Shopping for a new phone or carrier can be exciting, but it can also be a serious headache. Major carriers like Verizon and AT&T offer plenty of substantial savings, but it can be confusing to figure out how to take advantage of them — and you certainly don’t want any major surprises on your bill after you’ve already signed a multi-year contract. To help T-Mobile customers get the most bang for their buck without scrolling through page after page of fine print, we’ve collected and broken down some of the best offers available right now below. These include massive discounts on some of the best phones of 2025, as well as a handful of deals that can knock a few dollars off your service plan at the end of the month.

It’s worth noting that carriers constantly update their deals. The best offers usually happen around new phone launches — typically February or March for Samsung Galaxy S phones, September for Apple iPhones and fall for Google Pixel phones — and around holiday shopping events, like Black Friday. We’ll continue to update this page as offers come and go and new phones hit shelves, so be sure to check back again to find the latest deals at any given time.

Best T-Mobile phone deals

Many of T-Mobile’s phone deals are available to new and existing customers, although trade-ins are often required to get the advertised prices. Keep in mind the deals are split across 24 months of bill credits, meaning you’ll need to remain a T-Mobile customer for at least two years for the phone to get paid off as the terms state. If you cancel before that period is over, you’ll be responsible for any remaining charges.

Up to $1,000 off with trade-in

T-Mobile is offering a few different trade-in discounts depending on which service plan you have.

Those on a Go5G Plus plan will still get up to $830 off with an eligible trade-in, which scores you the basic model for free. If you’re on a basic plan, the most you’ll save via trade-in is $300. T-Mobile is also offering up to $830 off when both trading in an old device and activating a new line of service.

FAQ

Are T-Mobile deals available to existing customers? Or only new ones?

Up until recently, T-Mobile heavily favored new customers with its best deals, leaving behind folks who were loyal to the carrier. That’s since changed, and now most of the offers are available for both new and existing customers under the same terms.

How do T-Mobile’s discounts work?

It’s easy to see up to $1,000 off the price of something and get excited, but you’ll want to make sure you know what you’re signing up for. T-Mobile applies these discounts as bill credits that are usually spread out across 24 months. Sometimes, part of the discount amount is given in the form of a prepaid gift card (for a trade-in) and the rest is done as bill credits, but that’s specified when it’s happening.

What happens if you leave T-Mobile before the 24 months are up?

If you don’t stick with T-Mobile through the full 24 months of bill credits, you’ll be responsible for all the remaining charges. Before canceling or transferring your service to another carrier, be sure to reach out to T-Mobile to understand what you’ll actually owe, to ensure you can cover that before making the move.
