Black Friday Verizon deals are available right now — in fact, today (Nov. 17) is your last chance to take advantage of a great Verizon deal where you can get a brand new 5G flagship phone for free with trade-in, plus a $1,000 gift card to cover the costs of switching to Verizon.

But don't despair if you miss out on this chance to get the iPhone 13, Galaxy S21 or Pixel 6 Pro. Verizon is sure to announce additional Black Friday deals, with discounts on all sorts of phones, from leading flagships to budget devices. In fact, you can pick up some older though still attractive handsets just by opening a new line with Verizon and signing up for one of the company's unlimited data plans.

Once the current offers expire, we're expecting more Black Friday Verizon deals such as BOGO offers that let you pick up a phone as gift and one for yourself. We'd suggest acting quickly on any offer, though, as the earlier you order, the greater the chance that you'll have a phone in hand before the holidays.

What is Verizon's best unlimited data plan?

Many of Verizon's Black Friday deals require you to sign up for one of the carrier's unlimited data plans. Currently, Verizon features four unlimited options, ranging in price from $70 to $90 per month for a single line of data. We think the $80 Play More plan is the best unlimited data plan at Verizon, as you get a subscription to Disney's three streaming services, along with trials for Apple Music, Discovery Plus and a streaming game service (either Apple Arcade or Google Play Pass, depending on what kind of phone you use).
