Singapore iPhone Fan

M1 has confirmed that it has closed a deal with Apple to sell iPhone in Singapore. Although the details have not been announced, M1 will launch Apple iPhone by end of the year. This will break SingTel exclusive sales of iPhone after 14 months. With two operators selling iPhone, there will be some fierce competitions. While I do not think the iPhone price will drop by a large amount, it is likely that they will compete on the subscription plan and data usage rate. In either case, it is definitely a good news for all the Singapore iPhone Fans

Remember I mentioned in my earlier post that if SingTel continues to be the exclusive iPhone distributor, I will definitely ditch my current mobile phone operator and switch to SingTel when my contract expires. Now I don’t have to do that. iPhone will probably be my best Christmas present for this year.

After a long wait, iPhone 3G is finally back at SingTel. From 7th Oct 09, Singapore iPhone Fans can go to any SingTel Retail Shops (hello! Shops), selected SingTel Exclusive Retailers (SERS) & Apple Premium Resellers to buy the iPhone. This is about a month wait after SingTel announcement the availability of iPhone 3G S in 10th July. Within weeks, the iPhone were out of stock. iPhone Fans had to register online for the new stock. When the new stock arrived in Sep, all the iPhone were snapped again. Finally, iPhone is back in Singapore. If you are keen to get an iPhone, better be fast. No registration or reservation is required. It is based on first come first served basis.

So, if you don’t want to be disappointed, be fast.
