Vodacom currently has the widest iPhone range of the three big networks we checked, from the iPhone 16e to the iPhone 17 Pro Max in up to 2TB, with the iPhone 18 Pro appearing on pre-order. When we checked Vodacom’s online shop in September 2026, prices started from R449 pm x 36 for the iPhone 16e 128GB, and the iPhone 17 product page offered both 24- and 36-month terms. Pre-owned iPhone 11, iPhone 13 and iPhone 14 models were also listed.

Current Vodacom iPhone Contract Deals
iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro range
The iPhone 17 family makes up most of Vodacom’s Apple listing, across several storage tiers. On the iPhone 17 256GB page, Vodacom offered a new contract, an upgrade or a once-off purchase, with 24- and 36-month contract options. The deal cards shown included a 3GB data option with unlimited voice and a 10GB option.
iPhone 16e and iPhone 15
These are the lower-cost new iPhones on Vodacom. The iPhone 16e is listed in 128GB and 512GB, which is useful if you want a newer entry model with more storage. For model-specific deals, see Vodacom iPhone 15 Contract Deals and Vodacom iPhone 16 Contract Deals.
iPhone 18 Pro pre-order
Vodacom’s filters included pre-order promotions for the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max, and an iPhone 18 Pro 512GB listing carried a monthly price. Pre-order terms, delivery timing and storage options should be checked on the day you order.
Pre-owned iPhones
Vodacom’s pre-owned iPhone promotion listed the iPhone 11 (64GB), iPhone 13 (128GB) and iPhone 14 (128GB). For the iPhone 13 specifically, see Vodacom iPhone 13 Contract Deals. Vodacom iPhone 14 Contract Deals explains how Vodacom packages the pre-owned iPhone 14.
Monthly Prices and Contract Terms
Vodacom’s product pages show a “from” price and then a set of deal cards with different data and voice combinations. When you compare:
- Term. The iPhone 17 page offered 24 and 36 months. A 24-month term generally raises the monthly payment for the same phone.
- Total cost. Multiply the monthly amount by the term to see your full commitment.
- Promotional pricing. Some deal cards were labelled “On Promotion”. Check how long any promotional price applies.
- Price increases. Contract prices may be adjusted during the term. Read the deal terms.
- Once-off option. Every iPhone we saw also had a once-off cash price, which helps you judge how much of the monthly payment goes to the device.
What Is Included
On the iPhone 17 256GB page, each contract deal card showed a data allocation and a voice allocation. Other iPhones may carry different bundles, airtime or extras.
| What to check | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Data allocation | Too little data means buying bundles on top of the contract |
| Voice or airtime | Unlimited voice suits heavy callers; airtime-based plans work differently |
| Promotional label | A promotion may change the price or inclusions for part of the term |
| Warranty | Pre-owned iPhones carry their own warranty terms |
| Delivery lead time | Out-of-stock or pre-order devices may take longer to arrive |
If data matters more than the handset, compare Vodacom Data Contract Deals before deciding.

How to Choose the Right Deal
1. Set your storage need first. Vodacom lists the iPhone 17 Pro Max up to 2TB, but most buyers don’t need that much. 2. Decide on new, pre-owned or pre-order. Each changes the price, warranty and wait time. 3. Compare the deal cards, not just the headline price. The lowest price usually comes with the smallest data allocation. 4. Check 24 versus 36 months where both are offered. 5. If you’re upgrading, check eligibility. Vodacom has a “check if I can upgrade” option in its online shop. 6. Prepare for credit and affordability checks. Vodacom decides approval; it isn’t guaranteed.
