A smartphone that requires a model change in 2-5 years.New models are announced regularly, so you'll want to buy a new one every year, but it's not cheap.How should I buy to save my smartphone model price?

Difference between over -the -counter purchase and career online shop purchase

Many people may change the model at the mobile shop store.However, changing the model at the store requires a "commission", and some stores and models may add "down payment".Previously, we had the staff supported the data migration and the initial settings, but now all the three major companies are charged various settings.If you combine data migration and takeover of each SNS (including LINE, etc.), it may cost about 30,000 to 40,000 yen when changing the model at the store, depending on the model you purchase.If you perform the model change procedure at each company's online shop, there will be no commission (and down payment).That alone will be about 3000 to 20,000 yen.If you really need support for data migration or initial settings, you can purchase online and pick it up at the store.Be sure to receive paid support only for the required settings.

About half price by split purchase discount of 3 major companies

Depending on the model, some smartphones handled by each telecommunications company can be purchased from the manufacturer.For example, on the iPhone, the selling price of Apple and the selling price of each telecommunications company are different, and is set higher than the Apple price.However, discount programs are prepared for the three major companies, and returning their smartphones in two years will only pay about half price.If you want to change the model in one or two years or do not need to keep your smartphone at hand, it is recommended that you make good use of the discount program.This discount program cannot be used for those who do not want to return a smartphone, so it is a great purchase method to purchase while comparing with manufacturers and online shopping.* Rakuten Mobile will be sold at the same amount as Apple, and discount programs will only be purchased with Rakuten Card.
