Starhub will launch iPhone by end of the year
Posted by: iPhoneFan / Category: Buy & sell iPhone, iPhone NewsAnother good news for Singapore iPhone Fans. Today, Starhub announced that it has reached an agreement with Apple to sell iPhone in Singapore. Although there is no mention of the price and plan, it will launch the iPhone by end of the year. Starhub is the last Telco operators to announce offering iPhone after M1′s announcement last month. That means all the three operators will sell iPhone by end of the year.
As mentioned earlier, I don’t expect large reduction in the price of the phone. However, there will definitely be new creative way of bundling the data plan and applications with iPhone. Currently, both M1 and Starhub have data plans that cap the maximum charges. My guess is that SingTel will come up with similar plan given that it has lost its exclusive right to sell iPhone. I am also hoping them to come up with new iPhone applications related to Singapore context, eg ERP rate, cheapest parking rate, stock watch, latest local news, etc.
For me, I am really looking forward for my first iPhone when my contract expires end of the year, be it RED, ORANGE or GREEN.
