Physical Apple stores and Apple's website are not the places you can buy Apple products from. There are great stores that sell Apple products, either SIM-free or with a contract.

If you're planning on picking up an iPhone 13, you may want to buy it from a place other than Apple. You may dread the lines that form at Apple stores or worry about Apple being out of stock.

Read on to learn more about the stores that sell the iPhone 13, in the US and around the world. Each place that we mention has its own pros and cons.

1. Amazon

Amazon sells many items, ranging from baby products to recent technology. Amazon often buys Apple products in large quantities, which can make its prices cheaper than at Apple stores.

The iPhone 13 was quickly available for pre-order on Amazon. You can wait until later, or buy it now.

2. AT&T

Like AT&T, Verizon is also available in many areas. And Verizon didn't wait to have deals on iPhone 13. On its website, you'll find promos that range from paying $0/month, to select trade-ins, to Unlimited plans.
