Chinese Carriers Cut iPhone Contract Prices

In Beijing, China Telecom has cut the price of some of 24-month contracts for the 16-gigabyte iPhone 5S by
as much as 24% or 1,288 yuan ($212). Without a plan, the iPhone 5S starts at 5,288 yuan. China Telecom
has also cut some of the package prices of the less expensive iPhone 5c by 24%. An unsubsidized 16-
gigabyte iPhone 5C in China costs 4,488 yuan.
