Buying a new iPhone is usually an expensive venture, but thanks to an ongoing promotion at Verizon, you can get a free Apple iPhone 13 after following a few basic steps. Although it's no longer the newest smartphone on the market, the iPhone 13 remains one of the best handsets you can buy in 2022. It has a modern design, Apple's excellent A15 processor, fantastic cameras, and reliable battery life. And thanks to the new green color that was released in March, the iPhone 13 is offered in more styles than ever before.
But the way an iPhone holds up after months of availability is a double-edged sword. It retains its fast performance, long endurance, and robust feature set. But it also keeps its high cost. The iPhone 13 launched with a starting price of $799 in September 2021, and here in May 2022, it retains that exact same price tag. At least, it does if you're buying the iPhone 13 unlocked. If you're OK buying through a carrier and jumping through a few hoops, it's possible to get the iPhone 13 for substantially less.
One such deal is currently found at Verizon. If you visit the Verizon website right now, one of the many offers available lets you get a new iPhone 13 for free. Seriously. You need to meet a few requirements and plan on being a Verizon customer for a few years. but assuming you can satisfy all the terms, it is possible to end up with a free iPhone 13.
How To Get A Free iPhone 13 From Verizon
To get started with Verizon's free iPhone 13 promo, you'll first need to purchase an iPhone 13 with one of Verizon's Unlimited plans — including Play More Unlimited, Do More Unlimited, and Get More Unlimited. The best part? The deal is open to new and existing customers alike. People joining Verizon simply need to add a new line with their iPhone 13. Existing customers can add a line or upgrade an existing line to be eligible.
Assuming that's all OK with you, the next step is to trade in your old smartphone within 30 days of purchasing your iPhone 13. Only select devices are eligible for the full $800 credit that makes the iPhone 13 free. Thankfully, Verizon is very generous with which handsets qualify for the full credit amount. If you have an old iPhone, trading in an iPhone 12, iPhone 11, iPhone XS, and even an iPhone X nets the entire $800 credit. If you're trading in an old Android device, you get the full $800 with a Galaxy S10, Pixel 5, and OnePlus 8 (just to name a few).
If all of that still sounds good, the rest of the promotion is a piece of cake. Select the phone you have, send it to Verizon, and you'll start receiving monthly bill credits to cancel out the cost of the iPhone 13. The only other thing to be mindful of is that the bill credits are paid over 36 months. If you leave Verizon before the 36 months are up, the credits stop and you need to pay the remaining amount owed for the iPhone 13. Are those a lot of hoops to jump through? Yes. But if you're already on Verizon or have been thinking about switching, it's a promo that's hard to pass up. Add or upgrade a line, trade-in your old phone, and you're on your way to getting an Apple iPhone 13 for free.
