New customers: $200 eGift card with switch at Verizon
If you've been thinking about making the switch, then now's a great time to consider jumping over to Verizon. The carrier is currently offering a handy $200 gift card for new customers with an eligible smartphone purchase and an unlimited plan. Not only is this a great little gift that can be used to offset any plan bills, but it's a promotion that technically stacks with all the other excellent Verizon Black Friday deals currently available below.

Apple iPhone 17: free with a new unlimited line, plus free Apple Watch and iPad at Verizon
Here's Verizon's headline Black Friday deal on the excellent iPhone 17. Not only can you get the device for free with a new line on one of the carrier's unlimited plans, but you can also throw in a free iPad and Apple Watch. A few caveats apply here - like you'll need to take out cellular lines on those accessories to claim them. With that said, however, you don't need to trade-in for the free phone here and it's also eligible on the cheaper myPlan options at Verizon. Previously, you needed the really high-end plans to get a free iPhone 17, so this is a fantastic deal.

While you'll have to have corresponding cellular lines to claim your accessories here, no trade-ins are needed at all on any of the free devices, which again makes this a fantastic option for most users.

Another similar deal, this time on the excellent Google Pixel 10. As with the Galaxy S25 and iPhone 17 deal above, you can get this device for free without a trade-in on any of the carrier's myPlan unlimited plans right now. If you want some cheap accessories, then make sure you bundle in the free tablet and Pixel Watch that's also being offered. Note, you will have to take cellular lines out on those accessories to claim them, however.

Apple iPhone 17 Pro: free with a new unlimited line at Verizon
Moving on to the iPhone 17 Pro, Verizon's current Black Friday deal lets you take this device home for free without the usual trade-in criteria. You will still need a new line on the carrier's higher-end Ultimate unlimited plan, but this is a huge $30 per month saving on this stunning flagship. Unfortunately, you can't bundle in a free iPad and Apple Watch here (like with the standard iPhone 17), but this is still one of the best Verizon deals yet on a device that we rate massively.

Want to go big? Verizon's current Black Friday deal on the iPhone 17 Pro Max doesn't let you take this absurdly pricey device home for free, but the $28/mo discount that you can get on this device right now with a plan is roughly equivalent in value to the other iPhone deals this week. At just $5 per month, this is a very cheap price indeed to pay for such a high-end phone - although note, you will need a line on the Ultimate plan to be eligible here.
