Walmart is one of the few retailers offering an iPhone SE deal, though to reap the savings, you've got to buy a phone tied either Straight Talk or Total Wireless. That lets you get the iPhone SE for $149, a $200 discount off the $399 price at which Walmart previously sold the iPhone SE.

iPhone SE Cyber Monday deals: What to know about the iPhone SE

The iPhone SE takes the same form factor as the iPhone 8, but updates the inner components. This phone features an A13 Bionic processor, which may not match the A14 Bionic found in the iPhone 12 lineup, but still outperforms many top Android handsets. The iPhone SE also features a single rear camera, aided by the neural engine on the A13 chip to produce some of the best photos we've seen from a low cost phone.

Many of the iPhone SE Cyber Monday deals we've seen so far only cover the 64GB base model. That's a pretty meager amount of storage these days, so look for bargains on the higher capacity models if possible. AT&T's discounted price currently applies to the 128GB ($300) and 256GB ($450) versions of the iPhone SE, too.

The iPhone SE comes in three colors — black, white and Project Red. The deals above apply to all three color options where supplies are available.

The iPhone SE is currently the cheapest iPhone, though Apple recently cut the prices of the iPhone 11 and iPhone XR to $599 and $499, respectively.

Is iPhone SE worth buying now?

During iPhone SE Cyber Monday deals you'll find promotions you might not see again. If you're in the market for a new iPhone, you have the chance to get a new model for a fraction of the cost. Of course restrictions apply based on your carrier, but changing your cellular plan could save you money if you do your research.
