Apple has finally unveiled the new iPhone 13 series, boasting a number of awesome new features and improved performance over last year’s iPhone 12 series. They don’t offer a radical redesign like the iPhone 14 is expected to do, but they are the best iPhones ever built. Of course, because of that, you may be wondering where to buy the iPhone 13 series.

That’s why we’ve put together this guide. Want to get your hands on one of the iPhone 13 devices? Here’s everything you need to know.

Where to buy the iPhone 13 unlocked

As in previous years, there are multiple iPhone 13 models. There’s the standard iPhone 13, along with the iPhone 13 Mini, iPhone 13 Pro, and iPhone 13 Pro Max. The phones are now available, and the pre-order period has ended. As you might expect, they’re available for purchase straight from Apple. Here’s a rundown of the pricing of the new phones.

  • iPhone 13: $799, or $33.29 per month for 24 months
  • iPhone 13 Mini: $699, or $29.12 per month for 24 months
