Iphone Mtn Contract Deals 2021

The iPhone 13 series became available in South Africa in October 2021, with the iStore offering contract deals through MTN, Vodacom, and Telkom. Starting prices for the iPhone 13 range were R14 999 for the iPhone 13 mini, R17 299 for the standard iPhone 13, R21 499 for the iPhone 13 Pro, and R23 699 for the iPhone 13 Pro Max on cash purchases^[1].

For MTN contracts, customers were able to pre-order via the iStore website and select various deals that included options like trade-in to reduce monthly fees^[1]. The exact monthly fees for MTN contracts in 2021 are not fully itemized in the available sources; however, similar Vodacom contracts started at R549 per month for 36 months or R749 per month for 24 months. Telkom’s FreeMe 1.5GB contract started from R699 per month^[1].

The iStore also promoted a “Contract Price Freeze” in October 2021, allowing customers to trade in their older iPhones to offset and potentially stabilize their upgrade costs with MTN and other networks, which could result in lower monthly payments depending on device condition and trade-in value^[2].

At the time, iStore facilitated contract applications and upgrades across major network providers, including MTN, and supported features like the iCare protection plan for Apple devices taken out on contract^[3].
