Early adopters, rejoice! The iPhone 5 will finally become available in the Philippines thru Widget City.
Widget City is currently “soliciting” thoughts and interest from their fans through their Facebook page. As for the price:
16gb: PhP47,000
32gb: PhP56,000
64gb: PhP61,000
We are still waiting for price update from Widget City. Some may find WC’s price quite steep; but remember, these are grey units and WC needs to impute custom charges and fee. As a matter of fact, WC’s offering is the lowest, if rumors about Infomaxx selling the iPhone 5 for not less than PhP72,000.
We suggest that if you are not an early adopter, it’s best to wait until December when Globe and Smart start offering the iPhone 5 officially.
What are you thoughts on this? Do you find Widget City’s price awesome or you’re just going to wait until December? Please hit the comments below.
