Hey, 

 

I'm considering upgrading to the iPhone XS but wondered if I waited a few weeks until the iPhone 11 is released whether the tariff/cost of the XS may come down or if it is likley to be uneffected and I will be offered the same deal then. If so I will just upgrade today as planned.

 

Thnx

@KJJ 

Apple generally reduce the price of the previous model when they release the new one but there is no guarantee that O2 would do so immediately as they may already have stock they have bought at full price.

If you want to save money by buying last years phone, you'll need to wait until around December time to see the best savings.

Thank you for info... 

 

Sods law will dictate - If I upgrade it'll go down/If I wait it won't ... 

 

I'm impatient so perhaps I will just upgrade!

It's all guesswork but if you go for refresh, there's a good chance of being able to sell the phone to pay off what you owe and upgrading again to the 11 if you wanted too.
