It is more annoying than misleading. The pricing is clearly "From $699." You choose your model, choose your color, and then choose your carrier. The price is listed next to each carrier with an orange "Special Offers Available" on top of AT&T and Verizon. The Sim-free device also has the $729 price.
As soon as you select your carrier the price on the top of the page adjusts to $729. I noticed this last night when I was prepping my pre-order.
- gnicholas 6y agoYes, but there has never been differential pricing based on carrier selection in the past (at least in the US). If anything, it was more expensive to go with AT&T/Verizon because they charged you a hefty (and completely unnecessary) 'upgrade fee' — even though upgrading takes zero employee intervention on their end.
