The best iPhone 15 carrier deals and availability in the UK
Mobile phone carriers are now sharing their best iPhone 15 deals on their websites. We’ll be rounding up the best contract deals as they land, so keep checking back.
Best Sky Mobile iPhone 15 deals
Best: iPhone 15 deals overall
Sky Mobile offered some of the top deals for the iPhone 14 Pro Max launch last year, and it appears to be bettering those benefits once more for the iPhone 15.
Sky has announced that the iPhone 15 Pro Max will cost £39 per month, the iPhone 15 Pro will cost £33 per month, the iPhone 15 will cost £26 per month and the iPhone 15 Plus will cost £33 per month. You do need to add on a data plan, but the carrier is offering double data for a limited time. That means you’ll only pay £8 a month for 8GB of data instead of £8 a month for 4GB.
Plus, there are other perks included if you take out a contract with Sky Mobile, including Sky’s piggybank system, which rolls your unused data into a virtual pot that you can share with your family. Additionally, users won’t be subject to pesky mid-contract price hikes, and you’ll also have the ability to stream Sky Go, Sky Sports and more without it eating into any data.
