New iPhones are likely to be announced during Apple's September keynote. However, there's a strong possibility they may come with a price hike. That means if you're looking for a budget iPhone — the iPhone 17 is still your best bet.
Right now, you can get four T-Mobile lines for $100/month total. That's just $25/line. Plus, you can get four iPhone 17 phones for under $100 each when you sign up for the 4-line plan. That's one of the best iPhone 17 deals I've seen. A trade-in is required.
Paying $100/month for four lines is an excellent deal considering competing plans cost double. Note: There is a $35 device connection charge per line, but you're still saving more than you would on competing plans.
We named T-Mobile the best family cell phone plan. When choosing your plan, remember that different plans pack different freebies. And since T-Mobile beats other carriers when it comes to included add-on benefits, you're getting a lot of stuff to go with your unlimited data.
Meanwhile, the iPhone 17 is the iPhone we recommend to most users because it offers the best value. For starters, it got the most upgrades when compared to the iPhone 16. The base iPhone 17 now comes with a larger, 120Hz display, faster 30W wired charging speeds, brighter screen, double the storage, and a slick selfie camera.
In our iPhone 17 review, Apple's smartphone also reached 12 hours and 47 minutes, an improvement of 34 minutes over the iPhone 16. Although the Pro models offer more battery life and more processing power, the iPhone 17 is no slouch and it's the best bargain you'll find.
