If you insist on the best, then the iPhone 11 Pro or iPhone 11 Pro Max will be in your sights. If your budget won’t stretch, the iPhone 11 or an older model might prove ideal. Whichever iPhone you’re after, this is a great time to buy. Here’s everything you need to know about the best Cyber Monday iPhone deals. If you want a wider look at all the bargains available today, you’ll want to peruse the best Cyber Monday deals.

Best Cyber Monday iPhone deals still available

Looking for more than just iPhone discounts? We’ve found deals on iPads, Apple Watches, AirPods, and MacBooks for Cyber Monday.

Since the iPhone 11 trio was released relatively recently, discounts on the latest models are rare and generally small. But if you’re willing to pick up a last-generation iPhone, or an even older model, you can snag some deep discounts on devices like the iPhone XR, iPhone XS, and iPhone 8 — all of which are still solid smartphones that will serve you well. Apple does a great job of updating its older iPhone models and the hardware inside is still very capable. If you don’t have a burning need for the very latest cutting edge camera or top-notch processing power, then an older iPhone is much better for your bank balance.

Looking for Cyber Week savings? We’ve found Apple Watch deals, smartphone deals, and the best iPad deals for you to peruse.

The uncertain future cost of Apple’s Emergency SOS feature

It's been roughly two years since the launch of the iPhone 14 and its Emergency SOS via satellite feature. You might recall that during the first two years, Apple said it would be free to use but that it might require a subscription after that time, according to MacRumors. Last year, Apple extended the time limit by one more year, so you actually have until November 2025, when the trial period ends.

That's good news. The Emergency SOS feature is, quite literally, lifesaving. During April of this year, three university students lost their way in a canyon and used the feature to call for help. Another story arose in July where the feature came through once more in a moment of crisis. And if you keep digging, you'll find numerous other examples of how this tech is truly beneficial.

Google Gemini arrives on iPhone as a native app

Google announced Thursday that it has released a new native Gemini app for iOS that will give iPhone users free, direct access to the chatbot without the need for a mobile web browser.

The Gemini mobile app has been available for Android since February, when the platform transitioned from the older Bard branding. However, iOS users could only access the AI on their phones through either the mobile Google app or via a web browser. This new app provides a more streamlined means of chatting with the bot as well as a host of new (to iOS) features.

I tried a new Android phone that puts some of the best smartphone cameras to shame

The rear camera setup on the Oppo Find X8 Pro.

It’s been a few years since I was surprised by a smartphone camera’s zoom performance. With Samsung offering 100x zoom on its Galaxy S Ultra lineup, little has shocked me with smartphone cameras — until now.

The Oppo Find X8 series is the successor to the Find X7 series from last year, and alongside several other improvements, there’s also been a significant upgrade in one area: the 30x zoom. Oppo and OnePlus have great cameras at shorter zoom distances, and at a recent briefing, I discovered that we can now add the 30x zoom to the list.
