As for the AT&T deal, here’s how it works. The list price for the Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max with 256GB storage is $1,199, while the smaller-screened iPhone 16 Pro with 128GB costs $999. When you buy the iPhone 16 Pro Max using the AT&T installment plan, that works out at $33.34 per month across 36 months.

AT&T Wireless and Verizon are running Black Friday and Cyber Monday specials that run through Dec. 2 — and the iPhone 16 Pro is highly incentivized.
