MTN and Telkom will offer iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus from today (24 October).
MTN says the iPhone 6 will be available starting at R499 per month and iPhone 6 Plus will be available starting at R649 per month. MTN will allow iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus customers to connect to MTN’s 4G LTE network.
iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus feaure 4,7-inch and 5,5-inch Retina HD displays, and include innovative technologies in a thin and seamless design that is still comfortable to hold and easy to use.
Both models include the Apple-designed A8 chip with second generation 64-bit desktop-class architecture; advanced iSight and FaceTime HD cameras; and ultrafast wireless technologies.
The new iPhones include iOS 8, featuring a simpler, faster and more intuitive user experience with new Messages and Photos features, predictive typing for Apple’s QuickType keyboard and Family Sharing. iOS 8 also includes the new Health app, giving you a clear overview of your health and fitness data and iCloud Drive, so users can store files and access them from anywhere.
“Telkom is excited to offer great plans for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus,” says Attila Vitai, MD: Telkom Mobile and Consumer. “With our recent announcement of being named the best mobile broadband provider in South Africa, we feel that our technology will be complimented by that of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus.”
In addition, iPhone 5s will be available from Telkom, starting from R299pm and iPhone 5c from R239pm.
