Verizon-owned Visible is offering the iPhone 17e for free — here's how to get it

The iPhone 17e is Apple's newest budget phone. Priced at $599, it's still a bit on the pricey side, but this latest deal from Visible makes it more affordable than ever.

Right now, you can get the iPhone 17e for free at Visible when you buy it with the Visible+ Pro plan. That's one of the best cell phone deals I've seen on a phone that we call the best option for most cash-strapped users.
