Get the Apple iPhone 14 Plus for $249.99

Requires signing up for at least one month of Verizon's Unlimited prepaid service ($60 per month)

Apple iPhone 14 Plus 256GB

The Apple iPhone 14 Plus was released back in October 2022 and it's currently two generations older than the current model. It's still a perfect relevant phone by today's standards - especially if you don't care about Apple Intelligence - and is guaranteed to receive Apple software updates until 2027 and probably for a few years beyond that. The Plus model features a larger 6.7" Super Retina OLED XDR display, A15 Bionic chip with 6GB of RAM, 12MP dual-lens camera, and 5G support. The 256GB model currently retails for $599.99 and the 512GB for $699.99.

Verizon's Unlimited prepaid plan is a month-to-month service with no time limited contract agreement, which means you can end the plan anytime. It offers unlimited talk, text, and data for $60 per month. After your first month of service, you can downgrade to the 15GB plan, which gives you talk, text, and 15GB of data for $35 per month if you choose autopay, otherwise $45 without autopay. If you don't want to stick with Verizon, you can switch carriers after 60 days (see below).

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

Verizon phones are automatically unlocked after 60 days of activation or service. That means you can potentially sign up for Verizon's prepaid service for 2 months and then switch to another carrier afterwards. Unlike Android phones, Apple does not allow carrier-specific bloat to be installed on their iPhones, which means you won't run into any software compatibility issues or conflicting apps when you switch carriers. The iPhone 14 is an eSim-only model, which means switching carriers is easier than ever since you don't have to worry about swapping and registering a physical sim card.

That’s why we’ve picked out the best smartphones to buy by seriously weighing the value against price.
