Discounts on the newest iPhones are usually rare on Black Friday, which is why Boost Mobile’s sale could be worth your attention. The carrier is offering every iPhone 16 model, from the base version to the Pro Max, for just one cent — essentially making them free. 

The catch, of course, is that you’ll have to be willing to commit to Boost Mobile’s network and sign up for its Infinite Access plan, which starts at $65 per month. That plan also lets you trade in your phone for a newer model every year. While Boost Mobile offered the same deal for every model, the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max are already sold out on Amazon.

The iPhone 16, which Apple launched in September, comes with a new processor, the Camera Control button for quickly accessing and manipulating the camera and slightly larger screens on the Pro models. The iPhone 16 is generally a marginal improvement over the iPhone 15, but it’s a worthwhile upgrade for those coming from an older model that’s several years old. 

While it’s rare to see discounts on the latest iPhone for Black Friday, it’s common for carriers to lure you to their networks with enticing deals. Mobile network providers will often knock up to $1,000 off the price of a new phone as long as you sign up for a specific plan and trade in your old phone. What’s notable about this particular deal, though, is that it doesn’t require a trade-in to get started.

The deal applies to every variant of the iPhone 16, making this a particularly good opportunity to opt for a version with more internal storage. 

That said, it’s still important to read the fine print. Although Boost Mobile’s Infinite Access Plan starts at $65, it looks like the monthly payment is slightly higher for the most expensive models. You’ll also be locked into Boost Mobile’s network for 36 months by taking this deal.

You should also make sure Boost Mobile offers reliable coverage in your area before considering this deal, which you can check through the carrier’s website. All told, this could be a good deal for those who aren’t committed to their current network and want a new iPhone with a lot of storage. But if you don’t mind parting with your old phone and aren’t comfortable committing to Boost, consider other iPhone trade-in deals.
