Apple’s iPhone 18 Pro series and folding iPhone Duo have officially launched. Due to the increase in stand-alone selling prices of the iPhone 18 Pro series this year and the high-priced iPhone Duo itself, many Apple fans are paying attention to the telecom contract price. Far EasTone Telecommunications took the lead in announcing the new phone tariff plan.
Judging from the plan announced by Far EasTone, if you want to buy a new iPhone for “0 yuan” this year, the options are quite limited. Only the iPhone 18 Pro 256GB with a high monthly payment of 2,699 yuan and a 48-month contract can be purchased for 0 yuan. As for the more expensive iPhone Duo, there is no 0 yuan plan.
If we look at the more mainstream monthly payment of 1,399 yuan and a 36-month contract, the purchase price of the iPhone 18 Pro 256GB is 27,300 yuan, and the iPhone 18 Pro 256GB is 32,300 yuan. Both models are 6,000 yuan more expensive than last year’s models of the same level.
Overall, as the stand-alone selling price of new phones increases this year, the purchase threshold after being bundled with telecoms also rises. Whether it is more suitable to buy the phone directly or to match it with telecom tariffs, it is best for people to calculate this account clearly before making a purchase. Don’t just look at how much you have to pay for the phone now. The monthly rental fee, contract period, and your usual Internet usage and tariff needs must also be taken into consideration.
