Carriers Slash iPhone 15 Pro Deals as iPhone 17 Debuts

Lead Major U.S. carriers rolled out aggressive trade-in promotions for the iPhone 15 Pro on September 10, offering as much as $800 off with eligible device exchanges just one day after Apple’s iPhone 17 launch.

Nut Graf Following Apple’s unveiling of the iPhone 17 series on September 9, networks swiftly discounted the prior Pro model to entice upgrade-minded customers and clear inventory ahead of the new lineup.

Trade-In Rebates Drive Savings

• AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile now provide up to $800 in bill-credit rebates toward the iPhone 15 Pro when customers trade in qualifying smartphones.
• Credits are applied over 24-36 billing cycles, reducing monthly installments by $20-$33.

Retailer and Refurbished Offers

• Major U.S. retailers list factory-certified refurbished iPhone 15 Pro units starting at $769 for 128 GB-an approximate $230 savings off the original $999 MSRP.
• Limited-time online promotions include additional discounts with carrier activation, bringing effective prices below $700.

Why This Matters

With the iPhone 17 Pro starting at $1,099, last year’s iPhone 15 Pro now presents a cost-effective alternative for users who value Apple’s Pro features-such as the A17 Pro chip and 120 Hz ProMotion display-at a reduced price point.

What’s Next

Consumers have until September 18 to secure these promotional rates before trade-in credits and refurbished stock begin to taper off ahead of the iPhone 17’s September 19 retail debut.
