Retailer EE has introduced a significant price reduction for the iPhone 17 Pro, offering the device at its lowest rate yet. Customers can now secure the smartphone for £32.29 per month, paired with EE’s 150GB Essentials tariff, which has also seen a price drop from £37 to £29 monthly. Over a two-year period, this represents a total savings of £192.
The overall cost for this plan amounts to £61.29 per month, along with a £30 upfront charge. Notably, EE is incentivizing trade-ins, offering up to £480 for customers who exchange their old handsets. Additional options include tariffs with unlimited data and bundled services like free subscriptions to Apple TV or Apple Music, though these plans come at a higher monthly cost.
Starting in April 2026, users should be aware that the £29 tariff will increase to £31.50, with another planned increase to £34 in April 2027.
In response to EE’s offering, Sky Mobile has launched its own deal for the iPhone 17 Pro. This option is available for £34 per month with a £12 upfront cost, but it is limited to a 100MB data allowance. Users requiring more data may need to consider Sky’s additional plans, which range from 1GB for £5 to unlimited data for £22 monthly. Both deals feature the 256GB model of the iPhone 17 Pro, available in Cosmic Orange, Deep Blue, or Silver.
For those preferring to purchase the iPhone outright, the retail price remains consistent across major outlets, including Amazon and Argos, both of which list the device at £1,099. The iPhone 17 Pro has been characterized as Apple’s most powerful smartphone, equipped with a 6.3-inch display, A19 Pro chip, and a 48MP camera.
In a review by David Snelling, Technology Editor at the Daily Express, the device received high praise during its launch in California. He stated, “The iPhone 17 Pro packs quite a punch. It finally looks different, gets improved processing, longer battery life and will keep cooler under pressure.” He highlighted the impressive camera system and the device’s enhanced display capabilities, noting that the A19 Pro chip is approximately 50 percent faster than the previous A17 Pro chip.
Despite the positive reviews, Snelling pointed out that the starting price of £1,099 is significantly higher than the standard iPhone 17, which may lead some consumers to consider the more affordable options available in Apple’s lineup.
As retailers continue to offer competitive pricing in January sales, both EE and Sky Mobile are vying for consumer attention with attractive deals on the latest iPhone model.
