The best iPhone SE prices, deals and contracts
Our price comparison technology will find you the best value iPhone SE deals and prices for SIM-free and contracts.
Tracking down the best value iPhone SE deals with the lowest prices is a smart move in 2020. Unlike most of Apple's wallet-busting devices, the iPhone SE price is very, very affordable. And better yet, the phone feels far from cheap and is actually more than ready to handle anything you can throw at it.
On this page, we'll help you find an iPhone SE contract that works for your budget. So if you need lots of data for streaming and gaming on the go, then we can help. Or if you're never far from Wi-Fi and can get by with small amounts of data we can help you really drive those monthly costs down too.
Alternatively, given the unlocked iPhone SE price on its own without a contract, also known as SIM-free, starts at just £419, another viable option is just buying the phone on its own, then pairing it with a SIM only deal.
Should you buy an iPhone SE?
If you want a cheaper or mid-range phone that can still keep up with phones costing more than double the price, the new iPhone SE is a fantastic choice. It might have a similar chassis design to the older iPhone 8, but inside it's rocking the same A13 Bionic Chip as the latest iPhone 11 range. It's seriously fast and can even run intensive games and apps with ease. The camera is superb too although you won't be getting the same levels of zoom or Night Mode from the more expensive iPhones.
It does only have a 4.7-inch display, but if you're not planning on gaming and watching lots of full-length movies you might not find this an issue. Heck, we love the smaller size compared to most modern phones as most users will be able to reach everything on the screen while holding it one hand and it's much more pocket friendly. Oh and unlike modern iPhones, it still has a home button with an extremely fast and reliable fingerprint reader. You're also getting wireless charging. No doubt about it, this is the best value iPhone Apple has ever released.
How to use our iPhone SE price comparison chart
Simply select the different comparison chart tabs below to see the different types of iPhone SE deals:
- Plans: These are your contract-type iPhone SE deals. Usually lasting 24 months, these allow you to spread the cost of the device out while also bundling it with a network package that includes your data, texts and call minutes. The filter options at the side allow you to sort by costs, data amounts and more.
- Unlocked: Don't want to be tied down to a contract? These options allow you to just buy the phone on its own. No commitment required and a tempting option when the iPhone SE price starts so low. If you're already on a SIM only deal, just pop your current SIM into this phone. If not...
- SIM only: When buying an unlocked phone outright you'll be wanting a SIM to go with it. We don't mean one of those old pay-as-you-go ones either. Many of the best SIM only deals here start with just a 1-month rolling contract. Although, if you want to go big on data and don't mind signing up for 12 months maybe, you can get some fantastic prices too. You can use these SIM only deals on any phone too, the deals below are not tied to the iPhone SE.
