Right now, you can get a free iPhone 16 Pro when you switch to T-Mobile.

We know: It sounds too good to be true. Stick with us on this one. For a limited time, T-Mobile will pay off your current phone via a prepaid Mastercard up to $800. Through this deal, you’ll get an iPhone 16 Pro loaded up with the company’s Experience Beyond plan for up to four lines for $25. Switching plans has never been so enticing.

The plan in question will usually run you $170 a month and includes major perks such as a five-year price guarantee, the option to upgrade your phone every year and unlimited premium data. You’ll also gain access to streaming services including Apple TV+, Hulu and Netflix so you can catch up on some of the hottest movies and TV shows for free.

Through this deal, you’ll have the option to choose from a multitude of colorways of the iPhone 16 Pro, including Desert Titanium, Black Titanium, Natural Titanium and White Titanium. You also have the option to choose between a range of storage sizes. If you don’t hoard photos and videos, 128GB should do the trick. If you store pretty much everything on your phone, you might want to consider 1TB.

You can also get a free iPhone 16 or iPhone 16 Plus through the same method when you switch to T-Mobile on Experience Beyond. To participate in this deal, purchase your iPhone on a monthly payment plan and pay the applicable sales tax on the pre-credit price at the time of purchase, plus a $35 device connection charge.

You’ll then want to activate a new voice line on an Experience Beyond plan and port in an eligible number. Finally, you’ll receive up to $1,000 back via 24 monthly bill credits. If you’re already a T-Mobile plan holder, you’ll want to double-check which plan you already have before taking part in this offer.

Unlike the neutral tones of the iPhone 16 Pro, the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus come in vibrant hues on the T-Mobile’s website. You’ve got Pink, Teal, Black, White and Ultramarine. When choosing both phones, you can pick between 128GB of storage and up to 512GB, depending on your needs. The 16 is a major upgrade to the older iPhone models. Unlike the 15, the 16 has a more powerful processor, a longer battery life and a snazzy Camera Control button. The 16 also includes Apple Intelligence features.
