Why choose the AT&T network for your iPhone 16?
When you upgrade to the newest iPhone, you’ll want to make sure you have a fast, reliable wireless network that can support its features. Having a faster network means you’ll be able to stream videos, play games and share photos more efficiently. Every current AT&T unlimited plan includes access to 5G service for no additional cost, so you can make the most of your new with 5G speeds.1
Plus, with AT&T Next Up Anytime2, you can upgrade to the latest iPhone every year. For an extra $10 per month, you can upgrade your cell phone anytime (after making your first payment) without having to worry about the remaining balance of your installment plan, so long as you turn in your current phone. Every year, or once you’ve paid off one-third of your phone’s cost, you’ll be eligible for our smartphone deals (maximum three upgrades in a 12-month period).
