The amount you’ll pay for a new iPhone depends almost entirely upon where you purchase it. iPhones, and most other smartphones for that matter, are available for purchase directly from the major cellular carriers. Usually, you need to purchase a plan from that carrier in order to get whatever phone deal they’re currently running.
You can also purchase a new iPhone directly from Apple, or another retailer like Best Buy or Walmart. In those instances, you’re generally purchasing an unlocked phone you could take to any wireless service provider.
The most recent iPhone, the iPhone 14, comes in several different models: iPhone 14, iPhone 14 pro, iPhone 14 pro max, and iPhone 14 plus. Each features iOS 16, eSIM compatibility, a USB-C charging port, and a variety of other new perks.
Ready to trade in last year's iPhone for the latest and greatest? Let’s look at how much it might cost you to get a new iPhone 14, in all of its variants, from different retailers.
Apple iPhone deals are not the cheapest on the block, but you can always trade-in your old iPhone — or an Android device like the most recent Samsung Galaxy — to bring the price down. At the moment, here are their deals:
iPhone 14: Starting at $799
iPhone 14 Plus: Starting at $899
iPhone 14 Pro: Starting at $999
iPhone 14 Pro Max: Starting at $1099
You can also purchase carrier-specific deals directly through Apple.
All prices listed are for the smallest storage capacity of the given model. Naturally, these carriers allow trade-ins as well to offset the cost, and a valuable trade-in can significantly reduce the price. All of these deals are contingent upon beginning a wireless plan with the given carrier.
