Strictly speaking, it's $629.00 for the iPad Air directly, so in fact this "free monthly 200MB data for life" costs $1
- potatolicious 13y agoI switched to T-Mobile with the iPhone 5S, and I couldn't be happier. My coverage in the city has gotten better, I'm saving $20+ a month, and the satisfaction of flipping the bird to AT&T is incomparable. Their phone "contracts" are the same no-bullshit deals. You get $X off the phone initially, after which you pay back the debt at $20/month. If you quit at any time you simply pay the remaining balance. Compare with AT&T where the early-termination fees are punitive and far in excess of the "loan" they gave you to begin with.
- kgermino 13y agoNot really. For example, it's just as easy to look at it as $1 in financing charges, since your financing the device purchase. I think that's the batter way to look at it since a) that's the price they've charged with or without the data, and b) I believe you can BYOD and get the same deal without any charges (other than possibly buying a SIM if you don't already have one).
