T mobile iphone 12 mini deals for existing customers

T-Mobile has clarified that it will offer a $30 discount on the iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 12 — same as AT&T and Verizon. That means the phones will start at $699 and $799, respectively, for T-Mobile customers as well, instead of the usual starting prices of $729 and $829 that Apple charges.

There’s been no small amount of confusion over Apple’s pricing for its iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini. During its announcement this week, Apple said that the phones would start at the lower $799 and $699 prices, but later, it became clear on the company’s website that those were in fact discounted prices being offered for AT&T and Verizon customers, with the full price of the phones actually starting at $729 and $829.

T-Mobile has added an additional offer for customers who buy through Apple, offering an extra $150 on top of Apple’s own trade-in offers when trading in an iPhone.

At first, it seemed like T-Mobile wouldn’t offer a similar discount for its customers, but the company now lists the same $30 discount for orders through Apple’s website — although, curiously, T-Mobile’s site still lists the full $829 price, at least for the iPhone 12.

That leaves Apple’s unlocked option as the sole holdout — barring any change from Apple, it seems that customers who want to buy an unlocked iPhone will have to pay $30 extra. It’s worth noting that, according to Apple, “all iPhone models are unlocked except those purchased with AT&T Installment Plans.” That means nearly any AT&T, Verizon, or T-Mobile iPhone purchased with that $30 discount is technically unlocked — but customers will only get that discount if they purchase a carrier phone and activate it on that carrier.

iPhone 12 deals — Which model should you get?

The iPhone 12 sports a fast A14 Bionic processor, 5G connectivity, and updated cameras. It also has a new Ceramic Shield glass display that Apple claims is the toughest in the industry. There's also a new MagSafe charging system. 

The iPhone 12 features a 12MP wide lens with a f/1.6 aperture and a 12MP ultra-wide lens with a f/2.4 aperture and 120-degree field of view. It's the first iPhone to include Apple's new 7-element lens, which delivers low light performance. Apple has also added a new Night Mode Time-lapse feature. 

Meanwhile, the iPhone 12 mini is a compact version of the iPhone 12. It sports a 5.4-inch OLED display and the same A14 Bionic CPU found inside the standard iPhone 12. However, its costs $699, which is $100 less than the 6.1-inch iPhone 12. 

The iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max are the successors to the iPhone 11 Pro models. They feature larger screens — 6.1 inches for the Pro and 6.7 inches for the Pro Max — plus triple camera arrays aided by a LiDAR sensor. Otherwise, they share the same processor, 5G connectivity, and charging features as the iPhone 12. 

Tips for finding the best iPhone 12 deals

  • Carriers offer the biggest discounts: Switching carriers remains the best way to find iPhone 12 deals. This is especially true when new iPhone models are announced. That said, AT&T iPhone 12 deals are worth tracking because sometimes its deals apply to both new and existing users. Otherwise, most carriers will require that you port your number to their service to get the best deals. 
  • Keep your old iPhone in top condition: In addition to switching carriers, trading in your old phone is another way to save on the purchase of a new iPhone. As a result, you'll want to keep your current phone in the best shape possible and make sure to save all the boxes, cables, and documentation that originally came with it. That way should you want an iPhone 13, you'll be able to get it without having to pay full retail.
  • Don't forget about refurbs: We normally wouldn't recommend shopping for refurbished smartphones, but Apple's refurbs are the exception. They're refurbished by Apple to work and look like new. More importantly, they're backed by the same 1-year warranty that comes with new Apple devices. 
  • Wait for the next Apple keynote: Apple's next September keynote is a year away. So if the iPhone 13 isn't you thing, here's what we know about the iPhone 14.
