you have to buy the phone for full-price up-front. For a high-end phone, that’s quite a price — $650 for Apple’s iPhone 5s, for example.
But $650 phones are cheaper than you may think. For example, picking up an iPhone 5s with a 2GB plan on AT&T will cost you $199.99 + $80 per month, or a total of $2120 over two years. Picking up a $650 iPhone 5s and spending $45 per month for a Straight Talk unlimited plan will cost you a total of $1730 over two years. That “discounted phone” actually costs you $390 extra here — you’re paying a $1040 for that iPhone 5s on AT&T over the life of the contract.
The difference is even more pronounced when you start looking at more mobile data — you can’t even get unlimited data on AT&T, and more data will cost you much more. Purchase an iPhone 5s with 50 GB of data from AT&T and you’ll be paying $415 per month. წყარო:
