The UK mobile network has just revealed its early Black Friday 2022 deals which include the chance to grab a new iPhone 13 and get free data, calls and texts for the first six months of the contract.Unlike most mobile firms – who set a single price for the device and SIM card – O2 splits things in two allowing customers to pay for the phone separately from the Airtime Plan.
