There’s never a better time for deals, add-ons, and perks than the holiday season. In preparation for this Boxing Day, we’ve scoured every carrier’s plans and pages to find the best values for you.
Although many carriers are holding out on revealing their Boxing Day deals until we get closer to the actual holiday, we've found some early discounts and deals that will set you up for a new phone or a new plan for the new year.
Read on to find the best Boxing Day deals in Canada as of December 26, 2023.
Best iPhone 15 Deal
iPhone 15 for $20/month from Freedom Mobile
We're impressed with the iPhone 15, the latest high-powered device from Apple. The phone was just released this fall, meaning its sticker price is still rather high. This deal from Freedom Mobile, however, allows you to grab the device on the cheap. In the process, you'll also pick up 3 free months of Apple TV+.
Best Android Deal
Google Pixel 8 for $0.01/month from Rogers
This deal is so good we had to triple-check its accuracy. Luckily, it's legit: you really can grab the new Pixel 8 for a mere penny this Boxing Day. Even better, the accompanying plan is on the nationwide Rogers 5G network, meaning you'll be on the country's top-rated network.
Best Free
Smartphone Deal
Google Pixel 7 for $1/month from Virgin Plus
If you activate a new 60GB plan with Virgin Plus, you can grab the Google Pixel 7 for just $1/month if you finance with Virgin's SmartPay program. This is a great deal for a solid Android phone and an excellent 5G plan.
Best Cell
Phone Plans
Freedom Mobile | 5G Unlimited | $50/month
Freedom's network is significantly smaller than that of the Big Three's but what they lack in total coverage area they make up for in exceptional savings. This plan is the perfect example: 5G coverage and an enormous chunk of data. If you bring your own phone, the plan is just $50/month. If you want to pick up a new iPhone or Pixel, you'll pay $55/month for the plan, but we still think that's a fantastic deal, one that costs just a fraction of the price of comparable plans from Bell, Rogers, or Telus.
Fido | Data, Talk & Text with 80GB | $45/month
Fido is a flanker operating on Rogers' nationwide 4G LTE network. This deal allows you to snag a data chunk ten times what the average Canadian uses for just $45/month when you enroll in auto-payment.
Public Mobile | Unlimited Canada-Wide Talk + Text + 60GB | $40/month
If you're looking to avoid getting locked into a contract this year, Public Mobile might be your best bet. The prepaid flanker operates on the nationwide Telus network, offering month-to-month 5G and 5G plans for cheap.
