Best Black Friday 2018 phone and wearable deals – CNET

Apple iPhone XR

Deals for the colorful and less expensive iPhone XR are similar to the XS and XS Max, with one addition from US Cellular:

T-Mobile: Get up to $750 off the iPhone XR when you open up a new line of service and trade in an eligible phone. In some cases, the deal requires you to activate two lines of service. The savings come in the form of bill credits over a 24-month period. T-Mobile’s offer is available now. Read more about T-Mobile’s full Black Friday deal here.  

Verizon: If you’re upgrading your current phone on Verizon, the carrier will snip $100 off the asking price of the iPhone XR, as long as you hand over your previous phone. If you’re switching from another carrier, or adding an additional line of service to your account, that discount rises to $300. Once again, you’ll need to trade in your old phone to get the sale.

Sprint: Lease an iPhone XR, get one free from Sprint. Read more about this deal here. The sale begins Nov. 21 through Dec. 2.

US Cellular: Get a free 64GB iPhone XR when you switch to a US Cellular unlimited plan. Current upgrade-eligible US Cellular customers on a Total Plan can also get $250 off select phones, plus up to $200 for successful referrals. The deal is live now and runs through Nov. 26, while supplies last.  

Walmart: To cash in on the offer for Apple’s new iPhones for 2018 — a $300 gift card — you’ll need to activate through AT&T, Sprint or Verizon. The offer applies to in-store purchases only, starting Nov. 22 at 6 p.m. through Nov. 23.  

Best Buy: Save $150 on the new iPhones at Best Buy. The sale begins Nov. 22 at 5 p.m. and requires qualified activation with AT&T, Sprint or Verizon.
