T-mobile and Apple (iPhone 5)?
I read some articles saying that T-mobile will start selling apple products. I want to get the iPhone 5 and the regular starting price is $199 for 16GB, but instead T-mobile is selling it for $649. Can I buy the iPhone 5 elsewhere and bring it to T-mobile?
T-Mobile is getting rid of their contract prices
you could buy it directly from Apple, but it will cost you the same amount ($649)
if you buy it under contract with AT&T or another wireless company, you can unlock it and use it, but if you don't keep paying that other company, they will blacklist the phone and it will stop working.
Yes, T-Mobile and Apple have reached a deal and T-Mobile will soon start carrying Apple products.
No, the regular starting price for the iPhone 5 is NOT $199. That is the subsidized price that other carriers offer- they pay a large portion of the cost of the phone while you agree to an expensive monthly contract where they get what they paid for the phone back.
It is not yet known what T-Mobile will sell the products for, but rumor does have it that they will not be subsidized. This will make them more expensive at first, but actually less expensive in the long run.
Yes, you can purchase an iPhone 5 elsewhere and bring it to T-Mobile. But you will not be purchasing it for $199- it will cost a lot more. You would have to purchase the unlocked version which is much more expensive. Also note that non-TMobile branded phones will not work as smoothly on the network as ones that are T-Mobile branded.
- IPhone 5s plans for StraightTalk, T-Mobile, and Virgin Mobile? I'm going to get an unlocked iPhone 5s. However, my parents will not pay for the at&t, sprint and verizon plans. They said that they would do the straight talk, virgin mobile, or T-mobile plans because it is cheaper. I was wondering when the plans would come out for the 5s, and about how much they would be (compare it with the iPhone 4 when it came out). I really want to get this phone fast and start using it.
- How much is the iPhone 4 at T-mobile and Virgin Mobile? I want to get one from there but have no idea how much they are. I also would like to know how much the bill a month would be for these two. I've tried other places but I really don't want to have a contract for the phone so yeah, thanks for helping.
- Can you lease a iPhone directly with apple and not Sprint, AT&T and T-Mobile? I wanna get a new iPhone but I don't want those carriers and the carrier that I want does not lease iPhone you have to bring your own
- Can i buy an iphone through apple and activate it with virgin mobile? I've read the reviews on virgin mobiles website and they say that the virgin mobile phone seems to be a bad batch of iphones. Do you know if i can buy an unlocked phone from apple(the 649 dollar ones) and activate it with virgin mobile.
