Verizon is offering the iPhone 17 for free"},"content":{"rendered":"

The iPhone 17 was supposed to receive a $100 price cut at Apple’s keynote earlier this month, but instead it underwent a $100 price hike. In fact, most of Apple’s iPhones received a $100 increase this month, but here’s the good news \u2014 there are ways around it.<\/p>\n

For example, right now you can get the iPhone 17 for free at Verizon<\/a> when you open a new line with an eligible unlimited plan. That’s one of the best iPhone 17 deals<\/a> I’ve seen.<\/p>\n

Apple didn’t announce an iPhone 18 this month, so if you want an entry-level iPhone \u2014 the iPhone 17 is your best bet. Unlike the iPhone 16, the base iPhone 17 now comes with a larger, 120Hz display, faster 30W wired charging speeds, brighter screen, double the storage, and a slick selfie camera. The extra storage is especially noteworthy because if you’re shooting a lot of 4K video or shooting a lot of slow motion content, you won\u2019t have to worry about running out of space.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the new 18MP Center Stage camera captures outstanding shots. We put it to the test against the iPhone 16\u2019s selfie camera, and what\u2019s instantly noticeable is that the Center Stage camera offers a wider field of view \u2014 without any details loss, even when it\u2019s cropped after the fact.<\/p>\n

In terms of battery life, in our iPhone 17 review<\/a> Apple’s smartphone lasted 12 hours and 47 minutes, an improvement of 34 minutes over the iPhone 16’s battery. Sure, the Pro models offer more battery life and more processing power, but the iPhone 17 is no slouch and this Verizon deal makes it an epic bargain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The iPhone 17 was supposed to receive a $100 price cut at Apple’s keynote earlier this month, but…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":859864,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[165,74],"class_list":["post-859863","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mobile","tag-mobile","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/859863","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=859863"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/859863\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/859864"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=859863"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=859863"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=859863"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
