You can get an iPhone 16 for just $5/mo at Verizon without a trade in

Verizon has just surprised us with another excellent round of iPhone 16 deals - just a day after these devices were officially released. After a strong round of initial preorder promotions, Verizon's current crop of deals now offers a compelling choice for those who want to avoid the usual trade-in rebates. 

For a limited time, you can save up to $655 on any device in the latest iPhone 16 range when you pick one up with a new line on an eligible unlimited data plan. That means the standard iPhone 16 can be had for as little as $5/mo over 36 months, the iPhone 16 Pro and Plus for $10/mo, and the iPhone 16 Pro Max for just $15/mo. 

These iPhone 16 deals at Verizon are available with the premium Ultimate Unlimited plan, and in the case of the standard iPhone 16, with the Unlimited Plus plan too. That means the iPhone 16 is the obvious pick right now for those who want a decently priced device on a more reasonably priced unlimited plan.

Note that these iPhone 16 deals at Verizon are part of a limited-time-only flash sale at the carrier and will only be available until the end of the month. If you're looking to bag a device ahead of Black Friday, then this is your best chance to get a non-trade-in discount this side of November.

Finally, Verizon's iPhone 16 deals also apply to the stunning iPhone 16 Pro Max.

At $15/mo, this is currently the cheapest non-trade-in iPhone 16 Pro Max deal on the market, although the plan itself can cost a pretty penny.

If you're a fan of slimmer bezels, both the iPhone iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max feature slightly bigger 6.3-inch and 6.9-inch displays, which are slightly bigger than the ones on the previous generation. Other Pro-exclusive upgrades include 4K video at 120FPS (perfect for slow motion), a 48MP wide angle lens, and a 5x telephoto zoom.
