Here’s how to buy the brand-new Apple iPhone Xs, iPhone Xs Max, and iPhone Xr

by John_A

After months of rumors and speculation, Apple has finally taken the wraps off of the latest and greatest iPhones, the iPhone Xs, iPhone Xs Max, and iPhone Xr. The three iPhones boast a ton of new features, including a more modern design on the lower-cost iPhone and improvements to the processing power of the phones.

Of course, you might be wondering just how to get your hands on the new iPhone models. That is why we put together this guide. Here’s how, when, and where to buy the new iPhone Xs, iPhone Xs Max, and iPhone Xr.

Unlocked

As you might expect, you’ll be able to buy the new iPhone Xs, iPhone Xs Max, and iPhone Xr directly from Apple unlocked, if you so choose. From Apple, the iPhone Xs and Xs Max will be available for pre-order starting on September 14, while shipping begins on September 21. Pricing for the iPhone Xs and iPhone Xs Max can be found below.

  • iPhone Xs 64GB: $999, or $49.91 per month with the iPhone upgrade program.
  • iPhone Xs 256GB: $1,149, or $56.16 per month with the iPhone upgrade program.
  • iPhone Xs 512GB: $1,349, or $64.50 per month with the iPhone upgrade program.
  • iPhone Xs Max 64GB: $1,099, or $54.08 per month with the iPhone upgrade program.
  • iPhone Xs Max 256GB: $1,249, or $60.33 per month with the iPhone upgrade program.
  • iPhone Xs Max 512GB: $1,449, or $68.66 per month with the iPhone upgrade program.

In addition to the iPhone Xs and iPhone Xs Max, Apple also unveiled the new iPhone Xr, which does away with some of the features in the iPhone Xs, but comes at a lower price. The iPhone Xr, however, won’t be available at the same time as the iPhone Xs — it’ll be up for pre-order starting on October 19. Pricing for the iPhone Xr can be found below, though we’re not currently sure if the iPhone Xr will be available unlocked given the fact that there doesn’t seem to be an unlocked option on the Apple website — only carrier options. We’ll update this article with more information when we have it. If it is available unlocked, it will likely offer the same pricing as carriers, which can be found below.

  • iPhone Xr 64GB: $749, or $37.41 per month with the iPhone Upgrade Program.
  • iPhone Xr 128GB: $799, or $39.50 per month with the iPhone Upgrade Program.
  • iPhone Xr 256GB: $899, or $43.66 per month with the iPhone Upgrade Program.

Apple likely won’t be the only one to offer the new iPhones unlocked. It’s likely we’ll also see the new devices pop up at Amazon, Best Buy, and other places too.
