hi ckciagi I got my iphone4s just 2 weeks ago, I avail it through a postpaid plan promo of globe telecom, there's a lot people availing this promo that's why you have to wait for a long time to get your phone even if your application is already approved, in my case I waited for almost a month but it's worth waiting because I really like my new phone it is so cool, so useful, and it is really smart, there's a lot of nice features that you will really appreciate. I suggest you get the plan that has unlimited internet connection because iPhone works better if it is connected in the internet.

wow congrats!! you're lucky that you didn't have to wait for so long like me what plan did you avail? I availed plan 1,7++ for the 32G unit..what color did you choose? I guess it's white?! because I noticed most women choose white over the black one.

HI I am also interested, with the plan of globe, does the iphone free if you plan for it?

Free? Technically no. Because if you apply for a plan, you would have to pay a down payment which depends on the kind of plan and the kind of phone you are getting. Plus you will be locked on that network for 2 years. For example, you will avail of Globe's unlimited call and text plan worth 599 pesos and you want an iPhone 4S 16 Gb, this would be the amount you would have to pay on the day of your application: iPhone 4S + My Super Unli Plan = 28,698 pesos. Aside from that, you would have to pay 599 pesos per month (exclusive of texts or calls to other networks and use of internet services), so technically getting a phone from Globe or any other networks is not free.

Well if you have the money to pay your down payment and monthly bills, then go for it. I guess that's the only way we Filipinos could get a hand at that incredible iPhone 4S without really hurting our pockets. Most of my classmates are also thinking of the same thing. In fact, two of them already have their new iPhones (which I kind of envy :)). A friend of mine also inquired at Globe and she's now waiting for her new phone. Due to so much demand, Globe is running low on stocks so my friend has to wait at least 2 weeks before her phone would be delivered on her house. Anyway, like what I said earlier, if you have the means of applying for a line then go cause iPhone 4S seems to be a good investment.
