Lease? Yes, that’s right. Unlike most contracts, which spread the cost of the handset over the next two or three years, this is a lease deal – so you’ll be paying to use the handset, and then handing it back at the end of the agreed term.
Over the course of a two-year contract, at £4.99 per month, you’ll spend just £120 to use the latest-and-greatest iPhone from Apple. If you’d rather own the iPhone 15 outright, we’ve compiled a list of the best iPhone 15 deals and the best iPhone 15 Pro deals, so you can compare this latest discount from Affordable Mobiles with more traditional pay monthly contracts.
Unsure if the iPhone 15 is the right choice for you? Our in-depth iPhone 15 review has everything you need to know.
The Affordable Mobiles deal is one of the best we’ve seen as you’ll only pay just £815.76 over the length of the contract. That’s only £16.76 more than the £799 you’d need to pay at the Apple Store just for the handset.
The big catch is that you won’t be able to keep the iPhone at the end of the 24-month contract so you’ll either have to hand the phone back or upgrade to a new leased phone. You’ll also be responsible for keeping the phone in good condition so make sure you look after it or you’ll be forced to pay to get it repaired.
It’s a better deal offered by most other companies such as Vodafone, which will see you pay more than £1,471 overall for a iPhone 15 contract or Sky Mobile, which is offering a 36-month contract which costs more than £900 at the end of the contract.
If you’re happy with leasing a phone, you’ll be greeted with a powerful 48MP main camera – that’s the same humongous sensor that was introduced with the iPhone 14 Pro last year.
Finally, the iPhone 15 range boasts the clever Dynamic Island notch introduced with the iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max. This clever feature adds shortcuts to apps running in the background to a small window that surrounds the cut-out for the front-facing camera and Face ID system.
You’ll also get the A16 system-on-a-chip, which is now powering the standard iPhone series, promising faster performance, especially for those who push the silicon to the limits with graphics-intensive mobile games.
