iPhone 5s and 5c Philippine Price Guesstimate for Globe



Apple announced two new iPhones: the 5s and the 5c. I've been thinking of what could be the possible pricing of these two new phones. Then I found these two brochures containing the cashout prices of the 4S and the 5 when getting a postpaid plan from Globe.

This is from the brochure of the 4S:
Plan 999 (Unli Surf):
16GB - P23,976
32GB - P30,299
64GB - P35,299

And this is from the brochure of the 5:
Plan 999 (Unli Surf):
16GB - P19,200
32GB - P23,976
64GB - P30,000

As you can see from the prices, the cashout of the 5 is actually lower than the 4S! If this trend continues to the 5s, we may see the same or even lower cashout prices than this.

Here's my guesstimate for the cashout prices of the 5s:
Plan 999 (Unli Surf):
16GB - P16,800/P19,200
32GB - P19,200/P23,976
64GB - P23,976/P30,000

With that in mind, there's still one more question to be answered: how will the 5c be priced?

If I were Globe and I would want to sell many 5c's, this would be the cashout pricing:

Plan 999 (Unli Surf):
16GB - P2400/P4800
32GB - P7200/P9600

Let me remind you guys that these are merely guesses and I could be wrong. I just wish this is correct and call it a day. Haha.
