iPhone prices without a contract
It feels like everyone requires a contract these days – everyone including wireless carriers like AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint (Sprint does not offer the iPhone). There’s nothing quite like the feeling of being free of a contact, termination fees, and endless monthly charges. iPhone prices without a contract vary from carrier to carrier.
AT&T offers iPhone 4 without a contract priced at $599 – just walk in, pay your $599 and walk out with your iPhone (which is locked to AT&T). The great feature of buying an iPhone without a contract is that you can choose any plan you like and terminate at ant time. So if you don’t want data, you don’t have to get it with your plan.
Verizon offers their iPhone 4 without a contract for about $649 – about $50 more than AT&T. As with AT&T, you’re free to choose the plan you want and can terminate your plan at any time, yet your phone is locked to Verizon.
You can get a quad band world GSM iPhone for around $700. The advantage of getting this type of phone is that you can use it in a number of different countries – just switch out your SIM card. AT&T and Verizon phones operate in North America and won’t work in other countries due to differences in available radio frequencies.
