Compare iPhone FAQ

What’s the Best iPhone?

The best iPhone isn’t always the newest, and choosing the best iPhone for you depends on what you’re looking for.

If you’re on a tight budget, choosing the cheaper 3rd gen iPhone SE will still give you some of the newest technological features such as 5G network access and an A15 Bionic chip, but at a much more wallet-friendly price point.

However, in terms of power, the iPhone 13 Pro is still the cream of the crop, and photographers and videographers will find the advanced triple camera among the best for shooting photos and videos.

What is the Cheapest iPhone?

The cheapest iPhone is currently the 3rd generation iPhone SE 64GB ($720), while the cheapest iPhone 13 is the iPhone 13 Mini with 128GB storage ($1,199).

If you have an older iPhone (an iPhone 8 or newer) you can often get credit to go towards the purchase of your new phone when you trade-in. This credit could be up to $850.

What is the Best Mobile Plan for iPhone?

The best mobile plan for iPhone depends on your needs and habits.

If you’re someone who uses their iPhone for everything, you might want a mobile plan with unlimited data such as Vodafone’s unlimited data plan. However, if you’re looking to save some money on your monthly phone bill, choosing a smaller mobile plan might be a better option.
