New Zealand prices for Apple's iPhone 6 start at $1000 for the 16GB model. Well, $999 but we're not fooled. That's $50 cheaper than the cost of the lowest price iPhone 5S when it first launched here a year ago.
A 64GB iPhone 6 costs $1150 and the 128GB model is $1300.
Not everybody wants to, or can, stump up that much straight away so carriers offer lower up-front costs to customers
signing up for a 24 month plan. Remember you are entering a fairly hefty financial commitment. The most expensive plan
on this table will cost $3600 over two years. Here's a list of the publicly available plans for the iPhone 6 in New
Zealand.
At the time of writing there are still shortages of some models, so you may have to wait to get the model you want.
Table notes:
All plans in this table offer unlimited text messages, subject to fair use provisions. In practice you'll never hit
those limits in normal use.
All plans in this table are for 24 month terms.
If you go over your plan data caps there are options to buy more data. They are not cheap. Both Telecom NZ and Vodafone
charge 20 cents per megabyte as a casual rate when you bust your cap.
Unlimited voice minutes – also subject to fair use rules – can be used to call numbers in New Zealand and Australia.
