Sure, it may feel like Black Friday deals are still far off, but Thanksgiving is right around the corner. Plus, with many retailers undergoing supply issues, our advice for 2021 is to snag the first iPhone 13 Black Friday deals you see.
Generally speaking, Black Friday is an excellent time for iPhone 13 deals. Although the phone itself is still relatively new, retailers and carriers alike have been offering epic deals on Apple’s entire iPhone 13 family. Many sales are offering the iPhone 13 for free.
Keep in mind, the best iPhone 13 Black Friday deals will require you to meet certain requirements. For instance, you’ll likely have to trade in your old phone and sign up for an unlimited line. However, the savings are massive. So whether you’re shopping for yourself or someone else — here’s what you can expect from this year’s iPhone 13 Black Friday deals.

iPhone 13 Black Friday deals — what to expect
The iPhone 13 is one of the best phones you can buy. Naturally, it comes with a high price tag. The base iPhone 13 costs $799, whereas the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max cost $999 and $1,099, respectively. Meanwhile, the iPhone 13 mini is the smallest and least-expensive model in the lineup coming in at $699.
As far as deals are concerned, practically every major carrier is currently offering free iPhone 13 deals. These freebie deals are generally reserved for the holidays. (Last year, we saw dozens of iPhone 12 freebie discounts in November). However, this year carriers have come out strong and aggressive.
That means we likely won’t see “cheaper” deals in November. Instead, iPhone 13 Black Friday deals may offer better incentives. For instance, a carrier like Verizon could offer a higher trade-in credit than its current $800 max. Alternatively, carriers and retailers could offer iPhone 13 buy one, get one free (BOGO) deals.
Expect all major carriers to offer the iPhone 13, iPhone 13 mini, and iPhone 13 Pro for $0 after trade-in and with the opening of new unlimited line. The pricier iPhone 13 Pro Max will likely drop to $99 with the same stipulations.
One thing to keep in mind is that retailers and manufacturers are experiencing chip shortages. Retailers like Verizon and Apple are reporting backorders through late October. So our advice is to shop early and secure the best deals as soon as you can. That said, we’ve lined up some of the best deals you can get right now.
Will the Apple Store have iPhone 13 Black Friday deals
The Apple Store traditionally offers its annual Black Friday sale online and in-store. Last year, Apple offered up to $150 Apple gif card with select purchases. Eligible devices included devices like the Apple Watch 3 and AirPods. However, the iPhone 12 (the current-gen phone last November) weren’t eligible for the discount. Instead, the sale only applied to the iPhone SE, iPhone 11, and iPhone XR. As a result, we don’t foresee Apple offering iPhone 13 Black Friday deals in November.
