Walmart may have come up with the right price. It’s selling the iPhone SE (2020) for $99 (opens in new tab), or $50 less than the phone’s normal $149 cost. The iPhone SE on sale at Walmart is tied to Straight Talk for its wireless service. It’s that sub-$100 price tag that’s caught our eye. Again, the iPhone SE 2022 is the newer model, but if you’re looking for a device to serve as the first phone for your kid, this particular iPhone SE model certainly beats a hand-me down. The A13 Bionic still delivers solid performance, and the 2020 model of the iPhone SE works with iOS 16, so you can run the latest software features on this particular handset. It’s also worth noting that many of the iPhone Black Friday deals we’ve spotted so far have been pretty limited when it comes to the iPhone SE 2022. Verizon is offering the iPhone SE 2022 for free (opens in new tab) when you open a new line of data and get one of the carrier’s unlimited plans, while T-Mobile requires a trade-in and a new line of data for a free iPhone SE (opens in new tab). Visible charges $329 for the iPhone SE 2022, though it offers a $300 gift card (opens in new tab), too. In that context, $99 for an older iPhone SE 2022 is pretty attractive for a certain kind of user. Looking for more Black Friday phone deals? We’re tracking them through the holiday weekend, so be sure to check back to find savings on all different kinds of phones, including more fully featured iPhones.
