When will the new iPhone 16 be released?

Apple’s iPhone 16 and 16 Pro series will launch on September 20That’s the date that those who pre-order early enough — like exactly when pre-orders open — can expect to receive their shiny new device in the mail. That’s also the date that stock will be available in stores. Keep in mind that certain configurations tend to “sell out” of available inventory, meaning there are often delays for the most popular color and storage capacity of a given model.

We recommend that you keep some backup options in mind if you plan to purchase a new iPhone on September 20 or soon after.

How do I trade in my current phone to upgrade to the new iPhone 16?

Some carriers offer up to $1,000 in eligible trade-in options, which could get you the iPhone 16 Pro for free. The important thing to keep in mind is that most carrier trade-in deals require you to be a customer, and this usually applies to some of the most expensive plan options.

Some retailers with trade-in programs may offer you gift cards toward future purchases instead, so you’re not locked into a contract to take advantage of the savings of getting rid of your old device. However, these deals may not offer as high a return. We’ve included specific information below on how much you can expect to get for trading in your phone at certain retailers and carriers.

How do I find the best iPhone 16 deals?

We’ll continue to update the list below with the best iPhone 16 deals from all major US retailers and carriers during this pre-order phase.

You can pre-order the iPhone 16 series at the Apple Store beginning Friday, September 13 at 5 a.m. PT (8 a.m. ET), with expected shipping on September 20.

Apple is also offering some carrier deals with pre-orders. Existing Verizon customers can save up to $930 with a trade-in; AT&T customers can save up to $800 with a trade-in, and both T-Mobile and Boost customers can save up to $1,000 with no trade-in required.

T-Mobile will offer the entire iPhone 16 lineup for pre-order beginning Friday, September 13, with in-store availability at T-Mobile on September 20. Both new and existing customers can trade in an eligible device to Go5G Next and get an iPhone 16 Pro for free or up to $1,000 off any iPhone 16 model. Trade-ins who have the Go5G Plus plan will get a free iPhone 16 or up to $830 off any other iPhone 16 model. If you have another Go5G, you could still qualify for the iPhone 16 or up to $830 off when you trade in and add a new line.

AT&T will begin accepting preorders for the iPhone 16 lineup beginning on Friday, September 13 at 5 a.m. PT (8 a.m. ET). You can get up to $1,000 off the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max, and up to $830 off the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus, with a qualifying trade-in. That essentially gets you a free iPhone 16 or 16 Pro. These discounts will be spread out over 36 months in the form of bill credits.

Eligible devices include smartphones with a minimum trade-in value of $180 for up to $1,000 off the iPhone 16 Pro or 16 Pro Max. For other phones in the series, the trade-in device must have a minimum value between $130 and $179. Additionally, customers must sign up for or have an unlimited voice and data plan.

Starting Friday, September 13, you can pre-order the iPhone 16 series via the Boost site, the Amazon store, or the Apple store. Buy an iPhone 16 with a $25-per-month unlimited plan and you’ll get a full year of Boost Unlimited 5G mobile service for free, or opt to get up to $1,000 off the device — no trade-in necessary.

Enroll in the Boost mobile service through Apple Stores or Apple’s website and trade in an eligible iPhone through Apple to receive between $180 and $650 in additional credit.

Xfinity Mobile will offer the iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max, all of which are available for pre-order beginning Friday, September 13, and will be available for purchase on September 20. It will also offer the AirPods 4 and the latest Apple Watches, which are available for pre-order now and will be available for purchase on September 20.

At this time, no deals have been announced, but we expect them to be similar to those of other airlines. We will update this post as soon as these deals are announced.

Verizon will be offering the iPhone 16 series for pre-order starting Friday, September 13, with availability on Friday, September 20. They’re offering some deals now.

New and existing Verizon customers on the Unlimited Ultimate plan can get an iPhone 16 Pro for free or up to $1,000 off another phone in the iPhone 16 series when you trade in a phone in any condition. If you opt for the Unlimited Plus plan, you can get up to $830 off, or opt for the Unlimited Welcome plan and you’ll still get $415 off phones in the iPhone 16 series.

If you switch to Verizon or add a new line, you can get an iPhone 16 Pro for just $10 per month with the Ultimate Unlimited plan (36 months) or $15 per month with the Unlimited Plus plan.

And finally, there’s the option to bring your own device and add a new line to receive a promotional credit: $360 if you opt for the Unlimited Plus plan or $540 if you opt for the Unlimited Ultimate. This promotional credit is applied over 36 months.

Walmart will put the iPhone 16 lineup up for preorder on September 13, with availability on September 20. While Walmart isn’t offering unlocked model deals, you can save on carrier options through AT&T. New and existing AT&T customers can trade in a qualifying device worth $130 and get up to $830 off; if you have a $180 device to trade in, you can get up to $1,000 off the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max. You’ll need to activate a new line or upgrade your line to a qualifying plan if you don’t already have one.
