Virgin Mobile hops on iPhone 5S wagon, available starting October 1


Virgin Mobile will begin offering the iPhone 5S later in just a few days, but don’t expect some sort of subsidized pricings as the phone will likely come with an off-contract tag.




The nice thing about prepaid is that you’re not tied down to a two-year contract upon getting your phone, but the catch is you have a high up front cost.* Virgin Mobile, like any other prepaid carriers, offer phones at their full retail (or sometime even above) prices, and so we’re guessing the 5S will cost somewhere around $649.00 for 16GB and additional $100 increments for handsets with more storage.

The 5S isn’t a remarkably different device from that of the previous model, and people may not have much of an incentive to upgrade.* Still, with features like the fingerprint sensor embedded into the home button, the 5S is still an appealing buy.

Oh, Virgin Mobile is also offering the 5C.* The plastic remake of the iPhone 5 will, of course, cost less than the top-tier 5S.* Both handsets will become available starting October 1.
