      Actually going thru alot of other websites its not as straight as it seems..

      299 – 499 is the ” Contract phones cost.. ” if u buy the phone without a contrat its more.. 649USD for the 16gb which is still alittle cheaper then UK.. but still silly money for a phone..

    I don’t understand why they are not making these phone water proof…ugh kind of frustrating since the galaxy has been water proofing the last two phones!

      Just be careful with it. If you need waterproofing that bad. You prob shouldn’t have an iPhone anyway. It’s really not that hard to just be cautious with a phone.

    Why is the iphone 6 so cheap in the US? Even the cheapest 16GB is $750 in the UK. How do I buy from the States?

      I guess this is some kind of contract you make with telecom companies like Verizon or something

      It’s because the UK are greedy even with the PlayStation four instance it’s about £200 cheaper if you buy in America but I don’t think you can use it in England because of the power source and the plugs but maybe you could buy a plug converter but I’m not sure

        PS4 is £80 cheaper in the states, not £200 and it works in the UK. Its all to do with duty, import and VAT. Cost of living is higher in the UK as well, so that is reflected in the cost of electronics and other goods.

        You can use it in the Uk , just use the charger you have for your iphone 5 as for the price you are correct it’s about £150 cheaper in the USA sim free, luckily I’m off to USA for a holiday next week, guess what I’m bringing back 😉

      The prices you see in the image are two-year contract prices. I’m guessing the price of an unlocked device would be around 900 USD or so.
