iPhone5 priced at around 1300$ in lebanon

I’ve asked 4 mobile stores already and they all gave me prices between 1200$ and 1350$. I also saw a price close to 1300$ on the internet. Added to that, the Nano SIM won’t be an issue as they’ve figured out a way to turn the micro SIM into a Nano SIM.

Is it worth it? Definitely not! It’s almost 500$ more expensive than its original price outside.

    Priced $1000+ when it costs around 300$ to manufacture…at least I can say: No, I don’t want my money stolen.

    Dear Desmond Bey, iPhone 5 is not yet available from Apple Store, it’s only available in carriers stores, it means there’s no Non-contract iPhone 5 yet :))

    I got it with contract for 200 swiss francs / 200 $ , The design is beautiful, it really looks nicer than the Iphone 4S, it is faster but otherwise it’s the same, i only got it, because my contract ended last week…but i am still using my Iphone 4S it’s still brand new and i don’t see a lot of difference…i love apple products but i would not have bought the Iphone 5 without an offer…

      Iphone is so overrated, it’s a good product though, i prefer to buy it when the price is reasonable even if it’s not cool to have it old ….
      My Iphone 2g rocks :P and it has ios 5 ;)

    update on the price its around 700-750$ now, w its apple so it will be more expensive then other brands like always.
    If you have iphone 4s, its not much of upgrade, but it quiet nice phone it’s thinner, lighter and better hardware.
    Overall phone is rly elegant.
