Edible Apple

If you’re a Sprint subscriber who has been contemplating getting an iPhone, now may be the perfect time to pounce.

Not too long ago, Sprint dropped the price of the iPhone 4S to $150 with a 2-year contract. Today, it sweetened the deal even more by dropping the buy-in price to $49, the result of a $100 American Express gift card.

And with Apple now price-matching iPhone sales offers, customers can pick up an iPhone 4S at an Apple Store for $150 and a $100 Apple Store gift card – with an obligatory 2-year contract of course.

This is likely the cheapest price-point at which you’ll be able to pick up an iPhone 4S, that is until of course Apple releases the iPhone 5 in late September. It’ll be interesting to see, though, if the iPhone 3GS remains the “free with contract” device or if Apple will slide down the iPhone 4 to that position.

Lastly, note that Sprint’s generous offer is only available via online and expires on August 26.
