The iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max are officially available to preorder at T-Mobile today and, as expected, the carrier has some great discounts for prospective upgraders.
Firstly is perhaps the most impressive deal. It’s a promotion for new customers specifically – one that lets you include an iPhone 18 Pro alongside a new line on the carrier’s Experience Beyond 2.0 plan. Impressively, no trade-ins are required here, which makes this a potentially good option if you’re coming in fresh from another carrier without a decent phone ready to hand over.
The other discount, and one that’s eligible for existing customers, is a trade-in rebate of up to $1,200 off. That covers both the iPhone 18 Pro and the 18 Pro Max, so it’s possible to get a significant discount on either device. As you’d imagine, however, you will need the associated plan here; in this case, a line on either the Experience Beyond 2.0 plan or the legacy Go5G Next plan.

Is T-Mobile’s opening deal good?
It’s roughly in line with what the carrier’s offered on the high-end iPhones in the past couple of months. That said, it’s a little better than usual simply because the iPhone 18 Pro is $100 more expensive than the previous generation. It’s kind of ‘adjusted for inflation’ so to speak, which is welcome when you’re paying so much for a plan.
Of the two deals, the switching offer is definitely a highlight, as several other carriers still require trade-in criteria to be eligible for a similar discount. By comparison, the trade-in rebate is much more ‘standard fare’, but it is roughly equivilent with what the other major carriers are offering right now, so it’s still a very good deal.
