Boost Mobile to Offer iPhone 6 and 6 Plus Starting October 17 With $100 Discount

by

Boost Mobile confirmed that it would begin selling the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus starting next Friday, October 17, reports CNET. The new iPhones will join the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c in Boost's existing smartphone lineup.

Boost-Mobile
Boost Mobile, a division of Sprint, offers a no-contract prepaid service that requires users to purchase their phones at full price and pair them with prepaid mobile cellular and data plans. Unlike its competitors, Boost offers the iPhone at a discounted price, taking $100 off the full retail price of each available model. Prices start at $549 for the 16 GB iPhone 6, with the iPhone 6 Plus priced at $649 for the entry-level 16 GB model.

Boost's mobile plans include unlimited talk and texts along with data available in 1 GB, 5 GB and 10 GB allotments. From now until November 3, Boost is taking an additional $5 off the cost of its prepaid plans. Plan prices now cost $35 monthly for the 1 GB plan, $45 monthly for the mid-tier 5 GB plan and $55 monthly for the 10 GB option.

Boost joins several other prepaid carriers offering the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus. Prepaid options for the iPhone also are available from Consumer Cellular, Straight Talk, Net 10, and others.

That seems like an unusually good deal. It is a no-contract purchase of the new iPhones for $100 less than anywhere else. I wonder if anyone will but it and then take it directly to another carrier ;):cool::eek:

Since it's a sprint MVNO likely it will be locked just like sprint phones bought at full price so you might not be able to take it to another carrier.

Since they are locked to Sprint, its not surprising that they have inventory. The only 6+ I can find are Sprint versions. Verizon and TMobile are all sold out. :(
