 @kanoneyez  Otherwise, signing a contract AND paying full price would actually cost the buyer more.

 

Only because you are paying 200-300% more than the rest of the world for that monthly contract charge.

 

That's why the Verizon/AT&T duopoly is anti-competitive.

Phone deposit $99 + sales tax $37 + activation $36 = $172.

(yes, you are paying tax on the FULL price of the phone.)

 

Minimum plan at $59.99 for 2 years = $1,439.76

 

End cost of phone = $1,611.76

 @nick0296 You realize that Microsoft also hold patents infringed on by Adroid devices.

 

Thats why Microsoft makes around $10-$20 on every Android device sold due to licensing agreements with the Android manufacturer.
