One way to score a cheap(er) iPhone is to grab an older model, which often receive the best discounts. The iPhone 14 came out in 2022, and Apple generally supports its handsets for a minimum of 5 years, so the 14 should be good through 2027. While it won't get Apple's upcoming AI, this is otherwise still a very capable handset, with a 6.1-inch display, A15 processor and lots of storage.
Cyber Monday phone sales — FAQ
Every Black Friday / Cyber Monday, phones of all brands will usually receive significant discounts, with the biggest savings often going to the previous year's models. That said, It's still common to see hundreds of dollars slashed from the latest models.
Additionally, it's important to take note of what kind of stock is being offered. Sometimes the discounted phones are unlocked, while other times they have some carrier deal attached to them.
You may also see international stock with big discounts applied, though you should always make sure the phone in question is compatible with Australia's networks and is backed by warranty.
Should I buy a phone on Cyber Monday?
Typically, the Black Friday and Cyber Monday weekend is one of the best times to buy a phone, either unlocked or tied to a telco. It's quite common to see hundreds of dollars slashed from the biggest brands, including Apple and Samsung.
If you're in the market for a new phone in 2024, the Black Friday / Cyber Monday weekend is a great time to upgrade.
How do I get the best Cyber Monday phone deals?
The best course of action is to search around for the best Cyber Monday phone deals. That may mean sifting through dodgy or deceptive sales, but it's good to get an idea of what prices your desired phone is going for at multiple retailers.
That said, you shouldn't wait too long, because a truly great deal will only last as long as the amount of stock that's available from any given retailer. Our advice is to make sure to keep an eye out on stock levels wherever that information is offered.
