobile

Apple iPhone 16 Pro: phone and unlimited data plan for $65/mo at Boost Mobile
One of the best iPhone 16 deals on the market right now is the Boost Infinite Access for iPhone plan - an all-inclusive option at the prepaid carrier that bundles up a device and unlimited plan for just $65/mo. The device in question here is the excellent iPhone 16 Pro so this is an exceptional deal overall if you're happy to go with a more basic unlimited plan versus the usual options at the major carriers. Other devices in the iPhone 16 range are also available with the Boost Infinite Access for iPhone plan but you'll have to pay a bit extra for the Pro Max in particular.

Apple iPhone 16 series: $150 rebate with plan at Red Pocket

Apple iPhone 16 series: $150 rebate with plan at Red Pocket
Red Pocket could be another good choice for iPhone 16 deals this week if you're looking to pair up your device with a cheap prepaid plan. Right now, both new and existing customers can get a decent $150 rebate after three months if they pick up a device alongside an autopay plan. Overall, not an amazing deal considering Red Pocket was offering $300 off in the initial preorders phase but still one of the more cost-effective options on the market currently considering how cheap this carrier's plans are.

What are the key features for the iPhone 16?

Apple iPhone 16

(Image credit: Aplpe)
  • New A18 and A18 Pro chips
  • Massive focus on new AI-integrated features
  • 48MP "Fusion" camera
  • Physical camera control function

Both the iPhone 16 and 16 Pro represent fairly substantial upgrades compared to the previous models. From the new A18 series chips built from the ground up for AI integration to the improved cameras, these devices offer plenty of enticing new features.

First up, the A18 Series chipsets come with the debut of 'Apple Intelligence', which, as the name suggests, is a whole suite of new AI features across the entire range of existing Apple apps. Think ChatGPT-like language models for texts or emails, image and emoji generators, and a new 'Visual Intelligence' app that is just like Google Lens.

In terms of hardware, the iPhone 16 series not only features new chipsets but also an improved camera with a new physical camera control button that directly interacts with the camera app. Apple is calling the new 48MP main camera the 'Fusion camera' since it can seamlessly switch between high-resolution images and more storage-friendly images, plus Stereoscopic capture for Apple Vision Pro.

The iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max feature slightly bigger 6.3-inch and 6.9-inch displays with slimmer bezels versus their predecessors. The main upgrades for the Pro models this year include the option for 4K video at 120FPS (perfect for slow motion) as well as the usual 48MP wide angle lens and 5x telephoto (12MP and 2x on the standard iPhone 16).
