Today is officially the last day of Prime Day, and if you’ve waited until now to look for an iPhone deal, it may be harder to uncover one. Well, I’ve been doing the digging for you — and there are still epic savings out there.

Not only can you score a free iPhone 17 Pro from a big wireless carrier, but I’m also going to share deals I’ve found that don’t require trade-ins or lengthy contract agreements. There are also some iPhone deals from other retailers, like Best Buy and Walmart, where you can get instant discounts on popular models with no strings attached.

iPhone 17 Pro: free w/unlimited plan @ T-Mobile
What I like most about T-Mobile's offer is that you're getting a free iPhone 17 Pro without having to trade in an older device for a discount. Instead, you'll need to sign up for either its Experience Beyond or Experience More plan to get the savings that come in the form of monthly bill credits totaling $1,100 over 24 months.

Pick up the iPhone 16e with $590 off the original price at Cricket Wireless. All you need to do to get the full discount is port an existing number and prepay three months of its $60/month Supreme Unlimited plan. When you do that, your total at checkout comes out to be $190 plus tax. For a phone that will be getting iOS 27, it's one of the cheapest models to have access to it.

Apple iPhone Air: was $999 now $739 at Best Buy

Best Buy is giving the iPhone Air a $260 off instant discount, but the stipulation is that you have it activated on AT&T on Verizon. If you're already with those carriers, then this one's right for you. It's the thinnest model in Apple's lineup and it's on tap to get Siri AI once it arrives, making this Prime Day iPhone deal even better.

Apple iPhone 17: was $829 now $699 at Total Wireless

With its upgraded 120Hz Retina Display, the iPhone 17 is a completely revamped base flagship model that's worth getting through Total Wireless. The $699 you end up paying at checkout does require three months of its unlimited plan, which at $195 total, isn't a huge commitment like the 24 or 36 months that other carriers force on you.

iPhone 17 Pro Max: $1,579 w/1-year of unlimited service included
Mint Mobile has my favorite deal on the iPhone 17 Pro Max. Don't be too shocked by the $1,579 cost you need to shell out for this offer because it comes with one year of unlimited data. Plus, you're getting the next storage option up with 512GB memory. When you pay that amount at checkout, you won't need to worry about service for another year.
