Starting with AT&T, you can get the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max for up to $1,200 off with an iPhone trade-in in any condition. You’ll need to upgrade with AT&T Next Up Anytime or switch to get this offer, and AT&T says it will be available for iPhone Duo orders in October as well.
If you switch to AT&T from a different carrier, AT&T will pay off your phone balance at up to $800 off per line. With the $1,200 offer, AT&T is offering the 256GB iPhone 18 Pro at no cost.
T-Mobile
- iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max: Up to $1,200 off with eligible trade-in
- Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4: Get $300 off second model when adding a new line
T-Mobile’s offers are nearly identical to AT&T. You can get the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max for up to $1,200 off you trade in an old device (in any condition) and purchase the new device on an eligible unlimited plan. You can also get this offer if you switch a line to Experience Beyond 2.0, Experience Beyond, or Go5G Next.
Additionally, you can get up to $930 off any iPhone 18 Pro model when trading in an eligible device, or switching a line to T-Mobile on Experience More 2.0, Experience More, or Go5G Plus.
For Apple Watches at T-Mobile, if you buy any new Apple Watch Series 12 or Ultra 4 device, you can get $300 off a second model when you add a watch line on the Watch Plan 2.0.
Verizon
- iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max: Up to $1,200 off with eligible trade-in
- Apple Watch Series 12: No cost when bundled with a new iPhone
Similar to the other carriers, Verizon is offering up to $1,200 off the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max with an eligible smartphone trade-in. You’ll need to purchase the new iPhone on a 36-month payment plan and you’ll receive the discount in the form of monthly promo credits over the course of your plan.
Verizon is also offering the Apple Watch Series 12 at no cost when you purchase it alongside a new iPhone. You just need to buy the iPhone on Simplicity, Simplicity Plus, Pro, or myPlan, and purchase the Apple Watch on a 36-month payment plan.
Visible
Visible is offering $480 off the iPhone 18 Pro when you purchase it on the Visible+ Pro plan. To get this deal, you’ll need to join or switch to the Visible+ Pro monthly plan and purchase the iPhone 18 Pro at full retail price, and then you’ll see the $480 off in terms of monthly service credits.
Visible’s offer differs from other carriers due to requiring the full retail purchase of the new iPhone, compared to AT&T and others, which are offering discounts on monthly financing options. If you’re interested, new members can get 50% off one year of the Visible+ Pro annual plan with SAVEHALF at checkout.
Visible offers unlimited talk, text, and data for $19/month on the Visible plan, $29/month on the Visible+ plan, or $39/month on the Visible+ Pro plan (prices include $6 discount with current promo code SAVE6).
