Best unlocked iPhones under $700
Researched by Deal.ai's shopping agent across stores on November 15, 2026. Prices below are today's.
Start here: iPhone 14 Pro Max — the sweet spot under this cap. Big ProMotion screen, a 3x telephoto camera, and a chipset that still feels quick years on, for less than a plain newer phone.
Who each other pick suits:
- iPhone 14 — the safe everyday choice if you want a lighter, smaller phone with current-enough cameras and long software support.
- iPhone 13 mini — for anyone who misses a genuinely small phone that still fits one hand.
- iPhone 12 mini — the cheapest sensible way into a compact unlocked iPhone.
- iPhone SE (3rd gen) — for people who want a Touch ID home button and a familiar, simple phone.
Skip anything older than the 12s: iOS support is running out.
