Must sign up for at least one month of Verizon Unlimited prepaid service ($60 per month)

Apple iPhone 14 Plus 256GB

The Apple iPhone 14 Plus, released in October 2022, remains a relevant choice despite being two generations behind the latest model. It's an excellent option for those not interested in Apple Intelligence, with guaranteed software updates from Apple until at least 2027, and likely beyond. The Plus model boasts a larger 6.7" Super Retina XDR OLED display, an A15 Bionic chip with 6GB of RAM, a 12MP dual-lens camera, and 5G connectivity. The 256GB version typically retails for $599.99, while the 512GB version goes for $699.99.

Verizon's Unlimited prepaid plan operates on a month-to-month basis without any long-term contract, allowing you the flexibility to cancel anytime. It includes unlimited talk, text, and data for $60 per month. After your initial month, you can switch to the 15GB plan, which offers talk, text, and 15GB of data for $35 per month with autopay, or $45 without. If Verizon isn't for you, you can switch carriers after 60 days (see below).

Can you unlock your phone? Yes, but only after 60 days.

Verizon automatically unlocks their phones after 60 days of service or activation. This means you can use Verizon's prepaid service for two months and then move to another carrier. Apple iPhones, unlike some Android phones, do not come with carrier-specific bloatware, ensuring no software compatibility issues or conflicting apps when switching carriers. The iPhone 14 Plus uses eSIM technology, making carrier changes even simpler without the need for physical SIM cards.
