This means the iPhone 15 Pro with 128GB of storage, in the color of your choice, would basically be free.

At the same time you purchase the new iPhone 15 Pro, Verizon will give you $280 off the price of a new Wi-Fi + Cellular iPad or up to $120 off a new Wi-Fi + Cellular Apple Watch SE (2nd Gen), Apple Watch Series 9 or Apple Watch Ultra. To get either one of these add-on bonus deals, you'll also need to activate cellular service for the tablet and/or smartwatch through Verizon.

If you're willing to switch to Verizon as your cellular service provider, you'll get an additional $200 Verizon gift card when you purchase the new iPhone and activate it.
