The iPhone 3G Price Drop Doesn’t Matter

Robert — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 22:13:25 +0000

By now you know the bullet points: the new 3G iPhone is smaller, cheaper, and faster than its predecessor. But at what cost? While we know what Apple has told us, it appears that AT&T is having its own say about the iPhone 3G and what it means for the future of the carrier’s relationship with Apple.

As with the original iPhone, you’ll have to sign up for a 2-year contract in order to grab an iPhone. The iPhone 3G will have slightly higher data plan prices than the original model: individual users will now pay US$30/month for unlimited data, and business users will have to fork over $45/month.

The AT&T data plans don’t include any SMS, so including the minimum amount of 200 at $5.00 per month, the new lowest price for any talk, data and SMS plan is $75.00. Up $15.00 from iPhone 2G!

You will be paying $180.00 plus taxes more per year, negating that $200 savings from Apple within your first twelve months of service.
