Amazon UK is offering £100 off the entire iPhone lineup (except SE). There was a similar discount a while back, but it only covered the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus, while the two Pro models were also discounted this time.
Starting with the iPhone 15 Pro Max, the base 256GB model is over a thousand pounds even with the discount. But iPhones have never been cheap, least of all the Pro Max. Still, it's the best Apple phone made so far this September.
The tiny iPhone 15 Pro is one of the most compact flagships, with a base storage capacity of 128GB coming in for under a thousand quid, though you'll want to go up to 256GB just for peace of mind.
If you're not one to mourn the death of the small phone, you can go big (on the cheap) with the iPhone 15 Plus. If the rumors are true, this will be the last time the Plus will have the same screen size as the Ultra. Same resolution even though the panel is only running at 60Hz. The Pro Max has a telephoto camera and a faster chipset, but both offer impressive battery life.
And the next Pro will be bigger, at least that's the unofficial information. But for now, the iPhone 15 is identical to the 15 Pro. Like the Plus, it lacks modern conveniences, but it's cheap. The 128GB model has been discounted by over £100, but we'd still recommend going with at least 256GB.
You may also want to consider the iPhone 14 and 14 Plus, which are £100 cheaper than their 15-series counterparts. That's the price of a storage upgrade, too, although these older models have no USB-C port (they have Lightning instead) and no flexible island (instead of a notch). To make matters worse, the main cameras only have 12MP sensors.
We're moving away from Apple's lineup to take a look at this Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra offering. It's the 256GB model in Lavender and costs just £950. Fair warning though, very few episodes left. This comes at the price of the Galaxy S24+ (12/256GB is £1,000 on Samsung.com).
Earlier rumors indicated that Google would raise the price of the new Pixel A-phone, but the latest information suggests that the Pixel 8a will cost $500 in the US, the price it was when the 7a first launched. There is still a chance Europe will see a rate hike – we'll find out on May 14.
Meanwhile, the Pixel 7a is down to £330 and that's with a 30W charger bundled in. The 8a promises a better chipset (Tensor G3) and 7 years of software support (the 7a only has 2 OS updates left). That said, if it holds the same launch price as the 7a it will be a while before the 8a drops below the £450 starting price.
For context, the Pixel 8 is down to £570 for a base 8/128GB unit. We'd hold off on getting the Pixel 8, as the 8a seems to offer very similar hardware at a lower price point.
