There is no shortage of decent iPhone 17 deals if you’re looking to pair up your device with a high-end plan. But what about if you’re strictly on a budget?
Well, ‘budget’ and ‘iPhone deals’ aren’t exactly synonymous, but the prepaid carrier Red Pocket is definitely an option right now thanks to a limited-time-only preorder promo.
Currently, the carrier is offering a combination of a $50 upfront discount and $150 rebate across every single device in the range. That’s with a line on the carrier’s Plus, Premium, or Elite plans, but none of the usual trade-ins are required here, and the devices are technically sold unlocked.
The plans in question start at just $20/mo, so this is a very, very good option if you’re looking to save some cash right now. The only catch? The $150 rebate is eligible after three months, so you can’t just buy the device and immediately switch out if you want the full discount.
Red Pocket’s excellent iPhone 17 preorder deal
Of the three eligible plans at Red Pocket, I’d highlight the yearly Premium plan as a particularly good option. At $300 upfront, it has a significant outlay, but you get 50GB of premium 5G data at a price that comes out at just $25/mo on average if you’re a new customer. The Plus plan is also fantastic if you’re really on a budget, although note that your download speeds might be slower after 10GB of usage.
