T-Mobile has officially announced its pricing plans for Apple's next-generation devices. The carrier will begin accepting pre-orders for the iPhone 5c on September 13, 2013 through T-Mobile.com for zero dollars down, plus 24 monthly installments of $22. That makes the T-Mobile model $21 less than Apple's off-contract iPhone 5c price of $549
The iPhone 5s will be available on September 20, 2013 for $99 down, plus 24 monthly payments of $22.91 for a total of $648.84. That's around the same price as Apple's contract free model. AT&T, Verizon Wireless and Sprint will be offering the same 16GB model for $199 with a two year contract, and the 16GB iPhone 5c will cost you $99 through those same carriers.
So far Walmart is offering the best deals on Apple's new handsets. You can nab the iPhone 5c from the big box retailer for just $79, or the iPhone 5s for only $189. Again, that is for the 16GB model only, and it requires that you agree to a two year contract with either AT&T, Verizon Wireless or Sprint.
