It’s not all about pricy appliances and homeware in the Argos – you’ll find some great deals on cheaper items too.

Argos stores across England, Wales and Northern Ireland will open on Good Friday (April 18), Easter Saturday (April 19) and Easter Monday (April 21) in 2025.
However, stores which do open their doors on these dates will likely follow a reduced hours policy common across the UK.
On Easter Sunday (April 20), the retailer will close all stores in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, marking the Christian holiday.
Scotland will be the outlier with most Argos locations closing for Easter Sunday but a select few staying open – so remember to check opening times before you travel to your local store.
Does Argos do January sales?
Yes, Argos does hold January sales and the retailer gives shoppers the entire month to snag any deals which catch their eyes.
That’s right, the retailer doesn’t bring their January clearance sales to a close until January 31 giving you as much time as possible to get your money’s worth.
With November fast-approaching, the high street store has some advice for potential customers:
Be prepared: The store’s website advises shoppers to prepare for a day of smooth shopping by researching the products you want and writing up a list of back-up options in case you are too late.
Create an Argos account: To purchase an online order on the day you will need an Argos account set up, so you can get ahead of the game and make sure to register before the rush!
Shopping online: Finally, Argos recommends shoppers complete their hauls from the comfort of their own home by starting early, prioritising their lists, sticking to their budgets and being patient.
On the big day, all orders bought online before 5pm will be delivered by 10pm on the same day for just £5.95, subject to availability.
Or, customers can choose to pick up from a Sainsbury’s Collection Point near you.
Head to The Sun’s shopping section for more of the latest discounts we’ve spotted.
TESCO has sent chocolate fans into a frenzy after slashing the price of cult favourite Easter treats to just 18p.

Some shoppers have also spotted other cut-price treats, including Haribo Eggs Galore and Reese’sCredit: facebook/Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group
The mega supermarket – which currently runs its epic 25%-off fashion sale – is offering customers Maltesers treats for as little as 18p.
Some of the bargain buys you can snap up on the cheap include Maltesers Mini Bunnies down from £1.85 to just 46p.
Another treat to look out for next time you’re popping in to get all the essentials is Maltesers Popcorn Easter Bunny.
This sugary treat, which is perfect for lunch boxes or a picnic, is on offer for a mere 18p, down from 75p.
While some may worry that these chocolates will expire soon, bargain-mad Tesco shoppers have reassured that the Best Before date it still months away.
One customer, Toni-May Clare, took to Facebook to share the sweet deal, writing: ”Maltesers bunnies in Tesco, all dated to Nov and Dec 2025.”
That works out at just 14p per bar — but some shoppers aren’t convinced they’re worth the price.
How to save money on chocolate
We all love a bit of chocolate from now and then, but you don’t have to break the bank buying your favourite bar.
Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to cut costs…
Go own brand – if you’re not too fussed about flavour and just want to supplant your chocolate cravings, you’ll save by going for the supermarket’s own brand bars.
Shop around – if you’ve spotted your favourite variety at the supermarket, make sure you check if it’s cheaper elsewhere.
Websites like Trolley.co.uk let you compare prices on products across all the major chains to see if you’re getting the best deal.
Look out for yellow stickers – supermarket staff put yellow, and sometimes orange and red, stickers on to products to show they’ve been reduced.
They usually do this if the product is coming to the end of its best-before date or the packaging is slightly damaged.
Buy bigger bars – most of the time, but not always, chocolate is cheaper per 100g the larger the bar.
So if you’ve got the appetite, and you were going to buy a hefty amount of chocolate anyway, you might as well go bigger.
One user commented: “They’re nasty lol.”
“Nothing special about it, I wouldn’t waste your money,” another wrote.
This shopper added: “Looks like someone smashed peas into the chocolate.”
“Not sure why everyone is raving on about this chocolate,” a fourth said.
Shoppers should visit their nearest Home Bargains to buy the discounted treats.

What is the latest iPhone?
The iPhone 16e went on general sale on Friday, February 28, 2025.
The Sun’s Tech Editor Sean Keach has tried and tested Apple’s newest smartphone and in his iPhone 16e review, he describes it as ”a phoenix rising from the ashes”.
He also praised its battery life, beautiful OLED display, and the useful Action Button that replaces the Mute Switch.

How much is the latest iPhone?
If you want to buy a standalone handset without entering a contract, the iPhone 16e starts from £599.
We’ve listed several iPhone 16e deals above, including pay-monthly options, so make sure to check them out.
What’s the cheapest iPhone to buy outright in the UK?
The cheapest iPhone to buy is the newest kid on the block, the iPhone 16e.
While it is the cheapest to buy outright, you can also get some incredible offers on refurbished models, too, with plenty of deals to be found on Amazon.
When is the next iPhone coming out?
The iPhone 17 Air model is expected to be released alongside Apple’s 17th line-up in September – if the rumours hold true.
The new alleged design measures just 5.5mm at its thinnest point.
When is the best time to buy an iPhone?
Every time Apple releases a new phone, each previous generation of the iPhone generally goes down in price.
So if you’re looking for a newer device without having to break open the piggy bank, it might be worth looking at a slightly older generation, like the iPhone 15, to save a few quid.
Since the release of the iPhone 16, many retailers have reduced the price of the iPhone 15 and iPhone 14.
As long as you don’t have to have the latest iPhone, go back a generation or two around the Apple launches, and you can save yourself a bundle.
It’s also worth shopping around to see if you can bag any spring savings or Easter offers.
In addition to slashing the cost of select Apple models, shoppers can enjoy free next-day delivery when they buy a new smartphone.
Very has also slashed the cost of several smartphones ahead of Easter, and that’s not all.
Shoppers can claim up to £560 when they trade in their old device.

iPhone 14 Pro, £754.47
Features: 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display, IP68 dust/water resistant, 6GB RAM. Quad main cameras: 48 MP Main, 12 MP wide, 12 MP 2x Telephoto, 12 MP 3x Telephoto, TOF 3D LiDAR scanner.

Pros
Impressive 48-megapixel camera

Compact design
Cons
The camera isn’t a huge step up from the 13 series
3x optical zoom is low for a pro model
The camera is large for a smaller device
The iPhone 14 Pro is almost identical to the iPhone 14 Pro Max other than its smaller screen of 6.1 inches.
Both models have a Super Retina XDR display with Pro Motion that allows the Always-On display feature to be possible for the first time.
The iPhone 14 Pro also features the first-ever 48 MP camera on iPhone.
The introduction of the Photonic Engine, which improves low-light photos, is another stellar feature and is included on all the iPhone 14 models.
Security has been a priority for the new phones, and they now all come with emergency SOS via satellite.
Apple also no longer produces iPhone 14 Pros, so we recommend shopping around if you have this model in mind.

Similar to the iPhone Pro Max, the iPhone 14 Plus features a large 6.7-inch screen.
Many of the iPhone 14 Plus features are similar to previous models, but there are a few notable improvements, such as the 5-core GPU and Bluetooth 5.3.
The camera updates also mean that photo quality will be improved slightly, especially in situations with poor lighting.
There’s also a new darker blue colour option that doesn’t exist for the iPhone 13.
iPhone 14

Features: 6.1-inch all-screen OLED display, IP68 dust/water resistant, 6GB RAM. Dual-camera system: 12 MP Main, 12 MP Ultra Wide, 2x optical zoom out, 5x digital zoom, Dual front cameras: 12 MP Main and 12 MP wide. A15 Bionic chip, Qi fast wireless charging 15W, and 5G Capabilities.

Great OLED display and Dolby Vision

Cons
Not a huge step up from the iPhone 13 series
Low refresh rate at just 60Hz
Fast charging could be better
At a step up from the iPhone 13, you’ll find the iPhone 14.
The main difference between the iPhone 14 and the iPhone 14 Plus is the screen size: the iPhone 14 measures 6.1 inches, the same as previous models.
If you’re not too fussed over a larger screen but are keen on an upgrade, then the iPhone 14 is the way to go.
The phone has 5G capabilities and offers fast charging.
The battery has also been slightly optimised to last longer.
There is a range of five colours – Blue, Purple, Midnight, Starlight and Red.

Features: 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display, IP68 dust/water resistant, 4GB RAM. Dual main cameras: 12 MP wide, 12 MP ultrawide. Dual front cameras: 12 MP wide and SL 3D depth/biometrics sensor. A15 Bionic chip, Qi fast wireless charging 15W, and 5G Capabilities.

Cons
Capped at 60Hz refresh rate
No upgrade to the selfie camera
No major design changes
The screen size of the iPhone 13 is the same as the Pro, together with its A15 Bionic chip processor and 5G connectivity capabilities.
The iPhone 13 has two main cameras instead of four, and its RAM is 4GB against the 6GB of the Pro and Pro Max.
Apple discontinued the iPhone 13 in September 2024.
iPhone SE 2022
iPhone SE (2022), £429
Features: 4.7-inch Retina HD display, Water and dust resistant, 12MP Wide camera, next-generation Smart HDR, and 4K video, 7MP front camera, Touch ID, A15 Bionic chip, Wireless charging, 5G
Pros
Comes with the A15 Bionic chipset
Is long-wearing with years of software updates
5G compatible
Cons
Capped at 64GB base storage
Tired looking design
No night-mode photography
The 2022 version of the iPhone SE features solid specs, a good camera and a wide choice of apps on the Apple Store.
Want a cool iPhone without spending a fortune? This is the one for you thanks to its fast processor and 5G capabilities.
More handsets
It is pretty standard procedure for the predecessor of a flagship to be discontinued, as Apple wants you to go for the most recent model instead.
However, these devices can still be widely purchased from other stockists as well as refurbished sites.
We’ve found some of the best ones below.
iPhone 13 Pro Max
iPhone 13 Pro Max (refurbished), £679
Features: 6.7-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display, IP68 dust/water resistant, 6GB RAM. Quad main cameras: 12 MP wide, 12 MP telephoto, 12 MP ultrawide, TOF 3D LiDAR scanner. Dual front cameras: 12 MP wide and SL 3D depth/biometrics sensor. A15 Bionic chip, Qi fast wireless charging 15W, and 5G Capabilities.
Pros
Comes with a 3x optical zoom telephoto lens
Excellent performance
Impressive 120Hz ProMotion screen
Cons
No on-off setting for macro photography
The large design may be offputting to some
Only capable of 1080p cinematic mode
The iPhone 13 Pro Max is a real powerhouse, with the blazing-fast A15 Bionic chip and a smaller notch.
The cameras here are particularly remarkable, with a 6x optical zoom range and Dolby Vision HDR video recording up to 60fps in 4K.
The LiDAR scanner enables night-mode portraits, faster autofocus in low light and enhanced Augmented Reality (AR) experiences.
The iPhone 13 Pro Max is also compatible with MagSafe accessories and wireless chargers.
iPhone 13 Pro
iPhone 13 Pro (refurbished), £589
Features: 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display, IP68 dust/water resistant, 6GB RAM. Quad main cameras: 12 MP wide, 12 MP telephoto, 12 MP ultrawide, TOF 3D LiDAR scanner. Dual front cameras: 12 MP wide and SL 3D depth/biometrics sensor. A15 Bionic chip, Qi fast wireless charging 15W, and 5G Capabilities.
Pros
Compact design for a high-end device
The camera and video are impressive all-round
Bright OLED display and 120Hz refresh rate
Cons
Heavy for a compact device
No major design changes from the 12 series
Battery life could be better for a Pro handset
A little step down from the top of the iPhone ladder, the iPhone 13 Pro shares a lot of hardware with its bigger brother, including the whole camera compartment.
The main difference here is the 6.1-inch screen, as opposed to the 6.7-inch of the Pro Max.
A smaller phone means a smaller battery, and so the iPhone 13 Pro offers up to 22 hours of video playback on a single charge (the Pro Max should last up to 28 hours).
All in all, the iPhone 13 Pro is still a serious flagship device, and if you don’t mind a smaller screen, it’s worth scoring a saving.
iPhone 13 mini
iPhone 13 mini (refurbished), £379
Features: 5.4-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display, IP68 dust/water resistant, 4GB RAM. Dual main cameras: 12 MP wide, 12 MP ultrawide. Dual front cameras: 12 MP wide and SL 3D depth/biometrics sensor. A15 Bionic chip, Qi fast wireless charging 15W, and 5G Capabilities.
Pros
Same performance as the iPhone 13 in a compact design
Large 128GB base storage
Bright display
Cons
Lacks a telephoto zoom lens
Capped at 60Hz refresh rate
The notch looks clunky on the smaller handset
With a substantially smaller screen, this 5.4-inch iPhone still comes with all the perks of the iPhone 13 family.
Featuring the same cameras as the iPhone 13, the mini offers wireless fast charging, 5G capabilities, and a wonderful Super Retina XDR OLED display.
The battery is a bit smaller than the iPhone 13, but with the A15 Bionic chip, you won’t suffer any lag or find apps slowing down.
Just like its older sibling, the mini comes in Black, White, Pink, Red, and Blue colours.
iPhone 12
iPhone 12 (refurbished) £208.95
Features: 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display, IP68 dust/water resistant, 4GB RAM. Dual main cameras: 12 MP wide, 12 MP ultrawide. Dual front cameras: 12 MP wide and SL 3D depth/biometrics sensor. A14 Bionic chip, Qi fast wireless charging 15W, and 5G Capabilities.
Pros
Comes with MagSafe charging
Solid battery life
Excellent camera
Cons
Capped at 64GB base storage
Only has a 60Hz refresh rate
No major performance upgrades
Before the Pro and Pro Max versions of iPhones debuted, Apple used to consider its now-base models as flagships.
The iPhone 12 is essentially that, minus a few perks reserved for the Pro and Pro Max. The screen size of the iPhone 12 is the same as the Pro, together with its A14 Bionic chip processor and 5G connectivity.
The iPhone 12 has two front cameras instead of four, however, and its RAM is 4GB against the 6GB of the Pro and Pro Max.
The optical range of the iPhone 12 is 2X, and the device does not have LiDAR scanner capabilities included in newer models.
Other than that, the iPhone 12 is not very different from the Pro, sharing the same battery life as well as a ceramic shield front.
iPhone 12 mini
iPhone 12 mini (refurbished), £158
Features: 5.4-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display, IP68 dust/water resistant, 4GB RAM. Dual main cameras: 12 MP wide, 12 MP ultrawide. Dual front cameras: 12 MP wide and SL 3D depth/biometrics sensor. A14 Bionic chip, Qi fast wireless charging 15W, and 5G Capabilities.
Pros
Compact design
5G connectivity
Comes with the A14 Bionic chipset
Cons
Below-average battery life
No telephoto lens
Clunky looking design
With a substantially smaller screen, this 5.4-inch iPhone still offers most of the perks of the iPhone 12 family.
Featuring the same cameras as the iPhone 12, the mini features wireless fast charging, 5G capabilities, and a gorgeous Super Retina XDR OLED display.
The battery is a bit smaller than the iPhone 12, but with the A14 Bionic chip, you won’t experience any apps slowing down using this iPhone.
iPhone 12 Pro Max
iPhone 12 Pro Max, (refurbished) £308.50
Features: 6.7-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display, IP68 dust/water resistant, 6GB RAM. Quad main cameras: 12 MP wide, 12 MP telephoto, 12 MP ultrawide, TOF 3D LiDAR scanner. Dual front cameras: 12 MP wide and SL 3D depth/biometrics sensor. A14 Bionic chip, Qi fast wireless charging 15W, and 5G Capabilities.
With the very fast A14 Bionic chip and an overhauled design, the Pro Max is a modern flagship in its own right.
The camera compartment is more than solid, with a 5x optical zoom range and Dolby Vision HDR video recording up to 60fps.
Just like in the iPhone 13, the LiDAR scanner enables Night Mode portraits, faster autofocus in low light and enhanced Augmented Reality (AR) experiences.
The iPhone 12 Pro Max is also compatible with MagSafe accessories and the majority of wireless chargers on the market.
iPhone 12 Pro
iPhone 12 Pro (refurbished), £255
Features: 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display, IP68 dust/water resistant, 6GB RAM. Quad main cameras: 12 MP wide, 12 MP telephoto, 12 MP ultrawide, TOF 3D LiDAR scanner. Dual front cameras: 12 MP wide and SL 3D depth/biometrics sensor. A14 Bionic chip, Qi fast wireless charging 15W, and 5G Capabilities.
The iPhone 12 Pro shares a lot of hardware with the Pro Max.
The main difference here is the 6.1-inch screen, as opposed to the 6.7-inch of the Pro Max.
The camera compartment is also quite similar, with the only difference being a 4x optical zoom range in the Pro against the 5x in the Pro Max.
The iPhone 12 Pro’s battery is also slightly smaller than the Pro Max, offering up to 17 hours of video playback on a single charge.
iPhone 11
iPhone 11, (refurbished) £155
Features: 6.1” Liquid Retina HD display1, Glass and aluminumdesign, Dual 12MP Ultra Wide and Wide cameras with Night mode, 12MP TrueDepth camera with 4K video recording at up to 60 fps, Face ID, A13 Bionic chip with third-generation Neural Engine, Lasts up to 1 hour longer than iPhone XR, Water resistant to a depth of 2 metres for up to 30 minutes
Pros
Impressive battery life
Unique colour options
Dual camera with an ultra-wide-angle lens
Cons
No telephoto lens on the base model
Capped at 64GB base storage
Not the best display
While it still has many of the same features as its Pro and Pro Max variants, the iPhone 11’s £429 price is over £100 cheaper than the iPhone 12.
A reduction in price does mean a slight reduction in quality: while its 6.1″ screen is slightly larger than the iPhone 11 Pro, it’s a little smaller than the Pro Max, and it doesn’t match the premium models for battery life either,
As well as having a standard LED (as opposed to an OLED) screen, the 11 is only waterproof to two metres rather than four and lacks the telephoto camera that features on the Pro and Pro Max.
However, you still get most of Apple’s most recent innovations for a reduced price, including top-quality cameras, processors and a long-lasting battery.
While there are phones out there with more impressive features, such as the cameras on a Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra, you’ll struggle to beat the mix of features and value they offer.

iPhone 11 Pro Max
iPhone 11 Pro Max (refurbished), £289.99

Lasts up to 5 hours longer than iPhone XS Max, 4m Water resistant to a depth of 4 metres for up to 30 minutes
The iPhone 11 Pro Max is a noticeable step up from 2018’s iPhones.
It’s got a 6.5″ screen, along with a 12mp triple rear-facing camera with telephoto, wide and ultra-wide sensors.
Alongside all of that, the Pro Max is water-resistant up to a depth of four metres and has an HDR OLED display, which will display your Netflix favourites in all their glory.

iPhone 11 Pro
iPhone 11 Pro (refurbished), £198.95
Features: 5.8” Super Retina XDR display, Textured matt glass and stainless steel design, Triple 12MP Ultra Wide, Wide and Telephoto cameras with Night mode, 12MP TrueDepth camera with 4K video recording at up to 60 fps, Face ID, A13 Bionic chip with third-generation Neural Engine, Lasts up to 4 hours longer than iPhone XS, Water resistant to a depth of 4 metres for up to 30 minutes.
The iPhone 11 Pro is a small step down from the Max.
It has most of the same features but with a smaller screen at 5.8″ and a smaller battery.
It’s still water-resistant to four metres, though, and still boasts a top-quality OLED screen for your movies on the go.
At the time of release, the standard Pro’s RRP was £100 less than the Pro Max.
iPhone XR
iPhone XR (refurbished),£142.75
Features: 6.1” Liquid Retina HD display, Glass and aluminumdesign, Single 12MP Wide camera, 7MP TrueDepth camera with 1080p HD video recording up to 60 fps, Face ID, A12 Bionic chip with second-generation Neural Engine, Lasts up to 1.5 hours longer than iPhone 8 Plus, 1m Water resistant to a depth of 1 metre for up to 30 minutes
The iPhone XR was released in 2018 as the ‘affordable’ option from Apple, and shoppers flocked to buy the gadget in their droves.
With refurbished models selling for under £200, the XR still has great features, including Face ID, a great battery and a very decent camera – plus Apple should continue to support this model with iOS updates up to 2025.
If you’re interested in buying this phone, you might want to read our iPhone XR review.
iPhone XS/Max
iPhone XS/Max, £238.97
Features: 6.5” Super Retina HD display, Glass and stainless steel design, Dual 12MP Wide and Telephoto cameras, 7MP TrueDepth camera with 1080p HD video recording up to 60 fps, Face ID, A12 Bionic chip with second-generation Neural Engine, Lasts up to 1.5 hours longer than iPhone X, 2m Water resistant to a depth of 2 metres for up to 30 minutes
While not quite up to the standard of the iPhone 11 Pro Max, 2018’s flagship phone is an impressive piece of kit.
It’s got a 6.5″ screen, a 7MP HD camera that will shoot 4K video and a range of camera effects, such as Bokeh for those all-important selfies.
Battery life is very decent, and the XS Max comes with Face ID.
It’s expected that Apple will continue to support this model with iOS updates up to 2025, so it’s one to buy if you want a cheap phone now and don’t mind using it for a shorter period.

Are refurbished iPhones a good buy?
Getting a refurbished iPhone can be a big cost saver.
Even the more affordable iPhones will be a hefty hit to your bank balance if you pay for them outright.
But there are plenty of places around the web, including Amazon and Apple’s website, that offer refurbished iPhones for a fraction of their regular price.
Whether or not they’re a good buy, though, comes down to the individual provider.
Apple, for instance, includes all cables with its refurbished phones, along with a one-year manufacturer warranty, which is useful if your phone develops a fault.
Amazon offers even better prices with similar quality, along with its own ‘Amazon Renewed Guarantee’, which we reckon should be pretty reliable, considering the size of the company.
Which networks offer iPhone deals?
Which iPhone has the best battery?
The iPhone 16 Pro Max boasts the ‘best’ battery among all iPhone models.
It has a large battery and an energy-efficient A18 Pro chip – so you can enjoy extended periods of video playback, gaming, and internet use without frequent recharging.
Which iPhone should I buy?
Choosing the ‘right’ iPhone depends on your needs and budget.
If you’re after top-tier performance, advanced camera capabilities, and the best battery life, the iPhone 16 Pro Max is ideal.
For a similar premium experience in a more manageable size, consider the iPhone 16 Pro.
Both models offer a balanced blend of features and value, with the Plus providing a larger screen and better battery life.
Meanwhile, if you’re on a tighter budget, previous models like the iPhone 16e still deliver solid performance at a lower cost.
Overall, consider your priorities in terms of performance, size, and budget and you’ll be able to make the best choice.
How much are iPhones?
iPhone prices vary based on the model and storage capacity.
Flagship phones from Apple always come with a hefty price tag to match, so if you’re looking for the recent releases – the iPhone 16 Pro Max – you’ll be looking at spending £1,199, while the Pro version costs £999.
The iPhone 16e is priced at £599, the iPhone 16 starts at £799, and the larger iPhone 16 Plus starts at £899.
The iPhone 15 is also available, and prices start from £699, and the iPhone 15 Plus prices start from £799.
What’s the cheapest way to buy an iPhone?
Picking the right time of the year can surely help you save some money.
Apple does not offer substantial discounts at any specific point during the year, but network retailers’ prices usually go down at the beginning of the summer and at Christmas time.
This way, even if you don’t save on the iPhone per se, you can get some heavy discounts on your data and calls to plan, thus saving you quite a bit of cash in the long run.
In addition, if you don’t have to own the latest Apple handset, you can get an iPhone from two to three years back at a substantially lower price than a flagship.
How to find the best iPhone deal
There are a few official network stores worth checking regularly, including EE, Vodafone, O2, and Three.
However, we find that the best deals are usually to be found in other online stores.
Here are our favourites:
Is it better to buy an iPhone outright or pay monthly?
It really depends on whether you need flexibility on your plan or not and if you have the cash to pay for the full cost of the handset (phone) upfront.
While you can save on a good data plan, you are also signing a contract binding you to that network for one or more years.
This means that, even if you find a better plan deal later, you cannot switch to it unless you pay hefty fees.
On the other hand, many providers today offer handy upgrade plans allowing you to get a new iPhone as soon as it comes out.
The choice, then, is ultimately up to you.
If you have the cash and think of changing your network plan quite often, then buying an iPhone outright may be the best option for you.
If, on the other hand, you’re happy with a certain network provider and always want to have the latest iPhone, a monthly offer may work better for you.
Is it better to buy an iPhone from Apple or a network?
Both Apple and network carriers today offer monthly, no-money-down instalment plans, most of them spread over two years.
While the overall price of iPhones is essentially the same when purchased like this, Apple charges a little more to include AppleCare+ or AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss options, while network providers offer various insurance plans.
That being said, an iPhone bought from Apple can be used with any network, while carriers usually lock their iPhones for the length of their contract so it may be the slightly better option if you’re still shopping around for the perfect SIM-only plan.
Which is better: an iPhone or a Samsung phone?
Galaxy devices have gone a long way since the days of the first Android phones, but can they compete with iPhones?
The short answer is yes, but it depends on what you value the most.
In terms of screen, cameras, and prices, the latest iPhones and Galaxy phones are toe-to-toe.
The biggest difference here is undoubtedly the operating system (OS).
If you have other Apple devices in the house (like Macs and iPads), then iOS can provide great integration capabilities.
Similarly, if you have an Android TV or Chromebook, you may want to opt for a Galaxy phone.
Another differentiator is that Apple devices don’t come with a micro-SD card to expand the internal storage, while Galaxy phones do.
With cloud storage plans becoming cheaper and more widespread, however, the 512GB of the iPhone 13 is enough for most people.
For context, with ‘just’ 128GB, you can store up to 6000 songs or 64 high-quality films – that’s a lot of space.
