They dropped to around £48 earlier this year but the price is now at an all-time low of just £35 a month. The £35 deal for the brand’s range-topping phone is available on Sky Mobile and brings saves over £15 a month compared to the launch deals for the phone. The iPhone 16 Pro Max is, for one more week, the most tech-packed iPhone on the market. It was the first phone to feature Apple Intelligence, the brand’s next-generation AI. It includes new AI notification summaries, writing tips and a new virtual assistant interface. The phone also includes Apple’s more powerful A18 Pro chip, a larger 6.9-inch Super Retina XDR display with ProMotion, and an upgraded Pro 48MP camera complete with 5x telephoto lens. Priced at £1,199 at launch, the best deals for the handset only have dropped to around £1,100. The monthly contract price is the lowest ever at £35 with Sky Mobile, which is £7 cheaper than the lowest price Black Friday deal on the phone. Apple is gearing up to launch the new iPhone 17 Pro Max in less than a week. The new flagship phone will be revealed alongside a new-look iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro. A fourth phone, the ultra-thin 5.5mm iPhone Air 17, is also expected to join the lineup as a direct competitor to the new Samsung S25 Ultra. The new iPhone will be revealed in a live stream at 6pm UK time on Tuesday 9 September. Pre orders will open on 12 September in the UK here and the first phones are expected to arrive a week later.
