You don’t have to buy the iPhone 15, 15 Plus, Pro, or Pro Max directly from Apple, all the major carriers will offer you one on contract, and many U.K. resellers will sell you one unlocked. The biggest benefit of not buying from Apple though is that you can take advantage of special deals and discounts. Of course, you can still buy from Apple directly, either in an Apple Store or online.
If you’re anxious to get your hands on the new iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, or iPhone 15 Pro Max, here’s a summary of some of the best deals and promotions offered by retailers and carriers in the U.K. to help you get the best deal on your new iPhone. If you’re looking for other models, check out our Best iPhone deals.
And if you aren’t sure which new iPhone to buy, we compare every iPhone in a separate article.

Best Phone 15, 15 Plus, 15 Pro, and 15 Max Carriers and contract deals
If you want to buy the latest iPhone for less than the full retail price, you’re probably going to need to get it from a carrier or mobile provider, and there will often be significant strings attached. These deals can be complicated, so be sure to read the fine print. You can purchase directly from Apple with activation on a carrier to get special carrier deals, though you may have more options if you buy from the carrier.

Best Unlocked iPhone 15, 15 Plus, 15 Pro and 15 Max deals
In the U.K. it is easy to buy an iPhone without it being locked to a particular network, which is a good option if you have a contract already that you are happy with. It’s also easier to sell on an unlocked iPhone later on.
Buying direct from Apple is one way to buy an unlocked, SIM-free iPhone 15, Plus, Pro or Max, but you can also shop around and save money by buying from other retailers such as Amazon, John Lewis, Currys, Argos and others. We have tables below that will show you the best price right now, so you can pick the best place to buy an iPhone.
Apple and some U.K. resellers will allow you to trade in your old iPhone so you can get money off your new one. You can trade in at Amazon, Argos, Currys, and John Lewis. We cover How to sell or trade in your old iPhone separately.
One reason to give your custom directly to Apple is that the company offers an iPhone Upgrade Program. You can pay from £42.95 a month and get a new iPhone every year-with AppleCare+ included. You can also spread your payments over a couple of years so you are paying every month for your new iPhone.

Where to get refurbished iPhone 15 deals
If you haven’t already, you may want to consider buying a refurbished iPhone 15 to save money (and the environment). Refurbished devices are thoroughly tested and repaired to work and look just like new. In the case of official Apple refurbished iPhones, you get a brand-new body and screen, box, accessories, battery, and warranty. It’s almost indistinguishable from buying a new iPhone.
See our full guide to buying refurbished or second-hand iPhones for more.
The first place to shop for a refurbished iPhone is at the Apple Refurbished Store. At the time of this writing, Apple does not yet offer refurbished iPhone 15 models for sale—they usually start showing up when the next model is released (so the iPhone 14 line will end up there soon). Rest assured, the Apple Refurbished Store is where you can get the highest quality of refurbished iPhones.
Since it will take so long for Apple to offer refurbished iPhone 15 models, or if you just want to look for a better deal, you can check these resellers instead:
U.K.
- Music Magpie
- Envirofone
- Reboxed
- 4Gadgets
- Smartfone Store
