Comcast Uses $1,300 iPhone Deal to Push Mobile Plus

Comcast

PHILADELPHIA, PA — Comcast Corp. (Nasdaq: CMCSA) is offering subsidies of as much as $1,300 on Apple’s newest iPhones as the cable and broadband provider uses high-value device promotions to drive adoption of its Xfinity Mobile Plus and Comcast Business Mobile services.

New and existing customers with a Mobile Plus line can receive an iPhone 18 Pro Max at no device cost with an eligible trade-in, or receive as much as $1,300 off another new iPhone model with an eligible trade-in. Mobile Plus customers without a trade-in can receive $400 off the latest iPhone lineup.

Xfinity Mobile and Comcast Business Mobile will carry the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max and Apple’s first foldable phone, the iPhone Duo.

Preorders for the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max begin at 8 a.m. ET Sept. 12, with availability starting Sept. 18. The iPhone Duo will be available for preorder Oct. 16 and go on sale Oct. 23.

The device incentives reinforce Comcast’s effort to bundle wireless service more closely with its broader connectivity business. Xfinity Mobile’s Mobile Plus plan costs $45 a month and includes annual device upgrades, device protection and unlimited data in more than 215 destinations, according to the company.

Comcast said Xfinity Mobile combines access to 23 million WiFi hotspots with a nationwide 5G network.

The company is extending the new Apple lineup and device offers to small businesses through Comcast Business Mobile, which is available exclusively to Comcast Business Internet customers.

Businesses can choose between Pro and Standard unlimited plans and mix the two across accounts with as many as 20 lines.

The Pro plan includes unlimited high-speed data with priority during network congestion, 4K UHD video and 40 GB of 5G LTE hotspot data. It also includes Elite Upgrade, allowing businesses to exchange devices as many as twice within a 12-month period while Comcast covers the remaining balance on the previous device, along with device protection through Xfinity Mobile Care.
