Vodafone knocks over £120 off iPhone 4S

Cheaper Apples

Agentless Backup is Not a Myth

Vodafone has lowered its upfront iPhone 4S fee by up to £120, in a move that brings the provider's pre-order pricing down to the level of its competitors.

The 16GB version has been lowered to £239 on the Vodafone's most inexpensive price plan, a drop of £120. It's down £80 to £359 for the 32GB version, and a £70 shaving has taken the 64GB one down to £449.

iPhone 4S

When we update our iPhone 4S contract comparison tables, we see the new prices are much more competitive, although Vodafone still remains the most expensive provider. Just not by as much.

For the company's full roster of updated price-plans, have a look on Vodafone's iPhone 4S website. ®

Customer Success Testimonial: Recovery is Everything

Anonymous Coward

Who are all these people who deem it perfectly acceptable to commit TWO YEARS of their life to a contract for a phone after paying a couple of hundred quid and then 30 or 40 quid a month?!

On a £31/month tariff, the poor punter would be burning over £900 on even the most basic iPhone 4s over a 2 year contract.

prices?

I've always wondered, if apple dropped themselves (or had their product priced? Not sure how it works) below the price of other phones, would they still be as popular?

I suspect not.

In other words.....

a reduction from mind-bogglingly stupidly expensive to merely stupidly expensive.
