Personally for me and my usage in the UK, a mobile phone plan is more expensive over the course of 2 years.
Yes the initial outlay is more painful, but i find £25 a month much more palatable than £74 (for the same plan with the phone)
back of the napkin maths says the following;
iPhone 7+ 128G (my current phone) - £819
phone plan (unlimited data - 600mins - unlimited texts) - £25/month
Over 2 years - 819+600 - £1419
phone + plan (unlimited data - unlimited minutes - unlimited texts, closest to what i currently have) - £74/month
Over 2 years - £1850
- chadcmulligan 9y agoYes I'm in australia and the maths has probably changed - plans are a lot cheaper now. Still I stand by my comment, a large percentage of iphone buyers don't look at the price, they look at the monthly rate - if the difference is $10 a month then it probably won't change things much imho.
