Apple iPhone 15 in 2026
This Apple iPhone 15 review combines current GetLow contract prices with the specifications that matter before a long commitment. It compares new and refurbished availability, total cost, monthly price, data, storage and the closest current alternatives.
Live price position Judge the iPhone 15 by today's whole-contract price
GetLow currently checks 538 iPhone 15 contract offers across 4 retailers and 5 networks. The market starts at £14.00 a month, £0.00 upfront and £671.16 in total after currently stated promotional savings.
Those headline floors can come from different deals. Keep monthly price, upfront cost, data, storage, term and condition tied to one listing before deciding which offer is genuinely cheapest.

Live model price comparison How does the Apple iPhone 15 price compare with nearby phones?
This table uses the reviewed phone plus up to four nearby alternatives by current lowest total contract cost. Monthly price, data, total cost and condition remain attached to the same cheapest-total listing for each phone.
Read each difference against the bold iPhone 15 baseline. A cheaper row shows the whole-contract saving; a dearer row shows the additional amount currently needed to step up.
Build your own phone comparison Select any three phones and compare them side by side
The Apple iPhone 15 is selected first. Change any selector to compare it with two other current phones from Apple, or with the wider market when fewer than three Apple models are available.
Every price card keeps monthly cost, upfront payment, total cost, data, contract length and condition attached to the same live listing. The specification table then shows the hardware differences that may justify paying more.
Design and display What the iPhone 15 is like to hold and look at
The iPhone 15 uses 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED with a 1179 x 2556 resolution and a 60Hz refresh rate. These are the screen details to compare with the alternatives above.
Its physical specification is 147.6 x 71.6 x 7.8 mm at 171g. Consider that size against how often you use a phone one-handed and whether it needs to fit a smaller pocket.

Cameras Compare the camera hardware before paying an upgrade premium
The iPhone 15 lists 48MP + 12MP on the rear and 12MP at the front. Sensor count alone does not decide image quality, but it tells you which focal lengths and selfie hardware are included.
If photography is the reason you are considering this phone, compare its complete camera setup with the other two selected models and then weigh that difference against the live total-cost gap.
Rear camera48MP + 12MP
Front camera12MP
Battery and charging Battery comfort matters for the whole contract
The listed battery specification is 3,349mAh, paired with 20W wired, 15W MagSafe charging. Capacity and charging speed are useful comparison points, although real endurance still depends on signal, brightness, apps and battery condition.
For a refurbished offer, check the retailer battery policy and warranty as carefully as the headline price. For a new phone, compare whether the charger you need is supplied or already owned.

New and refurbished buying checks Protect the saving before you order
Current offers include both new and refurbished listings, so compare like with like. A low price is only good value when the condition, storage, warranty, returns terms and battery policy suit what you expect to receive.
Use total contract cost after any stated code as the first comparison, then check data and storage on the same basis. Availability can change as retailers update stock.
- Confirm whether the selected listing is new or refurbished.
- Check the exact storage and colour before leaving GetLow.
- Read the warranty, returns and refurbished battery terms.
- Compare the total contract cost rather than monthly price alone.
