FULL STORY
======================================================================

With the Black Friday deals looming and some early ones likely to go live 
rather soon, I think its a really good time to keep an eye out for a great 
iPhone deal. 

Specifically, Im thinking of the iPhone 16 series, which should also include 
the iPhone 16e . The standard iPhone 16 has already received a price cut as 
the iPhone 17 series is now Apples darling smartphone. 

And while both the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max have been 
discontinued, given my years of covering both phones and deals, Id place a 
very solid bet well see those phones pop up with retailers like Amazon, Best 
Buy, Currys, and others at cut prices, with such stores likely looking to 
move inventory. 

 At the time of writing, there aren't many deals on unused iPhone 16 models, 
though you can score some well-priced refurbished models . Do check out the 
widget below for the best iPhone 16 prices available right now. 

Now Im a sucker for anything new, but taking myself out of the tech 
journalism bubble, I can fully appreciate that all the iPhone 16 models are 
still some of the best phones you can buy today. In fact, Im still using my 
iPhone 16 Pro Max while I get around to fully transferring over to an iPhone 
17; its hard to give up on such a capable phone that just works for 
everything I need from a mobile device. 

So I think with a bit of savvy shopping and deals spotting, in which 
TechRadar is here to help, grabbing an iPhone 16 Pro model during or even 
before Black Friday and Cyber Monday, could be one of the smartest and most 
cost-effective ways to get an iOS-based phone thatll run Apple Intelligence , 
console-quality games, offer superb photography and still top-notch video 
capture. 

Ive said before how I feel that recent iPhones have gotten to a level where 
it feels like theres not much more that can be added to make a significant 
difference to their experience and capabilities, at least on the Pro phone 
side. As such, I think opting for a last-generation iPhone, particularly the 
Pro models, for a great price might be one of the most sensible tech moves of 
the year.
