T-Mobile Is Already Teasing Its Apple iPhone 18 "On Us" Promotion Ahead of the Official Preorder Launch

Apple's newest lineup of iPhone 18 phones, which includes the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and the all new iPhone 18 Duo, was announced during Apple's "Surprise and Shine" Event on September 9.

Get an Apple iPhone 18 Pro "On Us" at T-Mobile

Head over to T-Mobile's online store and you'll see the " Get iPhone 18 Pro On Us " deal promoted right on the homepage. You can't actually sign up for the deal just yet but the details are already listed. As expected, you'll have to either switch carriers and port in your number or trade in an eligible phone in any condition. You'll also have to sign up for the Experience Beyond plan, with the discount applied as bill credits over a 36 month period. There is a one-time $35 connection charge.

The Experience Beyond plan costs $100 per month for a single line with AutoPay (plus taxes and fees). The plan gives you unlimited talk, text, and 5G premium data. Other perks include Netflix (Standard with ads) and Hulu subscriptions, Apple TV for $3/mo, unlimited mobile hotspot, T-Satellite, phone upgrade eligibility every year, and a 5 year price guarantee. International travelers can also benefit from unlimited text and 30GB of high-speed data in Canada and Mexico and unlimited text and 15GB of high-speed data in over 215 other countries.

So far only the iPhone 18 Pro is part of the promotion, but the rest may follow suit

Currently the only promotion listed is for the iPhone 18 Pro. There's a good chance, however, that we'll see similar discounts for the iPhone 18 Pro Max and the iPhone Duo. The iPhone Duo would be an especially attractive offer, since the phone will carry a sticker price of $1,999 . Usually with these types of promotions you end up paying more for the phone compared to buying it outright, but who wants to spend that much money right out of the gate for a phone? If you intend to stick with T-Mobile's 5G network anyways, then that's all the more reason to start using Apple's newest iPhone immediately.

The iPhone Duo is Apple's first foldable phone, the rest are incremental upgrades

The Apple iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max upgrades the APU to the new Apple A20 Pro processor built on a new 2-nanometer process technology. Apple claims 40% greater graphics performanceo ver the previous iPhone. Other notable upgrades include a main camera that's now equipped with variable aperture from f/1.48 to f/4.0 and faster 60W charging.

The iPhone Duo will be a foldable smartphone with two displays: a 5.4" screen when the phone is folded and a larger 7.6" screen when it's unfolded. This will be Apple's thinnest iPhone ever (in unfolded mode). It will be equipped with the same Apple A20 Pro processor found in the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max.
