Tesco is to sell iphone

Hot off the press is news that Tesco have joined in on the iPhone war here in the UK. On the Tesco Direct website confirmation of their move has already been made. It is suggested they will do both the 3G and the 3GS but nothing as yet on pricings.

It is also to be noted that this is a joint partnership with O2 so we could speculate that the rates will stay the same but if tesco history of price slashing is anything to go by we may see them set a president for Orange and Vodaphone to follow.

Let the wars begin?

Should be in before Christmas.

Orange have announced the pricing structure for their Pay Monthly, Pay As You Go and Business plans for the iPhone in the UK. Rather unexpectedly no price war has erupted.

Available on Orange from November 10th, the published prices are strikingly similar to the current O2 offering. Take a look at Orange’s prices here and feel free to compare them to O2’s here.

With any luck, Vodafone will be a little more daring in their prices when they launch in the new year and bring the price down on the iPhone 3G and 3GS – both of which are often regarded as over-priced devices!

According to The Telegraph, Vodafone are expected to officially announce this morning that the iPhone will soon be available from them. This comes the day after Orange announced they will be offering the iPhone from October. Let the price wars begin!

You can register your interest at Vodafone’s iPhone website.

Orange have today announced that they will start to sell the iPhone later this year. There are no further details yet but you can pre-register your interest at the Orange iPhone website. Orange currently have the largest 3G coverage in the UK and their recently started merger with T-Mobile should improve this even further. Perhaps this deal might start a bit of a price war and reduce the cost of the iPhone and, better still, persuade O2 to improve their 3G coverage!
