Whenever a new iPhone launches there's always a bit of a double whammy of good news to enjoy.

Aside from the obvious excitement of what innovative new features the latest Apple smartphone will bring to the table (how is it going to top Animojis!), it also means that mobile phone deals on the flagship phones we were loving last year get cheaper.And in the lead up to tonight's big iPhone launch event, we're already seeing prices drop on a number of handsets.

And these are no duds - they're some of the best handsets that have been released in recent years, with smartphones from Samsung, Huawei and Apple itself all included.So if you've already read our iPhone XS deals and iPhone 9 deals prediction pages and are wincing at the cost of the two year contracts, we've got some ideas for three alternatives that have just come down in price.

And if you want an even greater choice, then head to our main mobile phone deals hub or check out our all-encompassing price comparison at the bottom of the page.Samsung Galaxy S8Mobiles.co.uk | Vodafone | £60 upfront (with 10OFF code) | 1GB data | Unlimited minutes and texts | £18pmGetting a phone as good as the 2017 Samsung Galaxy S8 for less than £500 over two years is almost absurd.
