| | Three UK gets the iPhone 4 too, O2 offers early upgrades | |
Three is the latest major UK carrier to announce that it will get the iPhone 4 at launch. Launching its pre-order campaign on 15 June and starting actual sales on 24 June, Three becomes the fifth UK operator to offer Apple's latest mobile phone.
Meanwhile O2 announced that it will offer its subscribes an early upgrade if they go for the iPhone 4. You will be able to pay off the reminder of your contract and get an iPhone 4 on a new 18 or 24-month one (AT&T style).
O2 will charge you with 20 pounds for each of the remaining months of your contract, no matter how much you are really paying. That's about 30% off the cheapest iPhone tariff. This way it will still be cheaper to pay off your contract and get a new one, instead of buying a SIM-free iPhone.
There is a catch of course - you will lose the change-of-mind period option. So once you've decided to go the iPhone 4 way, there is no turning back.
With five carriers throwing tempting iPhone 4 offers your way it has to feel good to be British these days. | |
