I recently found this subreddit and it’s really nice! I currently have an iPhone 13 Pro Max that’s cracked to high heaven on the back and with the recent information of tariffs on imported Chinese goods, i assume that tech will get more expensive (not looking to discuss this here as it’s not the sub for it).
What are the best, most reliable places to buy an iPhone 16 Pro Max unlocked? It’s about $1300 after taxes on the Apple website, and I’d get a whopping $40 cash back with my Apple Card.
I’ve seen some on Facebook but it feels too good to be true, as cheap as $900 or so. As someone with computer science degrees, i feel like i should know more about shopping for tech and not getting scammed but alas.
UPDATE: I've rounded up the best deals below, will be updating this regularly:

i’m planning to upgrade this year and i’d rather buy unlocked so i can switch carriers later. anyone know which stores usually have the biggest discounts on unlocked iphones for black friday? i’m seeing some early deals but not sure if it’s better to wait for the actual day. any tips or past experience would help.
I'm with Cricket Wireless and shopping for a new iPhone that I can use with Cricket. I assume I'd have to just buy from the Apple Store for a new, unlocked iPhone but if there are other options, please share!
Hey, I’m an incoming international student moving to the US soon. Looking for the cheapest way to get a new iPhone (no trade-in, since I won’t have a US number or an eligible old device).
Preferably something with a carrier that allows unlocking in 3–6 months. Any tips on where to buy or which carriers to consider?
