Sean Keach, our Tech Editor, has got his hands on both the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Pro and was hugely impressed by both handsets.
In his iPhone 13 review, Sean shouts out the hugely improved nighttime camera quality, while in his iPhone 13 Pro review he sings the praises of the brand-new A15 Bionic processor.
There’s plenty more besides to check out in the new iPhone 13 – but you’re probably eager to find out where you can get your hands on them.
Read on for our pick of the best iPhone 13 deals, plus where to buy the new handsets in the UK and the US.
Best iPhone 13 deals this October
Best iPhone 13 deal for data: Vodafone
Here’s a iPhone 13 deal that offers limitless data, and it comes from Vodafone via Mobiles.co.uk – a contract that offers you unlimited data on a monthly basis for £43 per month and £100 upfront.
This offer is on the 128GB handset across all five colourways.
Best iPhone 13 deal for upfront cost: Tesco Mobile
It might only come with 6GB of monthly data, but for lots of people that’s more than enough. Otherwise, the monthly bill of £37 is pretty good on a flagship device from Apple.
Keep in mind though: this is a 36-month contract, so that’s quite a bit of commitment.
Best iPhone 13 deal for low monthly cost: iD Mobile
You’ll find contracts out there on the iPhone 13 for as a little as £28 a month – but be prepared to spend hundreds upfront. We think this plan from iD Mobiles is the best compromise: it fixes you up with 20GB of monthly data for £36.99 a month and just £79 upfront.
Best iPhone 13 Pro deals
Best iPhone 13 Pro deal for data: Virgin Media
This is our favourite plan out for for data right now – £46 a month isn’t bad at all for a hefty 160GB of data. Better still, you’re paying nothing upfront.
- Apple iPhone 13 Pro 128GB | 160GB data | £46 per month | £0 upfront | 24 months – buy from Virgin Media
Best iPhone 13 Pro deal for upfront cost: Sky Mobile
This comes with less data than the contract above, but to pay nothing upfront with a £43-per-month cost is a pretty decent deal in the iPhone 13 Pro month.
- Apple iPhone 13 Pro 128GB | 20GB data | £43 per month | £0 upfront | 36 months – buy from Sky Mobile
Best iPhone 13 Pro deal for low monthly cost: Vodafone
You can pay as little as £27 a month for the iPhone 13 Pro, but trust us when we say your wallet will take a hit with the upfront costs. Here’s a nice compromise from Vodafone.

This is the latest iPhone – the most sought-after smartphone on the market.
That means nearly every last retailer is offering pay-monthly plans, with a smaller number of stores stocking the SIM-free handset.
The following providers are all offering contracts on the new iPhone 13 range:
How long does it take for iPhone 13 orders to arrive?
If you ordered it as soon as it was available to pre-order, you should expect your iPhone 13 to arrive after around a fortnight.
Pre-orders went live on Friday September 17th, and the range officially hit shelves on Friday September 24th.
After that, we imagine deliveries will take another week or so.
We expect prices on the iPhone 13’s predecessor to drop – be sure to read our iPhone 12 Black Friday deals article as November draws nearer.
