Before DiGi announced their plans and packages for iPhone 4, Maxis officially released their own package and plans yesterday. As expected, there is a slight drop in the price for iPhone 4 as compared to iPhone 3GS, in which you can get an iPhone 4 32GB at RM1,790 with a 1-year contract on iValue 1 Plan (RM100 per month). It&#8217;s cheaper than purchasing an iPhone 3GS 16GB via the same plan!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/iphone4-thumb.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2815 aligncenter\" title=\"iphone4-thumb\" src=\"http:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/iphone4-thumb.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"210\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #c0c0c0;\">The Plans and Packages<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/iphone4.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2812 aligncenter\" title=\"iphone4\" src=\"http:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/iphone4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"344\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">There is also iData Plan, but iData 1 plan has been removed! The minimum fee for iData plan is now RM50 for 500MB of data bundle. With iData 2, you can purchase an iPhone 4 32GB at RM2,390 on a 1-year contract.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.maxis.com.my\/personal\/iphone4\/rates.asp\" target=\"_blank\">Full Rates and Plans is available Here.<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #c0c0c0;\">Contract Upgrade<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>For those who are already under phone contract with Maxis (iPhone and any other\u00a0smartphones), you can purchase iPhone 4 by extending your contract by 12 or 24 months depending on the iPhone 4 package that you choose.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Contract upgrade allows existing customers on a contract to purchase a new iPhone while retaining their existing mobile number.<\/p>\n<p>If you are currently under a phone contract with Maxis (iPhone and selected smartphones), then you are eligible for a contract upgrade*. A contract upgrade extends your current contract for either 12 or 24 months depending on how many months is left on your existing contract.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, if you are on a 12 months contract with 6 months remaining, you can purchase an iPhone 4 by extending the months on your current contract. Your new contract duration will be a total of your remaining months + the new contract upgrade period.<\/p>\n<p>E.g. 6 months (remaining contract) + 12 months (new contract upgrade) = 18 months (new contract period)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So, while you&#8217;re not actually saving money, you&#8217;re actually saving time! Because you don&#8217;t have to wait until your contract ends in order to purchase iPhone 4! \u00a0This is good for those who are desperate to get iPhone 4!<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #c0c0c0;\">Availability<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>But before you start bombarding the Maxis centres near you, please be aware that iPhone 4 will be available at selected Maxis Centres <span style=\"color: #ffcc00;\"><strong>from 26 September 2010<\/strong><\/span> and other selected Maxis Centres nationwide <span style=\"color: #ffcc00;\"><strong>from 27 September 2010!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The keywords here are SELECTED and FROM.
