[tags]iphone 4 in the philippines[/tags]
Calling all Apple fanboys: the Apple + AT&T iPhone is now on sale in the Philippines. All for a very low, low price of Php35,000. No 2-year contract needed. I can hook you up if you’re interested.
No kidding. This is serious. Just learned about this last week-end. Apparently, some very enterprising Filipinos bought several iPhones in the U.S. and shipped them all here. It costs $499 & $599 there so a local price of Php35,000 seems very reasonable. Even for just a glorified touch-screen iPod video, it’s still cool. I think I’m gonna pick one for myself. Anybody else?
whoaaa! iphone… anyone in here got an idea where i can get those n99i’s? saw my cousin last week with this cool gadget and i think i have to get one of those
hmm doesnt make sense to buy an iphone that doesnt work now when you can wait 4 months and buy an iphone that will work.
besides, theres a huge apple event next week here

I think the price is OK for a WiFi terminal. Note however that YouTube does NOT work without AT&T service.
I think it will work as a phone in 4 months. In fact, I bet the US version and the Asian version of the iPhone will be the same. No hardware difference.
The only thing that will trigger it to work as a phone is an OS update. Meaning, they can ship the same phones they sell in the US and sell it in the Philippines. Once Apple releases the new software that will unlock it, the iPhone will be open-line.
So, between now and 4 months, you get a glorified iPod video. Once they officially launch it 4 months from now, just update it with the new software release and use it as a phone.
There’s no need to wait. Buy now! hehehe
Hi! It’s really good news. Ok. When do we buy a iphone and where? I’m gonna buy it right now.
Please, leave a message.
Hey guys,
Check out alexa today. Everyone’s down.
I still don’t see any sense in getting it right now, this is just me. I’d rather buy a new desktop with 35 grand.
its not only an ipod video, its a wifi browser and a decent enough camera as well hehe.
to the guy asking for n99i.
there is no Nokia n99i

Somehow I don’t agree with Kuya Abe (hehe feeling close…). I bet that the US version of the iPhone will not work without any hacks.
Imagine if it will be unlocked only through an OS update, it will mean that those in US will also easily unlock their iPhones away from AT&T.
I believe an OS approach to to unlocking the iPhone is a much, much cheaper alternative for Apple than a hardware one.
When the 60GB iPod video came out, it retailed for Php33,000. And people kept on buying them. The iPhone is way cooler than that, justifying the price.
Wala bang pinapa-raffle? Pwede rin x-deal… hehehehe
It is actually more probable that the versions of iPhone to be released in Asia has a different hardware (making it work with other simcards) as compared to the ones available in US.
And if it is just software, it should have been already cracked by now.
the iphone 06 US version is tied up with At&T USA for whole 5 years-both apple company and ATT wont screwed up each other by allowing apple company to release its “asian” version nonetheless the “any sim” iphone . . its a multi million investment and these 2 companies are serious to do business together. cracking the iphone to enable it to receive any network sim is possible. Php 35K iphone is cheap considering you are getting it right in the phils, that is if its true.. 4gig is $499 and 8 gig is 599 here plus tax….
iphone is revolutionary in terms of touch screen technology and its internet browsing. i have one now-i got it yesterday and hooked it with prepaid At&T network…very cool… smart fon in a new whole way…
i am going back to the phils next week and i will terminate the service and swill till enjoy the upgraded ipod features…but the phone and sms.
guys, you might as well one for you now. dont wait til they drop the price because it wont happen. knowing the apple company, they will just take the unwanted stocks to the recycling and shoot…recycle it.
all the best,
stan

Went inside an Apple store yesterday. They had like 10 iPhones on public display and most units had someone or a group of people looking at it and trying it out. I didn’t go there to buy an iPhone. Hehe I was just showing the iPhone to my wife and father-in-law who also happens to love gadgets.
Is PHP35K for the 4GB or 8GB?
Hi
Do you offer unlocked iphone? Where can we buy the iphone?
Thanks
I dont think there is such fully legally unlocked iphone “yet”. Let’s just wait till Apple releases it in Asia. Anyway, got mine already and so far it exceeded my expectation way way more
Sadly, probably the most objective iPhone review ever.
i get iphone & its really cool…you go freindster,yahoo,googles etc…if you buy one you wont regret..
Is 35k the last price? are they selling it for terms or by credit card? heheheh! Unfortunately i don’t have enough cash right now….
i want to buy iphone that i can surely use in the philippines using a smart line or globe line…anyone can give me a nice offer? if ever please tell me where i can buy it..thanks in advance to you all..
