iPhone 14 Deals: Free iPhone 14 From Verizon, AT&T and More

These are the best places to snag Apple’s newest iPhone models — the iPhone 14 lineup — right now.

This story is part of Focal Point iPhone 2022, CNET’s collection of news, tips and advice around Apple’s most popular product.

Following its unveiling at Apple’s September media event, the iPhone 14 lineup is now available — and we’re rounding up the best iPhone 14 deals currently available to make things easy for you. Apple’s new flagship lineup includes the iPhone 14 and 14 Plus as well as the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max, with US prices starting at $799.

The Pro phones have so far grabbed most of the headlines, taking the spots as the new best iPhones, thanks to their upgraded A16 Bionic chip and an updated display that ditches the infamous notch in favor of an adaptive pill-shaped display cutout that Apple is calling the Dynamic Island. On the non-Pro side, the devices keep the same A15 Bionic chip from last year, though there are some under-the-hood improvements.

All of the phones in the lineup are available now. And despite the device being so new, there are already some solid iPhone deals to be found.

What colors does the iPhone 14 come in?

The iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus come in five different colors: blue, purple, midnight, starlight and Product Red. The iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max come in deep purple, silver, gold and space black.

Your goal is to find hidden words that fit the puzzle’s theme. If you’re stuck, find any words you can. Every time you find three words of four letters or more, Strands will reveal one of the theme words. These are the words I used to get those hints but any words of four or more letters that you find will work:

TEAM, MATE, HATE, GATE, LIST, LISTEN, GLEE, LINT, CHEAT, HEAT

Answers for today’s Strands puzzle

These are the answers that tie into the theme. The goal of the puzzle is to find them all, including the spangram, a theme word that reaches from one side of the puzzle to the other.
