If you're looking for deals on the iPhone 13, we've found the best prices and discounts from this month. The iPhone 13 was launched in September 2021 and since then, it's been one of the most popular iPhone generations. There are plenty of iPhone 13 deals to choose from today, including different colours, storage space, SIM free or on contract with a SIM plan.

There are four new iPhone 13 phones in the range, including the iPhone 13 mini, iPhone 13, iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max. The iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 mini are available in red, starlight, midnight, blue and pink. Meanwhile, the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max can be picked up in graphite, gold, silver and sierra blue. Alpine green is the latest colour which was released in 2022 alongside the launch of the iPhone SE 2022 (see the best iPhone SE 2022 deals here).

Storage on handsets ranges from 128GB right up to a gargantuan 1TB on the Pro models, so there's plenty of choice for users to customise their own iPhone 13. We've found the best places to buy the iPhone 13 right now in the UK at both retailers and network/mobile providers and including handset and contract offers.

P.S. If you're interested in a newer iPhone, Apple announced the release of the iPhone 14 in September 2022. For more details about the iPhone 14, check out these iPhone 14 deals.

Best iPhone 13 deals UK

The 6.1-inch iPhone 13 had some great offers on it at the time of launch, including a sweet offer from Sky that puts the phone in your hand for free upfront. For big data lovers Vodafone's 250GB of data plan with unlimited calls and texts looks very attractive at just £44 upfront and £39 per month.

Best iPhone 13 Mini deals UK

The small form factor iPhone 13 (5.4-inch screen) is perfect for those who like a more compact phone. It's also the cheapest of the new iPhone 13 handsets and like most Apple products, you can purchase the iPhone 13 Mini handset or on a contract with free Apple TV+ and Apple Music subscriptions.

Best iPhone 13 Pro deals UK

If you're a serious phone user, the iPhone 13 Pro device is a strong match, especially so if you are into photography. Most providers are offering the iPhone 13 Pro with an upfront cost of £99 and monthly costs typically start at the lowest price of £44.99 – this is the offer from iD Mobile which has unlimited data, calls and texts.

Best iPhone 13 Pro Max deals UK

For iPhone enthusiasts who also love big real screen real estate, the iPhone 13 Pro Max is the perfect fit. This is Apple's flagship device, so it does cost more than the other phones. Three's deal is the best we think right now, placing the phone in your hand for £39 upfront, and also supplying 100GB data as well as unlimited calls and texts for £55 per month.

Mobiles.co.uk is, in T3's opinion, the most underated online phone store in the UK, which is why it should be somewhere everyone checks out for iPhone 13 deals before pulling the trigger. Frequently one of the cheapest places to pick up new handsets on contract.

iPhone 13 at Mobilephonesdirect.co.uk

iPhone 13 at <a href="https://www.awin1.com/awclick.php?awinmid=20659&awinaffid=103504&clickref=hawk-custom-tracking&p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mobilephonesdirect.co.uk%2F" data-link-merchant="mobilephonesdirect.co.uk"" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Mobilephonesdirect.co.uk
Another lesser-known online phone shop but one that T3 is a big fan of thanks to its cheap deals, Mobilephonesdirect.co.uk is taking iPhone 13 orders right now and seems an obvious place to check out before pulling the trigger on an upgrade.

iPhone 13 at O2

iPhone 13 at <a href="https://www.awin1.com/awclick.php?awinmid=3235&awinaffid=103504&clickref=hawk-custom-tracking&p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.o2.co.uk%2F" data-link-merchant="o2.co.uk"" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">O2

Tesco Mobile has created a strong reputation for itself in terms of both phone contracts and SIM plan contracts, so it's well worth scoping out right now for iPhone 13 offers in the UK. Tesco Mobile offers a wide range of plan lengths, too, making it a good choice for those who want to spread the cost of their upgrade out. Tesco Mobile runs off the O2 network.

iPhone 13 at Three

iPhone 13 at Virgin Mobile

iPhone 13 at <a href="https://www.awin1.com/awclick.php?awinmid=6399&awinaffid=103504&clickref=hawk-custom-tracking&p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.virginmedia.com%2Fmobile" data-link-merchant="virginmedia.com"" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Virgin Mobile

iPhone 13 at Vodafone

iPhone 13 at <a href="https://www.awin1.com/awclick.php?awinmid=3235&awinaffid=103504&clickref=hawk-custom-tracking&p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.o2.co.uk%2F" data-link-merchant="o2.co.uk"" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Vodafone
Vodafone is one of the best networks in the country for reach and 5G speeds, factors which make it a good place to lock-in an iPhone 13 upgrade. All handsets are being sold with SIM plans through Vodafone and users can customise what they pay upfront from £29 up to £679, as well as choose their contract length, too, with 12, 24 and 36 months plans available.

iPhone 13 deals UK: T3's analysis

Having a browse of the iPhone 13 deals available has left T3 very enthused, as there are a lot of different ways for people to upgrade to one of the new handsets, and especially so if you want to buy the phone with a SIM plan.

Our number one tip, though, for Apple phone users who are looking to jump to iPhone 13 is to not underestimate the value of a trade-in. An Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max in top storage spec and good condition will bag you £610 in trade-in value, and while other Apple phones will get you less money, it's still a great way to cut hundreds of pounds off your iPhone 13 order.

Apple itself is running a trade-in program, along with plenty of major UK networks. To see trade-in prices for handsets, tablets, Macs and Apple Watches, head on over to Apple's official trade-in page.

Splitting the cost of a new iPhone 13 seems like a smart choice to T3 right now, and Vodafone has really caught our attention with its iPhone 13 offering as it allows people to dictate exactly how much money they want to pay up front, how much they want to pay monthly and how long their contract will be, with 12, 24 and 36-month contracts available.
