How to get an iPhone on Prime Day (because Amazon sure isn't helping)
We're probably less than two months away from the arrival of new iPhones. And yet, on this Prime Day 2022, finding a great iPhone deal on any of the current iPhones is more complicated than you might expect. In fact, over at Amazon, not only are there zero iPhone deals at the time of this writing but the stock there is mainly diminished. So instead, I suggest visiting Best Buy or one of the U.S. carriers. In recent years, many carriers have been offering the same discounts on current and new customers, especially with trade-ins.
The iPhone SE isn't the sexiest Apple handset, but it's the newest one on the market, having arrived earlier this year. Available in white, black, and (PRODUCT)RED, you can find slight deals on this model if you look hard enough. A great starting point is through Verizon.
Featuring an A15 Bionic chip and 5.4-inch OLED screen, the iPhone 13 mini offers fabulous features in a smaller package. It's available in six different color options and three different storage choices from 128GB to 512GB. Check out all U.S. carriers for possible deals — and Best Buy.
Our favorite iPhone, the iPhone 13, has a 6.1-inch edge-to-edge display and is powered by the same A15 Bionic as its little sibling. Like the iPhone mini, it's available in Starlight, Midnight, (PRODUCT)RED, blue, pink, and new in 2022: green. We absolutely loved the iPhone 13 when we reviewed it — and you will too!
While only a little bigger than the iPhone 13, the iPhone 13 Pro packs some extra goodies under the hood. There's a LiDAR scanner, 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR display with ProMotion, and extra battery life. It's also available with a massive 1TB storage option, quadrupling the previous max storage option. U.S. carriers are the best place to consider buying the Pro model right now.
The massive iPhone 13 Pro Max features the same specs as the smaller Pro, albeit with a larger screen. It's available in all the same colors and you can choose from the same storage options as its smaller sibling. Just be ready to have to use two hands to use it.
When it comes to finding an iPhone deal, it's not always easy. During Prime Day, you'd think the best deals would be at Amazon. However, that's not correct. Instead, check out Best Buy or one of the U.S. carriers for the best iPhone deals.
Whether you're looking for the 2022 iPhone SE, tiny iPhone 13 mini, iconic iPhone 13, or a Pro model, these places almost certainly have all the color choices and storage options available. And if you're looking for other Prime Day Apple Deals besides the iPhone, be sure to check out some amazing Prime Day MacBook Deals, Apple Watch Deals, and others. We've got you covered!
