Looking to upgrade your tech for the holiday season? AT&T is offering a deal on the iPhone 16 Pro where you can save by trading in an eligible device.

The discount comes in the form of monthly bill credits, meaning the savings are spread out over a set period, typically 36 months. You’ll pay the full price of the iPhone 16 Pro upfront, but the trade-in credit within 3 billing cycles will be applied as monthly bill credits, reducing your overall cost. This allows you to enjoy the new device right away while benefiting from savings over time rather than a one-time discount. With up to $1,000 in credits over 36 months, it’s an affordable way to upgrade.

Whether you’re shopping for a new phone, smartwatch or tablet, AT&T has great deals to keep you up to date with the latest tech. Plus, you’ll have access to flexible payment plans, discounts with trade-ins and a variety of devices to choose from. For those looking to upgrade your tech or finding a gift for someone special, AT&T makes it easy to get an iPhone 16 while saving you money.
