Apple's latest phablet is finally up for grabs, and we've hunted down the best iPhone 8 Plus deals available ahead of its imminent release date.
If you have your eyes on the iPhone X, which will retail at £999 for the standard 64GB model, you'll have to wait until 27 October to place your order. This translates to 3:01 a.m. EDT on Friday, September 15, 2017, or 2:01 a.m. CDT on September 15, 2017. The smartwatch will be on offer with Verizon NumberShare at Dollars 10 per month for the first three months, for a limited time, with waived activation and upgrade fees.
We're getting close to the pre-order time for the iPhone 8. But unlike buying the phone in one lump sum, you don't get to keep your iPhone when you decide to trade it in. A word of warning for the worst plans we found, which are O2's "deals" that let you "pay for your device in full": the company charges £771.99 up front for a phone that Apple sells for £699, and still locks you in to a two-year contract on tariffs that start at £19 monthly. Customers can trade in their current iPhone when 50 percent is paid off, and the operator will wipe out remaining payments so that they can upgrade to their next iPhone "free and clear". Apple held their first special event at the new Apple Park campus where they announced the new iPhone 8, iPhone X and the Apple Watch Series 3. Non-Sky TV customers can add unlimited texts and calls for an extra £10 a month. Customers can also "mix and match" By the Gig and Unlimited on an account so each individual can have the data option that fits best. 5GB data | £49 per month If your data needs aren't that great, this O2 deal should be enough to keep you afloat with 4G for the month.
More pricing details will become available on operator websites.
