The iPhone SE is even cheaper this Black Friday

Apple smartphones rarely go on sale, but we're currently seeing a few rather nifty iPhone SE deals for Black Friday. Apple already cut the price of the iPhone SE in line with the launch of the iPhone 12 family, and now Vodafone and Optus have cut it even further. 

Vodafone is discounting the 64GB iPhone SE by $180, bringing it down to $499 divided by your repayment term. Here's what it looks like on a 24-month plan. 

If you're after a larger iPhone SE, Optus is doing discounts on both the 128GB model and 256GB model. Optus has cut $230.40 from from the 128GB option. Here are its 24-month plans:

The discount is even deeper on the 256GB model, where Optus has cut $300.24 from the outright price. 

When reviewed the iPhone SE earlier this year, we called it one of the most sensible smartphones you buy due to its affordable price and top-tier processor. Not only is it faster than the best Android smartphones you can buy, you're guaranteed years of operating system updates. 

If you're looking for an even cheaper iPhone, numobile is currently running discounts on refurbished models when bought on a plan. Our picks are the $72 discount on the iPhone 7:

And the $72 discount on the iPhone XS:
