Apple iPhone 6 became the best-selling smartphone. Users like the smartphone of its size, the amount of memory, colors and other.

We should note that iPhone 6 Plus is also popular, even despite the fact that Jobs says that the big smartphone uncomfortable and useless. The company took a chance and got success.

However, the price of the smartphone is quite high, so buyers started looking for where to buy cheap iPhone 6.

As you know, the price of iPhone 6 in the US are the cheapest. The basic version of the iPhone 6 with 16 GB of memory costs $ 199, the price of the model with 64 GB is $ 299, and the maximum version to 128 GB is estimated at $ 399. iPhone 6 Plus is even more expensive, starting at $ 299 for 16 GB version.

When someone finds such a low price, he quickly went to the US to buy a smartphone from US retailers.

However, not all so simple. Attractive price tags «official price» is a clever marketing trick.

In fact, each iPhone 6 tied up a contract with a particular mobile operators such as AT&T, Verizon and Sprint.

The problem is:

Everyone who buys a smartphone in the US operator, signed a two-year contract under which he is obliged to use only the services of the operator. It sounds good, if you live in the United States. However, if you leave the country, your phone will be locked (at least the next two years).

The second point that you should note that when using smartphones on the contract you’re really overpaying.

Therefore, if you ask local residents to buy your phone – most likely they will refuse.

So you can buy the iPhone 6 in the US stores only if you plan to stay there for the next couple of years.
