People have been asking me how much would the newly announced iPhone 4 will be priced once it arrives in the Philippines. There’s no exact answer to that but it doesn’t mean we can’t make a guesstimate.
When the iPhone 3GS was announced last year by Apple, they placed the post-paid price of the 16GB and 32GB at $199 and $299, respectively. The iPhone 4 is also at that same price point.
When the iPhone 3GS was officially announced by Globe, its official/exclusive Philippine carrier, the prices are as follows:
iPhone Prepaid Kits
iPhone 3GS 16GB – Php38,850
iPhone 3GS 32GB – Php42,250
Globe Regular Postpaid Plans (16GB)
Plan 500 – Php29,500
Plan 800 – Php25,350
Plan 1200 – Php23,100
Plan 1800 – Php19,050
Plan 2500 – Php11,850
Plan 3500 – Php3,950
Plan 5000 – Free
Plan 7000 – Free
Plan 10000 – Free
Globe Regular Plans (32GB)
Plan 500 – Php35,100
Plan 800 – Php30,950
Plan 1200 – Php28,700
Plan 1800 – Php24,650
Plan 2500 – Php17,450
Plan 3500 – Php9,550
Plan 5000 – Php1,000
Plan 7000 – Free
Plan 10000 – Free
Barring any other factors, including foreign exchange rates and other tariffs, we can expect the iPhone 4 to be within a close vicinity of these prices if not exactly the same (I’d give it a 10% variance).
Globe has recently discounted the prices of the remaining iPhone 3GS in their inventory which supports the premise of this theory.
Here’s one thing I think I’m very confident of — the iPhone 4 16GB will be free on Plan 5000 and the iPhone 4 32GB will be free on Plan 7000.
The earliest expected availability of the iPhone 4 is September but Globe insiders peg it at 4th quarter of this year.
How often does Apple deliver iPhone4s to Globe PH?
We just ordered…about 3 days na.
just wanna ask you guys about how many days or weeks or even months will you receive your iPhone4?
And
Does MYSUPERUNLI 599 exceed prices?
I mean we had iPhone3G and we brought it back to Globe after paying the bills. Plan2k+ I think.. and after 2 months the bill was 10k+ . I said WHOAAA!
that’s too big. because I was in a Month Unlimited Texts Globe to Globe . and I had’nt called much after I subscribed to that.. and still the bills were “higher than I expected” . turns out I’m not the only one who knows that Globe sucks. But What Can I Do?
I want iPhone4 so badly. That it Had’nt Come up to me that Globe’s bills are “off-the-capacity” .. though I hope it does’nt exceed that much. :)
Please I need Answers A.S.A.P.
Thanks So Much Guys!
Godbless and Have a nice week!

nice……..
Iphone’s are really easy to get here in the UK. A lot of carriers here offer iphone 3GS/4 plans at an affordable price..
I got my iphone4 16gb at GBP99 and GBP30 monthly and the plan really works for me.
I used to “not get” why people love the iphone, but as soon as I held my iphone4 i “got it”..
Best money I’ve ever spent. Its like buying a digital camera, camcorder, dictaphone, and a whole load of other stuffs in one beautiful package..
iPhone 5 is coming next year Q2..
