TL;DR: Forget the iPhone 18 Pro, you can score $1,100 off the Galaxy S26 Ultra when you add a line with an eligible unlimited plan at T-Mobile.

Apple unveiled the iPhone 18 Pro earlier this week, and it's going to give the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra a run for its money. The iPhone 18 Pro uses a new A20 Pro chip, has a larger battery, and shoots Dolby Vision video. The Galaxy S26 Ultra is lighter and offers Privacy ID and an S Pen.

Preorders for the iPhone 18 Pro start September 12th, but you can save $1,100 on the Galaxy S26 Ultra right now by adding a line with the Experience More or Experience Beyond plans at T-Mobile. That drops the price to just $5.56 per month for 36 months, no trade-in required.

Both plans offer unlimited talk, text, and premium data, plus a high-speed hotspot and international benefits. Experience Beyond adds free Hulu and Netflix. Plans start at $90 and $100 per month for one line, but adding multiple lines and using Auto Pay lowers the cost. Four lines of Experience More drop to $42.50 per line.

Both phones are excellent but expensive. This Galaxy S26 promo from T-Mobile is one of the best deals today.
