Is this a good deal and can I afford it?

$199 for an iPhone 6 and a $35 a month plan with unlimited talk and text but 5GB data? I make about $500 a month and I don't have other bills but I'm trying to save for an apartment and college. Also, I might need to start buying my own groceries soon.

How many GB iPhone 6, and is this USA?
$199 should get an excellent condition used 32GB version.
Pageplus Cellular/TracPhone on the Verizon network is $36 plus tax with auto-refill where after 5GB data it drops to lower speed 2g service but is unlimited.
Check what happens or cost if going over 5GB.
compare unlocked phone to ebay
check activation cost
The price is in line with people's typical.
MintSim on TMobile has cheapest around-

Commit to a longer time and they get cheaper.

So you are prepared to pay just short of $200 for an iPhone? Why? It's an iPhone 6, it's ancient tech, you can buy better cheaper, and then save some on your monthly too!

  • Your thought on the iphone 4s and is 200 bucks a good deal for a new one? Its 16gb. Ill be buying it from a guy on craigslist. He said he'd even meet me in a Verizon store.

Its 4g and I know the iphone 4s is 3g. Do you think ill notice a big difference when I get on the internet?

  • Is the iPhone 4 8GB on Virgin Mobile a good deal? Their site is telling me I can get 300 anytime minutes per month, with unlimited access to data and messaging. This seems too good to be true, does it not? I know you need to pay for the phone itself, but what's the catch? Does Virgin Mobile's coverage suck or something? Haha. For $35 per month they say
