I'm sorry but I think you might have found the child's pretend phone if its only $99.
Its still on the apple store as £500 for me, so its still overpriced shit.
My personal opinion is don't ever get an apple product, ever. You end up paying 2x as much for it because apple always puts its products 2x higher on the price bands.
I'll be getting an android phone when my contract is ready for upgrade. Android can do exactly the same as any iphone can and doesn't limit you hopelessly to apple-only everything.
You ruin your iPhone and they say "we need to have it checked by apple people only, nobody else, but we are going to charge you 100x the price of a normal phone repair guy to do it"
I soft-bricked my android tablet not so long ago, googled how to fix it and was done within an hour.
I would never buy anything apple. Just because its not worth it in my eyes, you're pretty much buying it for the apple on the back and an 'i' in its name.
And to br100x (I didn't click multi-quote, should have)
They certainly are, their shares plummeted recently and their net worth as a company decreased too. Android (google's new mobile OS) has 2 thirds of the smartphone market, so Apple is getting hit hard because like me, more and more people are enjoying the open minded happy approach of android and the larger variety of smartphones available to them.
You can tell they're under pressure too. Look at when they released the iphone 5. It was a few mm taller and a little bit thinner with very little other changes. but that was a "new" phone.
I'm sure we've all seen the evolution if iphone predicted
And of course the iphone's newest feature in development....the iphone-saber
