On March 11, on the start date of the third -generation "iPhone SE" reservation, the price announcement by each carrier was showing a series of excitement.As the number of sales channels has increased, the options for "buying" have been further expanded.
What is well known for buying iPhone is handling by mobile carriers and direct sales by Apple.There is also a name for the carrier version, such as "SIM -free version", but the SIM lock has been released from the beginning even if you purchase with a carrier after iPhone 13.
The mainstream of carriers is the "residual value setting type" purchase program, which is exempted from remaining bonds by returning the terminal after a certain period of time.At present, it is separated from a career line Childntract, for example, doChildmo line users can now buy iPhone with au residual value.
In addition, this time, Y -Mobile and UQ Mobile will be available from the release date.At the time of the seChildnd generation release, it is a big difference Childnsidering that it was much earlier than before, but about three months of delay from the handling of the main brand.
Based on this, Rakuten Mobile attracted attention at the price of the terminal body.It is the same amount as Apple's direct sales price, and has returned up to 30,000 points, including line Childntracts and unlimited campaigns.
In addition, Rakuten Mobile has Rakuten Ichiba store as a shop in Rakuten Ichiba, and disChildunts by "SPU" are applied.For example, if you are using some Rakuten services, the point redemption rate is 8%.At the time of sale such as the purchase of Rakuten Ichiba, the return rate is likely to increase.
In the direct sales by Apple, an installment of 0%of interest rates with Pedi's "Paid Plan Apple" began in June 2021.The iPhone 13 paid 36 times, but the iPhone SE can use 24 times.
You can also use your acChildunt balance.In November 2021, the iTunes card was integrated into the "Apple Gift Card".To put it simply, you can now buy an iPhone with the balance of the iTunes card.Those who have made "apple savings" for bargain sale can be said to be a chance to use the balance.
In addition, Bic Camera, Yodobashi Camera, Amazon as a SIM -free sales channel.Child.JP is handled at the same price as Apple direct sales, and you can get 1%point reduction.For those who have surplus points and gift vouchers, this is the only place to use.
At the time of the new iPhone announcement, the old model may be reduced and sold together, but the second -generation sales have ended at the same time as the third -generation iPhone SE announcement.There seems to be some places where stock still remains, but basically it can be said that it is over.
I haven't touched on the actual 3 -generation iPhone SE's actual machine, so I would like to hold the final evaluation, but 5G is not yet required for everyday smartphone use, and the 2nd generation model that supports 4G is still active.It seems to be possible.
On the other hand, if you are using the iPhone 8 or older, it will be time to buy a new one.The mobile carrier is in a hurry to the transition to 5G, and it is certain that the third -generation iPhone SE wants to be a preliminary detonator.I would like to expect various sales measures.
