T-Mobile Drops The Upfront Cost Of iPhone 5s, iPhone 5c In Time For The Holidays
T-Mobile has confirmed that from Dec. 11, it will be offering Apple's iPhone 5s (16GB) and iPhone 5c (16GB) downpayment-free when customers sign-up for a Simple Choice Plan's 24 monthly payments of $27.00 or $22.91, respectively.
The news hit the Web in a press release in which the so-called “un-carrier” explained: “T-Mobile continues to spread holiday cheer with our most affordable out of pocket prices on wireless devices. Starting December 11, T-Mobile is dropping the upfront price of some of the most popular iPhones to $0 down for well-qualified new and existing customers.”
T-Mobile continues:
Customers can get iPhone 5s in the 16GB model for $0 down with 24 equal monthly payments of $27, with a no annual service contract Simple Choice Plan. Customers can get iPhone 5c in the 16GB model for $0 down with 24 equal monthly payments of $22.91. […]
Low upfront costs combined with our affordable Simple Choice Plan make T-Mobile a great overall value this holiday season. Simple Choice includes unlimited talk, text and Web on our nationwide 4G LTE network and now unlimited text and data in 100+ countries - at no extra charge.
Plus, customers can also pick up Apple's Wi-Fi + Cellular iPads for $0 down, too; the iPad Air will set customers back 24 monthly repayments of $26.25, while repayments for the iPad mini with Retina display stand at $22.08. There's also a first-generation iPad mini on offer from T-Mobile at $17.91 per month, and this, too, doesn't require a downpayment as part of the promotion.
All iDevices included as part of T-Mobile's limited-time offer are the 16GB models. The carrier adds that the $0 down promotion will be available “nationwide at participating T-Mobile retail stores, select dealers and online.”
So far, it's not known how long the offer is set to run for, but we'll update this article if we hear anything.
