[tags]iphone 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
if you have questions text me here… 0919 3477 888. i will respond to you in as much as i can.
see you guys.

Looks like Jayvee is jealous of you Yugatech.
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..
slightly off topic… but anyone in the US who owns an iPhone would have noticed that Philippines is not even in the drop down selection for country when entering an address for a contact…Like it matters, a future update can probably fix that…but just my observation. :/
nah, ill wait till the iPhone is subsidized by the local telecom companies. patience is a virtue…
Hi. I wana buy an Iphone, Where? How many gig is the P35,000? Is it unlocked na? Contact me pls at 09157769734.
hey!i want an iphone!are you sure it can work here in the phils?i really like to buy one now!no matter how much it is!
email me if you want to order an iphone.I have 10 ones I bought from the US on the first week of release.looking to sell them here.
8GB Behold the iPod Touch!
Posted Sep 5th 2007 1:43PM by TMZ Staff
Filed under: Z-Gadgets
Apple has just announced a brand new, full touch-screen, Wi-Fi enabled iPod. Gadget geeks, start your engines!
The new iPod Touch will come in 8GB and 16GB, with prices of $299 and $399, respectively. The new Touch will also feature a Wi-Fi music store for downloading your tunes directly to your iPod. Sweet.
Other big Apple announcements today include: The iPhone is now $200 cheaper (8GB version for $399), the regular iPod (now the iPod Classic) is now $249 for the 80GB version and $349 for a 160GB version, and the iPod Nano now has a video screen — $149 for the 4GB, $199 for the 8GB.
I still wanted the 8GB iphone, better than ipod touch.. $399
hi to all!

Hi Guys How can U unlocked the Iphone it says there 1. Plug iPhone into iTunes (Keep original ATT sim in the iPhone) - Wait Till iTunes Recognizes it.—>>> but our iphone doesnt have a sim, you cant even put any sim on it even at&T ..so Im confused now , are there new models which you can put sim card. Mine doesnt have only by connecting it to i tunes…Please someone clear my confusions..Thanks
no you dont need to have at&t sim card to unlocked it, who the hell said that….
what you need is a software to unlocked the iphone. itunes is just to restore the iphone then proceed to the unlocking process. now if you phone is new that says in the screen activate the phone dont mind itunes and just use the software to unlock it.
if you want instruction here it is.
http://cre.ations.net/creation/ibrickr
check that site out…
there is more that need to be done after you jailbreak the activation which is the coding.. and you have to use putty software for that.
Thx! Paul. If u dony mind can i ask ur cp no. for more info thx.

Anytime.. Hope you got the tutorials right. its a bit tricky but you will get it just follow the instruction right, for me it took me a whole good one day to figure all out.. heh but i know you can do it.

Hello? wala na bang interasado dyan na magbasa at sagutin ang tanong ko tungkol sa iphone?. Mas mura kasi kung bibili ka ng locked iphone sa abroad at dalhin sa Pinas para ipa-unlock. Dun naman sa hindi makabili ngayon, hintay na lang at baka bumaba din ang presyo niyan.
MGA HANGAL, DAMI NA IPHONE SA GREENHILLS 24K LANG UNLOCKED, KUNG SAANSAN PA KAYO NAGHAHANAP, PARA NAMANG BAGO PA KAYO SA PINAS..
got two iphones, one for me and the other for my bf only for Php40,000 inclusive of tax charges by apple, shipment charges by johnny air cargo and free unlocking services courtesy of a friend. and now we are enjoying it grabe!
note: iphones we bought are 8gb bnew.
P35,000 are you f***ing serious …iphone doesn’t cost that much. you’re practically selling the damn phone for about $775 with out warranty. its a rip off! it also prabobly made in china. you gotta lower the price bro! you’re ripping everybody off. Give it 1 more year and iphone price will be half of what it cost now or prabobly be free with a plan. I can’t believe you peeps that you would actually buy a phone that lacks 3G tech., only has 2MP Camera, cannot make video call etc. I have freinds here in US who actually bought iphone and after a couple of months they were envying my phone(N95). Lets put it this way Iphone is cool to have but it aint worthy.
n99i f0r saLe.. 15k.. sLightLy used, m0re than a m0nth p Lng.. msg me in friendster my emailadd is l0ve_k0h_t0h_02@yahoo.com.. (0 = zer0s)
P35,000.00!! What a crock of sheeeeehit. When it comes to pinoys, harang talaga.
Just wait folks, just a little more. Thru official or legit channels, the iPhone will arrive and will sell for P22,500 to P27,000 only.
Some predict it to be a flop in the Phils because the Phils historically hasn’t been Apple country and is on the pricey side. Well, they couldn’t be more wrong. First of all, it isn’t expensive and the iPhone being a wonderful seemless device, people in the Phils will eat it all up. But then again, if not, better! For there won’t be a supply shortage and the price will go down if there is less than expected demand!!! Peace!
an iphone is cool! i’ll have it this december.. pero some of the features are not working.. sa 2008 pa. aw.. what features are not working for now?
hi, anyone know where i can buy IPHONE that is openline, 8gig and was a warrenty. and how much?
thank you! ^^,
where can i buy the iphone? here in the philippines
