O2 announce UK iPhone prices and tariffs

O2 logoO2 will be bringing the new iPhone S to the UK from 19th June – and this morning they’ve unveiled a range of packages and prices for the new range.

Following Apple’s announcement yesterday of the new handset at their Wordwide Developers Conference (WWDC), we were told the US prices (without contract) would be $199 for the 16GB version and $299. The existing iPhone 3G would drop to $99.

Pay as you go customers on O2 will be able to grab the original iPhone 3G for £342.50, the 16GB iPhone S for £440.40 and the 32GB model for the eye-watering £538.30.

If you’re prepared to stump up £73.41 a month on an 18-month contract or £44.05 a month on a 24-month contract you can get the iPhone S 16GB for nowt, but to get the 32GB model free you’ll be tied into two years at £73.41.

Now the rub. If you’re an existing customer – perhaps you bought your iPhone 3G last year when it first came out – you won’t just be able to upgrade device. O2 will be holding their customers to the full contract length – so if you want to upgrade to the S you’ll either have to pay to get out of your existing contract or take out a new one in parallel. Alternatively you could opt to pay for an S on Pay-as-you-go – but that’s possibly a little expensive.

Full contract details below.
