O2 is dropping the price of the iPhone in-contract – and whatever you think about it suggesting new devices coming soon, the right-now news is that TCO (total cost of ownership) is going down!
According to Electricpig, O2 is going to offer the iPhone 3G (8GB) for free on a 24-month, £34.26/month contract. Until now the cheapest tariff to get the device for free was the £44.05/month tariff.If you want 16GB of memory in the device, then cheapest tariff will be £44.05/month.
Going back to the 8GB-er for a moment, in that tariff you’ll get 600 free mins and 500 free texts – which isn’t too bad. An alternative way to amortise the costs is to buy the iPhone outright, and get a simplicity (sim-only) tariff with the appropriate bolt-ons you want – that’s what I did. Anyhoo, O2’s new offer apparently is going to begin 3rd April. Schweet.
