Black Friday 2024 AT&T deals: Roundup

Black Friday 2024 AT&T deals: Roundup
Black Friday is finally over and we saw some amazing Black Friday phone deals.

There were some pretty incredible promos on unlocked models, but major carriers were also tempting us with awesome discounts. If you're an AT&T user, it was a great time to get a new Galaxy S24+ or iPhone 16 for $0.00/mo. with eligible trade-ins and unlimited plans!

These, along with many other Black Friday phone promos from AT&T, made headlines. Of course, this wasn't the only carrier to offer impressive price cuts on the hottest smartphones. You can also browse Verizon’s Black Friday deals and T-Mobile’s Black Friday deals to see what they did this past November.


Can I get a free iPhone from AT&T on Black Friday?


Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max
8.0

Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max


The Good

  • Refined titanium finish
  • Improved Photographic Styles and video features are welcome
  • Slightly larger display is a noticeable upgrade
  • Speakers sound great

The Bad

  • Grounded, maybe a bit boring color options
  • Camera button is good, but its positioning is a bit iffy
  • USB 3 on the phone, no USB 3 cable in the box

On Black Friday, one could get a free iPhone by committing to AT&T as their carrier. To qualify, you needed to trade in a relatively recent phone in good working condition to receive enough trade-in credit to cover the cost of the new iPhone.

If this sounds good to you, be prepared for 2025; AT&T offered a free iPhone 16 Pro with qualifying service and trade-in. But if you want to go for the biggest and best Apple handset for 2024 –the iPhone 16 Pro Max, that was going to cost you $5.56/month for 36 months -- with trade-in and service, of course.

The Good

  • Narrower than other foldables
  • Very sturdy hinge
  • Polished software, long updates

The Bad

  • Thicker and heavier than rivals
  • More pronounced "crease" than others
  • Expensive

In 2024, AT&T offered several excellent deals on phones, including numerous BOGO (buy one, get one) offers and discounts on top Galaxy and iPhone flagship models. As is common with these promotions, most required a qualifying trade-in and the activation of a new line with an eligible 5G plan.

The Galaxy Z Fold 6, if you're after foldables and you're a Samsung fan, could be yours for as low as $25.00/mo (with eligible trade-in, of course).

Another amazing Samsung handset: the Galaxy S24 Ultra was $1000 off. It's big, fast, it packs a respectable camera, and has a stylus.

As you see above, we were getting some top-notch discounts that brought along some serious devices for free with a trade in.

If you're on team Google, no worries: the brand-new Pixel 9 could be all yours without a trade in, just for $10.99/mo. with AT&T. The Pixel 9 Pro was at $0.00, but you needed to trade in your previous phone, if it's eligible for the operation.

The biggest, baddest Pixel of 2024 – the Pixel 9 Pro XL was getting the same treatment as its smaller Pro sibling.
