So this is it — the long wait is finally over! Sources tell me that the iPhone 4 from Globe Telecom will be arriving on September 26, 2010.
Globe Telecom account reps have been making calls to those who signed-up on that registration form and saying the iPhone 4 will be available by Sunday the 26th so if you’re one of them, expect a call too.
There’s no mention of pricing for the iPhone 4 but based on experience, Apple usually gives the go signal to the telco when the prices should be published and from the last time I remember it’s a few days before release date.
Those wondering how much it would go for — the 32GB iPhone 3GS prepaid kit on Globe is currently at Php39,995. The price of the iPhone 4 will play around that figure.
Will update once we get any tip on the price schedule of the iPhone 4 from Globe. See our full review of the iPhone 4 here.
Update: Price of the iPhone 4 Prepaid Kit is as follows:
iPhone 4 16GB – Php 37,499 (free on Plan 3799)
iPhone 4 32GB – Php 43,699 (free on Plan 5000)

haha.. ang layo nung guess price ko dun sa pacontest mo.. kelan announcement ng winners?
So that means prices will go down in the gray market? Local price is almost P9K more than Apple Singapore’s

@emman
Don’t worry about future updates. Buy what you need now and just trade in later. If you wait, you’ll end up not buying because there will always be better products coming.
@allan
actually its, now we will know who are the suckers for marketing and dumb enough not to know that they are getting ripped-off.
This company spends billions of dollars in marketing only to pass it on to consumers.
There are more low key products in the market that are better value for money because
1) They don’t spend billions of dollars in advertising and marketing
2) They don’t have grossly paid CEO’s and executives
3) They don’t have demanding stock holders that expect good profits
sayang… Like ko to pro the way Apple refresh their product, mamaya may bago n… E kasi dapat simultaneous ang release… tulad ng iPad, next meron ng 2nd gen pro until now ala ppa officially sa pinas…
You should buy an iPhone 4 now. Prices will be rising soon, and Globe’s launch won’t help lower prices.
what about the iPad?
I’ve heard:
(1) Enterprise clients will get the first dibs on the 24th :D
(2) it will be activated on the spot to prevent jailbreak and have the unit registered immediately at Apple HQ
Since Apple provide certain units per country and they checking the inventory per activation before a provider order another batch. Sinister Apple ..grrr!
Finally!!!
Enterprise clients will get the first dibs on the 24th :D
i still have my 3GS. Apple is launching iPhone 4G on June 2011 so i’d probably wait ’til the next iPhone :)
hmmmm in Plan ba yan agad or as is na you have to pay full price of the phone to own it…? =.=
Right you are! And the bloodshed continues…
now we will know who can afford & the one’s who can’t. i hope i’ll be those who can.
