Contract, or buy outright and add a SIM?
Add up the upfront cost and every monthly payment to see the true cost of a contract. Then compare it with £899 plus a SIM only plan over the same months. Buying outright is often cheaper over two or three years, especially with a low-cost SIM.
Contracts and Apple's finance both involve a credit check. CompareDirect is not a credit broker or lender; we list advertised terms and link to the network to buy.
