Black Friday is the best time to get your hands on some cut-price tech, so if you've been holding off on getting the new iPhone 16, now is the best time to go ahead and buy it.

If you're dropping a bomb on a brand-new iPhone, chances are you'll be looking at getting some accessories to protect it, too, like a phone case and/or a screen protector (and if you're not, I'm seriously questioning your sanity). But, have you considered how to protect your new iPhone on the inside?

Snapping up one of the best VPNs in their Black Friday sales is one of the best ways to protect your new device and its data from anyone who might want to snoop in on it. Every single one of the best iPhone VPNs based on our testing has excellent Black Friday VPN deals right now, with some of them costing less than $2 a month.
