Would you pay $32.85 a month for an iPhone 6S?

I need to convince my mom to get me an iPhone 6S and I found a great deal that only costs $32.85, is it a bargain?

Hell no. What a waste of money

No!
Certainly not if I expected someone else to pay for it - I always was an independent type.

That's $788.40 for the phone assuming no interest. You also have to pay for service as well.

It's the normal 2-year installment purchase price. Your bill will be considerably more than $32.85 because you pay for service, data, and text separately.

You wouldn't only be paying $32.85 per month for the phone. That is just the EIP (Equipment Installment Plan) payment per month. You also have to pay for Text Messaging, Calling, Data and the monthly service fee. The monthly service fee for a phone is usually $20 a month at any major carrier. Texting and calling is usually $30 and your data price per month depends on how much data you have. Look at the different prices. Before data you'd be paying around $80 a month. I have an iPhone 6 on Verizon with a $22 month for phone and then with texting, calling, data and service fee. I'm paying about $92 a month and I only have 2 GB of data. It's cheaper to have more than one device, so try and convince your mom to get one with you. Seeing that $32.85 is a real eye catcher. They never tell about all the extras you'll have to pay. It's a bummer. Don't forget that if you want equipment protection, that'll probably be another $11 per month.

What we think doesn't matter, its up to her and her money situation.

You also have to pay for service as well.

No.

If they paid me that I might consider it.

  • What do you pay a month for a single iphone with at&t? Just looking into a phone. Unlimited talk and text. I meant you personally. Because with what I've looked at it would be 119 a month for one.
  • IPhone users, how much do you pay a month? I want to get the iPhone 5 when it is released and I would like a rough estimate of how much you pay a month. I'm aware that obviously depending on the plan/contract, the monthly charge with differ. But how much do you pay a month, and what features do you have? Also, if you are at home or somewhere where there's Wi-Fi, and you are using the internet, do you get charged for that or is it free because of the Wi-Fi?
  • Iphone 5 owners? How much do you pay per month? Looking to get an iphone 5 with a family plan of two lines. Verizon offers unlimited talk and text and 2gb of data for both of us for $70 each. Is this a good deal? I pay around $60 for my basic phone right now.
  • If you pay monthly for a phone is there anything else you have to pay? For Christmas I want an iPhone 8+ and pay it monthly. I would buy it from something like Verizon, us cellular, att, and others. Would I have to pay any other fees? Say it was like $23.50 a month for 24 months. Would I have to pay anything else after 24 months?
