If you’ve been eyeing the new iPhone 16 lineup but haven’t been able to bring yourself to make the financial commitment, T-Mobile just dropped a deal you may not be able to resist. From now until Jan. 6, 2025, you can score not one but four iPhone 16 phones for free when you switch to T-Mobile. Plus, you can get each line for just $25 per month. If this sounds like the kind of holiday gift you’re in the mood for, read on to find out just what it takes to get these phones out of the store and under the tree.
To get the deal, there are a few criteria. First, you need to sign up for a new line for each of these phones, so you’ll be adding four new lines to your account. The great news is, you can get these lines for just $25 each, so it’s $100 per month for all four. You’ll also need to trade in a qualifying device. You’ll pay an initial connection charge of $35 per line as well. The device credit will come to you in the form of bill credits spread out over 24 months.

If you don’t quite qualify for this deal, or you just want one device instead of four, T-Mobile has a few other options for the iPhone 16. You can get up to $830 off (via monthly bill credits) when you trade in an eligible device and add a single new line. Alternatively, you can get an iPhone 16 for free when you trade in an eligible device and either add or upgrade to one of the Go5G Next or Go5G Plus plans. Even if you have an older device (iPhone 6 or earlier) you might still be able to get up to $300 back in trade-in credit.

First responders, members of the military and those age 55 and up can get up to $630 off with a trade-in on the Go5G Plus or Go5G Next plan or if they trade in a device and add a new line on the One, Magenta Max, or Magenta Plus plans.

Why this deal matters
It’s not uncommon to see a carrier deal where you can get the latest and greatest phones for free, especially with a qualifying trade-in and when you’re adding a new line. But to be able to get four devices at the same time is fairly rare. The addition of being able to keep those lines at a reasonable per month fee makes this offer well worth considering as holiday gifts for the whole crew.
