With the conclusion of Cyber Monday<\/a>, the whirlwind that is the Black Friday weekend has come to an end \u2013 but there are still some savvy deals on iPhones to be had.<\/p>\n

Each year, we see more and more retailers keep their discounts rolling between Black Friday and Christmas, and the likes of John Lewis, Very, Argos, O2 and Three have kept this trend going in 2025.<\/p>\n

As The Independent\u2019s senior tech critic, I have been reviewing Apple products and reporting on their prices for almost a decade, making me uniquely qualified to be your guide to the discounts on offer.<\/p>\n

Among them, the all-new iPhone 17 Pro Max has been hit with an unexpected early price drop. I have also unearthed further tempting offers across the full lineup of Apple\u2019s<\/a> devices \u2013 both to buy outright or snag via a considerable contract reduction.<\/p>\n

Keep reading for the lowdown on these offers and more right now.<\/p>\n

The best post-Black Friday iPhone deals<\/p>\n

Apple sure isn\u2019t messing around with its iPhone 17 Pro. It packs an A19 Pro chip, delivering the highest iPhone performance ever, as well as advanced vapour cooling, double ceramic shield, a triple 48-MP camera system for those perfect Instagrammable shots, plus iOS 26 with the seamless liquid glass interface. <\/p>\n

Tech critic David Phelan<\/a> awarded the 17 Pro a mighty five stars out of five in his review<\/a>, saying, \u201cIf you want the best iPhone ever, the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max are it. It\u2019s like Apple thought about all the boxes it could, and then ticked them all. Super-fast performance? Check. Best battery life yet? Check. A big leap forward in camera capabilities? Absolutely. And none of these metrics are coming from a low base.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mobile network Mozillion has slashed a small \u00a330 discount on Apple\u2019s latest flagship phone \u2013 that\u2019s already huge for something that only launched last year, but if you don\u2019t mind buying a good-as-new iPhone 17 Pro instead of a brand new one, you can save an even bigger \u00a3140. It still comes with the same accessories, and has at least 95 per cent battery, <\/p>\n

When tech critic David Phelan reviewed the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max<\/a> for IndyBest, he couldn\u2019t have been more impressed. \u201cIf you want the best iPhone ever, the iPhone 17 Pro <\/a>and Pro Max are it. It\u2019s like Apple thought about all the boxes it could, and then ticked them all. Super-fast performance? Check. Best battery life yet? Check. A big leap forward in camera capabilities? Absolutely. And none of these metrics are coming from a low base,\u201d he wrote. <\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a pretty impressive saving on the iPhone 17 with a 36-month contract. For 5G and unlimited minutes and texts, you\u2019ll pay \u00a349.20 per month in addition to an upfront cost of \u00a330. This saves you \u00a310 a month, or \u00a3360 over the full 36 months. In his review of the iPhone 17<\/a>, tech critic David Phelan <\/a>noted excellent performance and the fast refresh rate for a \u201csmooth viewing experience at all times\u201d.<\/p>\n

This is another standout deal on the iPhone 17, this time at Carphone Warehouse. There\u2019s an upfront cost of \u00a3159 and then a 24-month contract is \u00a329.99 a month. This contract with ID mobile includes 500GB data, unlimited calls and texts as well as access to Three\u2019s network for top-speed browsing.<\/p>\n

The iPhone 17 Pro is the best iPhone ever, according to our tech critic (David Phelan\/The Independent)<\/p>\n

This is a good offer on an iPhone 17 Pro contract. You\u2019ll pay \u00a343.99 per month and \u00a3119 up front for Apple\u2019s top-tier phone. Crunch the numbers, and it\u2019s an impressive offer: after the \u00a31,099 cost of the handset itself, you\u2019re left paying about \u00a35 per month for a whopping 500GB of data. That\u2019s an enormous monthly allowance for 4K streaming and tethering on Apple\u2019s finest device. <\/p>\n

\u201cApple\u2019s phones have immaculate build quality, exceptional components and chic design. Add in the company\u2019s intuitive interface, and you have an irresistible combination,\u201d added Phelan. You\u2019ll likely not be on the fence about taking the plunge now. <\/p>\n

Got your eye on the sparkly new iPhone 17 Pro Max? I\u2019ve found a deal not to be missed. ID mobile, which piggybacks Three\u2019s network, is offering the speced-up model with 256GB of storage, 500GB data, unlimited minutes and texts for \u00a399 upfront and \u00a354.99 per month \u2013 saving you \u00a348 over the 24-month contract period.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve found a deal at Very on \u201cthe most beautiful phone yet\u201d, according to tech critic David Phelan<\/a>, the iPhone Air. You can save almost \u00a3100 on the all-new smartphone from Apple, which David in his iPhone Air review<\/a> said \u201cis not a case of style over substance\u201d. He wrote, \u201cThough it is certainly stylish, its eye-catching looks are matched by strong performance and good battery life\u201d.<\/p>\n

If you’ve been on the hunt for an iPhone 16 pro max and come up short, I’ve found a top deal. To access it, you’ll need to toggle the network to Three Mobile in the filter settings on the Uswitch website and scroll to the seventh option. The 16 pro max is so popular that it’s gone out of stock at multiple retailers, including Three. That means you can only access this stellar contract with the network via Three’s partnership with Uswitch. The device retails for \u00a31,199, meaning that this 36-month contract supplies your data, minutes, and texts for about \u00a310 per month. In tech expert Andrew Griffin<\/a>‘s review of the iPhone 16 pro max<\/a>, he dubbed it a “powerful, practical and professional smartphone”.<\/p>\n

iPhone 15 Plus 5G 128GB SIM Free: Was \u00a3699, now \u00a3649, Argos.co.uk<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for a more flexible option, Argos has dropped the price of the iPhone 15 Plus with 128GB to \u00a3649. This is a great offer if you\u2019d rather shop around for a contract that suits you later on. Featuring a ceramic shield, the iPhone 15 Plus is resilient to knocks and scrapes, plus it\u2019s splash and water-proof, as well as dust-resistant. Our tech critic, David Phelan<\/a>, said in his iPhone 15 Plus<\/a> review that the \u201c<\/strong>brighter screen here looks very good\u201d and praised the camera for \u201cdelivering sensational images with zero effort\u201d. <\/p>\n

Want an iPhone for less? The aluminium iPhone 15 oozes top-notch features without the eye-watering price tag of the latest models. It packs a dual 48MP camera for detailed snaps, a super-vibrant 6.1in screen, and it was the first non-Pro iPhone to include the game-changing dynamic island interface.<\/p>\n

In his iPhone 15 review<\/a>, tech critic David Phelan<\/a> said this model was \u201ca much more extensive upgrade, compared with the one from the iPhone 13 to the iPhone 14\u201d. <\/p>\n

Looking for an iPhone without breaking the bank? Opt for this Apple iPhone 14, which delivers an eye-pleasing Super Retina XDR 6.1\u2011inch display and 12 MP dual camera with Photonic Engine, built for low-light recording and 4K HDR video. If that wasn\u2019t enough, you\u2019ve got an A15 Bionic chip, which can handle nearly everything you can throw at it, and the battery can last up to 20 hours between charges, so you can keep going and going. <\/p>\n

Tech critic David Phelan<\/a> took the iPhone 14 plus for a test review and said: \u201cThe iPhone 14 plus <\/a>is a handsome, surprisingly light phone with a gorgeous screen and outstanding performance. The bigger battery means it lasts and lasts, however hard you push it. Although it doesn\u2019t have the third camera or always-on screen of the pro max, it is an accomplished, appealing phone at a great price.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nabbed a new iPhone 17 pro max this weekend? If you want to avoid the disaster of a smashed screen, this case made it into tech critic David Phelan<\/a>\u2019s review of the best iPhone 17 cases<\/a>. He noted that it \u201cfeels good: lightweight but strong\u201d, and added that \u201cApple says the new case has a scratch-resistant coating and won\u2019t turn yellow\u201d. It currently has \u00a310 off at Currys and Amazon<\/a>.<\/p>\n

When do Black Friday sales end?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Most brands and retailers, including tech heavyweights like Currys<\/a>, John Lewis, Very and Amazon<\/a>, continue their Black Friday throughout the weekend, into Cyber Monday (1 December) and often beyond. So whether you\u2019re after a new iPhone or something else, there\u2019s plenty of time to shop around. <\/p>\n

What is the difference between Black Friday and Cyber Monday?<\/p>\n

Black Friday, which took place on 28 November 2025, kicked off the holiday shopping season with discounts across both stores and online, spanning tech, fashion, home appliances and more. Cyber Monday (1 December) is technically the final day of the sales weekend but, as has become a regular occurrence, many retailers keep their discounts going in the days and weeks that follow. <\/p>\n

Where are the best iPhone deals?<\/p>\n

Network providers like O2, Vodafone and EE are competing for your business with new contracts. While the total cost of the phone itself won\u2019t change, a good Black Friday offer will sweeten the deal with bonuses such as a lower upfront cost, a reduced monthly payment for a limited time, extra monthly data or subscriptions to services like Apple TV+<\/a>. <\/p>\n

However, you should look at the iPhone 16 or older for the best deals. Last year\u2019s models are now primed for their first significant price cuts. The iPhone 16 Pro is still a brilliant smartphone that\u2019s more than powerful enough for anyone, and we could see some enticing discounts this year.<\/p>\n

As always, the IndyBest team and I are on hand to make sure you\u2019re first to know about the latest discounts, as we\u2019ll be tracking all the best post-Black Friday Apple offers<\/a> the moment they drop.<\/p>\n

How I selected the best iPhone deals<\/strong><\/p>\n

When searching for the best iPhone deals, I check across all the major tech retailers including Currys, Argos, Amazon, John Lewis and more. I’ll always bring you the best price from a trusted retailer and, where multiple stores are offering the same price, I’ll look at other perks like free delivery or a longer warranty.<\/p>\n

Some retailers play tricks to make a deal seem better than it is, for example, by hiking the price right before sales events so the reduction seems bigger. That’s why I use price tracking websites like PriceRunner, PriceSpy and Camelcamelcamel to make sure the discount is really as good as it looks.<\/p>\n

How to avoid bad deals<\/strong><\/p>\n

It pays to do a bit of research before you hit the checkout to ensure you\u2019re getting the best deal available, and that it\u2019s not too good to be true. With this in mind, I\u2019d always recommend doing a quick price comparison across different retailers.
