Apple’s iPhone 17 now comes in at its ‘lowest ever’ monthly price with a 500GB data allowance, available ahead of Black Friday
Ahead of Black Friday, Apple’s latest iPhone has dropped to less than £30 per month. Carphone Warehouse is now offering the iPhone 17 for £29.99 per month, in what they’re calling its ‘lowest ever price’.
The deal also includes a whopping 500GB data allowance for the price of 100GB on iD Mobile’s 24-month contract. There is an upfront cost of £159, but this keeps the monthly payments low and proves more cost-effective over time.
Black Friday deals are available across all models in Apple’s new iPhone range, each one available with the same generous 500GB tariff. The iPhone 17 Pro is now £49.99 per month with a £29 upfront cost, while the iPhone 17 Pro Max is £53.99 per month and £29 upfront.
For those considering the new super-slim iPhone Air, there’s an added bonus – it comes with a free set of AirPods 4 for £42.99 per month and an upfront cost of £155, reports the Daily Record.

For those who don’t use their phone as much, Sky Mobile’s rival deal might be more appealing. The iPhone 17 is available for a cheaper £25 monthly fee and £12 upfront.
However, it only includes a 100MB data allowance, so anyone needing more will need to upgrade at additional cost.
Our colleagues over at the Daily Express gave the iPhone 17 a perfect five-star rating in their review earlier this year, stating it’s ‘almost impossible not to recommend it’. They continued: “Apple has finally listened and popped a stunning ProMotion screen on its iPhone 17 – that’s the same display as its Pro models feature. To add more bang for its buck, it measures 6.3 inches so it’s also slightly bigger.
“The iPhone 17’s A19 chip not only makes it faster than before but also improves its all-important battery life. I’ve easily been getting through a day and night with power still left in the tank. When watching movies, you get around eight hours of extra life compared to the iPhone 16. Should the battery indicator start glowing red, the iPhone 17 gets up to 50% back in the tank in just 20 minutes.
“The better screen, more power from the A19 chip, longer battery and improved cameras are all upgrades general consumers want, love and need, and that’s why I think this is such a fabulous phone. My only negatives are that it now only comes in one size – you’ll need to buy the iPhone Air or Pro Max if you want a bigger screen – and it looks identical to the iPhone 16. But if you’ve been pondering an upgrade, this is without doubt the year to splash out.”
