Question: How Much Does an iPhone 3G Cost?
Answer:

Wondering how much you'll pay to get a shiny new iPhone 3G? Here what you can expect to pay to get your hands on Apple's slick smartphone.

The iPhone 3G is available from four authorized retailers: Apple, AT&T, Best Buy, and Walmart. All of them, except Walmart, charge the same price for the various iPhone models. (Walmart's prices are $2 cheaper.) All of these prices require that you sign a new two-year service contract with AT&T; existing AT&T customers who are eligible for an upgrade will get these prices, too.

  • 8GB iPhone 3G (Black): $199
  • 16GB iPhone 3G (Black): $299
  • 16GB iPhone 3G (White): $299
  • AT&T subscribers who are not yet eligible for a handset upgrade will be charged the following prices:

  • 8GB iPhone 3G (Black): $399
  • 16GB iPhone 3G (Black): $499
  • 16GB iPhone 3G (White): $499
  • All existing AT&T customers will be charged an upgrade fee of $18, whether or not they are eligible for the discounted prices.
