Prime Day–Amazon’s annual mega-sale–is when tech enthusiasts start looking for good deals on everything from laptops to power adapters. It has gotten to be such a big event that other online retailers often run competing sales around the same time, to try to get a little more business out of all that increased online shopping activty.
You might think Prime Day, which takes place on June 12-13 this year, is a great time to buy a new iPhone. It’s not, necessarily. The latest iPhones are rarely discounted anywhere in the U.S, with most sales going to older or refurbished models. And Amazon isn’t really the best place to buy a new iPhone, at least in the U.S as Amazon’s new iPhones are carrier locked to Cricket Wireless, an AT&T subsidiary.
In the U.K. though, you can find the latest iPhones unlocked at Amazon and at other resellers. Supplies can be limited, and prices can range quite a bit, but we are still seeing some good early deals on Amazon in the U.K.
In the U.K. you can find some amazing iPhone deals over on Amazon right now, including these highlights:
- £80 off the iPhone 13, 128GB SSD, Pink
- £105.27 off iPhone 13 mini, 512GB SSD, Pink
- £287.69 off iPhone 13 Pro Max, 1TB SSD, gold
- £143.49 off iPhone 12, 64GB SSD, black
- £100 off iPhone 12 mini, 128GB SSD, red
