Christmas is just a few days away, and this time of the year is the perfect time for finding a deal on a new smartphone if you're coming to the end of your contract.
EE's second winter sale is already underway, with the network offering deals on a range of pay monthly and SIM-only plans, not to mention discounts on tablets, laptops and smartwatches.
While we recommend you do your research and check out offers from the top networks in the UK, you often can't go wrong with EE, which has delivered some massive discounts to compete for a spot under your tree this year.

Perhaps you're after a brand new Samsung Galaxy S22 or Google Pixel 7 Pro, or maybe you're an EE customer who is thinking about replacing their laptop or tablet. The network something for every prospective Christmas tech buyer.
EE's early Boxing Day deals could change, but the majority of the deals outlined below will run from now until January 26, 2023. Plenty of time to ponder, then.
It's also worth nothing EE's official line on its monthly prices, which reads as follows: "The monthly price shown, add-ons and all out of bundle charges will increase on or after 31st March every year by the Consumer Price Index rate of inflation published in January that year, plus 3.9%. See ee.co.uk/increase for details. Please note the cost of other services you take from us may increase or decrease while you're an EE customer."
EE Boxing Day 2022 Samsung Galaxy deals
If it’s a flipping great Christmas you're after, EE has a deal on the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4, which has seemingly been discounted pretty much everywhere since Black Friday.
Samsung's novel foldable flip phone is currently available on a 125GB data plan for £63 (usually £71) per month with a £30 upfront cost. Also part of the 24-month contract offer is an Adidas voucher worth £300.
The Samsung Galaxy S22 (the flagship Galaxy phone you can actually hold in one hand) is also on sale during EE's big winter sale, currently available for £47 (usually £61) per month for £24 months with a £30 upfront payment. That entitles you to 125GB of data, unlimited minutes and texts, and a free Samsung Chromebook 4 worth £299.
And if only the biggest and best Samsung phone will suffice, you can grab the Galaxy S22 Ultra on an unlimited plan for £72 (usually £84) a month and £30 upfront. You'll save up to £288 with this deal, which also includes the aforementioned Chromebook at no extra cost.
EE Boxing Day 2022 iPhone deals
If it's money off an iPhone that you're after, EE can help. Right now an iPhone 13 on a 24-month 125GB plan is down to £55 a month from £59, with £30 upfront, saving you £144 over the duration of your contract.
You can also grab the iPhone 14 Plus, Apple's non-Pro large phone for this year, on an unlimited tariff for £72 a month (usually £74) and £30 upfront. £48 over two years isn't a huge saving paper, but it's better than nothing at all.
EE Boxing Day 2022 Google Pixel deals
In the market for a new Google Pixel phone this festive season? EE is hoping it can tempt you with a number of deals.
Google's flagship phone for 2022, the Pixel 7 Pro, can currently be grabbed for £56 per month (usually £66) with a £10 upfront payment. You'll be getting unlimited data here too.
On the other end of the spectrum, EE has an offer on the Google Pixel 6a (a superb-value Android) that doesn't require you to pay anything up front, with a 24-month contract coming in at £31 per month (usually £39) with 125GB of data.
With any of the above devices on the plans outlined you can also claim a free Fitbit Versa 4 smartwatch, usually priced at £199. To get the wearable, you just head here and follow the instructions.
EE Boxing Day 2022 SIM-only deals
Any seasoned mobile deal hunter will know that you don't have to upgrade your phone to take advantage of discounts. And sure enough, EE is running some tempting offers on its SIM-only plans.
If you want an Unlimited SIM plan, you can get it half-price for the first six months of a 24-month contract, which works out at £14 a month until it becomes £28 after month six.
If unlimited data isn't something you need, you can also save £36 on the cost of a 150GB plan, which becomes £12 a month (usually £24) for your first three months of a mandatory 24-month contract.
