One-day blowout sale events are all well and good, but Mint Mobile’s deals that bundle new smartphones with an unlimited plan with access to America’s largest 5G network run throughout the holiday season, and they’re surprisingly affordable. Mint Mobile has recently released attractive offers on four great smartphones, one of which will get you the brand new Samsung Galaxy A16 practically for free – just $15 with a 12-month unlimited plan.
Great deals on the Samsung Galaxy A36, Apple iPhone 16e, and Google Pixel 9 are also part of this holiday drop from Mint Mobile, and although they’re not one-day deals, they’re only good while supplies last. Regardless of which device you choose, your monthly price for Mint Mobile’s 12-month Unlimited plan is just $15 per month, so you can skip Big Mobile’s hefty monthly cell service and monthly installment plans at the same time.
$15 with 12-month unlimited plan
We’ve looked hard for another cellular deal that essentially turns a brand new Samsung device into a free throw-in, and we can’t seem to find any. The Galaxy A16 was Samsung’s flagship smartphone a long time ago (time flies fast when it comes to drop smartphones), and it’s still a more than adequate phone for anyone looking for Samsung’s top-line performance without a top-line price tag.
The Galaxy A16’s 128GB of inbuilt storage can be easily upgraded up to 1.5TB with a microSD card, and the 6.7-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED Infinity-U display is ultra-competitive with any smartphone on the market. The same goes for the A16’s 13MP front camera and 50MP/5MP/2MP rear cameras. The Galaxy A16 would be a great upgrade for a teen, senior, or anyone who is still reluctant to retire an older device.
At just $15 with a 12-month unlimited plan, you can easily buy more than one Galaxy A16, which is why Mint Mobile has wisely limited this offer to four devices per customer.

$150 with 12-month unlimited plan
The Galaxy A16 has the lowest price in this Mint Mobile offer, but its stablemate the A36 comes with a big discount, down from $250 to just $150. Normally getting an A36 at this price requires a trade-in or multi-year contract, but on Mint Mobile it’s just a 12-month unlimited plan.
The Galaxy A36 is a 5G powerhouse that matches perfectly with Mint Mobile’s network, which is the largest in the country. The display is fantastic, a 6.7-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED with a crisp 120Hz refresh rate which comes in handy when you use unlimited 5G data with some bi-streaming. The strong 5,000mAh battery is compatible with 45W Super Fast Charging 2.0, and the usually great Samsung front and rear cameras are a step up from the A16.
There’s also a 4-device limit on this offer, which makes sense, and if there’s an offer on board where supplies are likely to disappear quickly, it’s this one. Claim your $150 Galaxy A36 smartphone before they’re all gone.

$399 with 12-month unlimited plan
Of all the major smartphone manufacturers, Apple is probably the best when it comes to retro-compatibility. Their iPhone generations move very slowly, so a model from the 16 series is barely half a step behind the 17. Which makes this $200 off deal on the iPhone 16e truly extraordinary, especially compared to the prices of the 17 series devices.
The “e” in 16e doesn’t officially stand for anything, but if we had to choose it would be “essential”, as the 16e comes with powerful battery life, strong links with the larger Apple ecosystem, a stunning 6.1-inch display, and the rest of Apple’s key features. The A18 processor chip is a bona fide speed demon, and upgrading from the built-in iOS 18 to Apple’s brand new iOS 26 is a fast and easy download which makes the iPhone 16e an even more impressive deal at just $399 with a 12-month Mint Mobile Unlimited plan.

$199 with 12-month unlimited plan
Google smartphone fans could be the biggest winners during Mint Mobile’s holiday sale, as a brand new Pixel 9 that normally sells for $799 goes for just $199 with a 12-month Unlimited Plan subscription. The biggest upfront savings these 4 great smartphones offer brings you the Tensor-powered Pixel 9 that offers all the omnipresence – great cameras, fast screens, and seamless access to the vast Google ecosystem, all with Google’s famously clean and easy interface.
It’s almost unheard of for the Pixel 9 to be offered in deals that don’t lock you into a monthly installment plan, but the $199 price tag is a one-time purchase. Combine this with the $15 monthly bill for Mint Mobile’s Unlimited plan and this deal is a surefire way to reduce your cellular bill to almost zero.

When Mint Mobile says this top tier plan is unlimited, they’re not exaggerating at all. For a $15 monthly fee you can use talk, text, and data, and this plan is available in the 12-month offers associated with these smartphone deals, but also in 3 and 6 month increments. Those smaller deals are also $15 per month, and they’re attractive offers if you’re not in the market for a new smartphone — bring along your smartphone and keep both the device and your phone number when you switch to Mint Mobile’s $15 monthly unlimited plan.
No matter which unlimited plan deal you choose, you get:
-
Premium wireless on T-Mobile nationwide network.
-
No contracts, no hidden fees.
-
Free mobile hotspot with unlimited plans.
-
Free international calling to Mexico and Canada.
-
Easy eSIM activation or free SIM shipping.
- Mint Mobile has top-tier customer service with live humans and wait times are usually less than 2-3 minutes.
Just note that these device deals run from now until December 31st and will only be available while supplies last. With this front-loaded discount and a purchase limit of four per customer, inventory won’t last long.
