Carriers Offer $1,000 iPhone 15 Discounts, But With Caveats

  • To get the full $1,000 carrier discount on iPhone 15, you'll likely need to switch to the priciest unlimited data plans from Verizon or T-Mobile. AT&T has the easiest requirements.

  • You'll also need to trade in a recent, high-end phone in good condition and commit to a 24-36 month installment plan to get the discounts from any carrier.

  • Verizon is accepting any old iPhone for its top $1,000 off deal, but you still need its priciest unlimited plan.

  • T-Mobile is limiting its best deal to customers on its newer 5G plans, unlike AT&T which has wider plan eligibility.

  • Lesser discounts of a few hundred dollars are available from all three carriers for older trade-in devices or cheaper plans.
