You don’t need to switch carriers or be limited by the quality of the phone you’re trading-in to get our best phone deals. And with Verizon’s Ultimate Phone Upgrade, you don’t have to. It gives customers on the Unlimited Ultimate plan Verizon’s best phone and device promos when upgrading, meaning everyone can get the latest 5G phones with 5G Ultra Wideband, along with speeds that won’t slow down no matter how much you use, 60GB of mobile hotspot, high-speed international roaming and global calling to a country of your choice – all included.
So whether you’re ready to upgrade now or in the future, with Unlimited Ultimate on Verizon you get our best offers on select phones with trade-ins. Guaranteed.
But the savings doesn’t stop with phones. Customers get even more exclusive deals from top-tier streaming and content partners, cementing Verizon as the only one-stop-shop for amazing content deals you can’t get anywhere else:
- Verizon will offer YouTube Premium as one of its monthly myPlan perks², meaning customers get the service for an exclusive monthly price of just $10 (and saving 30%). With YouTube Premium, users can watch millions of videos ad-free, can download videos to watch later when you’re offline or on-the-go, including full access to YouTube Music Premium. Get the perk starting May 30.
