If you’re in the market for an iPhone this Christmas, Black Friday might be the best time to buy. AT&T’s Black Friday Deals on the iPhone start at just $49 for an iPhone 3GS and $99 for an iPhone 4 16GB model, which is a full 50% off the retail price of a new iPhone 4 (yes, you still need to sign a 2 year contract). These prices are for refurbished units, but refurbs have the same warranty as a new iPhone from both AT&T and Apple, so there isn’t much reason to not buy one instead and save some cash.

AT&T iPhone Black Friday Deals & Sales

These are Black Friday only prices, so to get the discount you have to buy through AT&T on Friday, November 26:



iPhone 4 32G Refurb – Sale: $199 (normally $249)

iPhone 4 16G Refurb – Sale: $99 (normally $149)

iPhone 3GS 8G Refurb – Sale: $49 (normally $79)

Check out the iPhone 4 Refurb Sale at AT&T – Black Friday only!

Again, these prices are valid on Black Friday only so the link doesn’t actually work until then, so check back on Friday. I’m assuming the deal will be available in AT&T stores as well if you’re brave enough to endure the shopping crowds.

iPhone discounts are a rare thing, and I’m not sure if Apple is going to match these deals or if AT&T is alone here in selling the iPhone 4 for so cheap.

These are all good sales but I think the sweet spot is the $99 iPhone 4 16GB model, of course if you need more space for music and apps jump up to the 32GB. Either way I personally would skip the iPhone 3GS and just get the iPhone 4, it’s a newer phone with much better hardware.

Now if you don’t want an iPhone, AT&T is also offering great deals on other smartphones but it looks like they’re delaying those until Saturday, Sunday, and Cyber Monday.
