INSANE Verizon Deals for May 2025: Galaxy S25 Edge, iPhone 16 Pro Max & Jaw-Dropping Offers You Can’t Miss!
Verizon just flipped the switch on its wildest spring promos yet, and the numbers look almost fake in print: free Galaxy S25 Edge, free iPhone 16 Pro Max with no trade-in, up to $540 in bill credits for BYOD switchers, and even a free 43-inch Samsung TV or Meta Quest 3S when you add home internet. The catch? Most of these offers vanish the moment Memorial Day traffic spikes, so move fast.

💸 Switcher & Plan Steals
- Bring Your Own Phone: Port any number, keep your handset, and Verizon drops up to $540 in promo credits over 36 months — basically wiping out one Unlimited Plus line. (TechRadar)
- Add-a-Line for $15: Existing customers can bolt on a second line of unlimited data for what most carriers charge for 5 GB. (TechRadar)
- Three-Year Price Lock: Verizon guarantees today’s plan base price until 2028 across every MyPlan tier. (TechRadar)
🏠 Home Internet Freebies
Fiber or 5G Home qualifies you for a free Samsung TV or Meta Quest 3S (worth $300) when you sign up this month — a perfect cherry on top if you’re bundling mobile + home to drop Fios as low as $25/mo. (TechRadar)
⚡ Lightning-Round Tips to Max Out Savings
- Stack gifts: Grab the free iPhone 16 Pro Max and add a home-internet line for the TV/VR bonus; Verizon lets you pile promos if each has its own service line.
- Trade junk, not treasure: That cracked iPhone 8 in your drawer still triggers the full Galaxy S25 Edge rebate — save newer phones for eBay.
- Switch, then upgrade: Port in on BYOD for the $540 credits, wait 30 days, then trade that same phone to unlock a free flagship (yes, it works).
- Watch plan tiers: The “no-trade” freebie phones generally demand Unlimited Ultimate; drop to Plus after six months if hotspot limits don’t phase you.
- Mark your calendar: Most pages list “Ends May 28” in the tiny footer. Expect prices to spike once Memorial Day deals switch over to Father’s Day marketing.
🚀 Bottom Line
For at least the next two weeks, Verizon is handing out 2025’s hottest flagships like party favors. Whether you’re craving the curved-screen Galaxy S25 Edge, Apple’s monster iPhone 16 Pro Max, or just a fat bill credit for bringing your own phone, May 2025 is the cheapest window we’ve seen all year. Hit checkout before the promos expire — or risk paying triple in June while everyone else streams on a free phone.
