What about the 7th category, the consumer that is tired of having his wallet savaged by the four major carriers. Android offers users the opportunity to buy a high-end device, off-contract, for $350. You can then use this phone with a pre-paid service that costs 1/2 of what the major carriers sell.
Maybe its a small demographic, but it seems like its growing.
- estel 12y agoWhilst obviously it's not at this price, but surely you can get an iPhone off-contract?
- prof_hobart 12y agoYou certainly can in the UK.
- Igglyboo 12y agoYep, I think the base model iPhone 6 is going to be $600 off contract.
- phaus 12y agoYou are correct, but the pricing was the entire point of the statement I made.
- ansible 12y ago... a high-end device, off-contract, for $350. Maybe even less if you can time it right. When the Nexus 4 went on sale last year for $200 (8GB) / $250 (16GB) USD last year, I debated it for all of about 10 minutes before buying one. If the N5 goes on sale this year to clear out the inventory, I'd consider that a very good value as well.
