T-Mobile USA, the fourth largest carrier in the U.S finally started offering Apple’s iPhone on April 12th.
As you probably know, customers could either pay the full price ($579.99/$679.99/$779.99) for the 16GB/32GB/64GB iPhone 5 up front or they can pay $99.99/$199.99/$299.99 up front plus $20 monthly instalments for 24 months.
Apple plans to make some significant changes to its AppleCare service program later this fall, with a new subscription plan and updated policies to handle damaged iPhones.
Back in 2011, U.S. Cellular’s CEO Mary Dillon said that the carrier refused to carry the iPhone due to Apple’s “unacceptable” terms.
It looks like U.S. Cellular has changed its mind, as during earnings release earlier today, the company announced that it will being carrying Apple products later this product.
9to5Mac reports that according to a leaked internal Apple document, the original iPhone will be considered ‘obsolete’ or ‘vintage’ in Apple Retail Stores on June 11, 2013.
Apple usually considers products obsolete or vintage after they’re discontinued more than five years and less than seven years ago.
A new report from The Huffington Post gives us a look into the San Francisco Police Department’s sting operations conducted with the intention of clamping down on iPhone thefts. Instead of targeting thieves though, the sting targets potential buyers with the police officers posing as sellers of stolen iOS devices.
