iPhone 6 Available In Bermuda For $1,189

September 25, 2014

iphone6-thumbApple’s latest smartphone, the much-hyped iPhone 6, is now in stock in Bermuda, with Audio Visual Electronics reporting that the coveted gadget is currently in stock.

While the iPhone 6 Plus is not currently on sale, it is expected to be available for demonstration purposes soon.

Kevin Davies from Audio Visual Electronics said, “The current retail price for an iPhone 6 is $1,189, but that can change daily. Demand for the phone has been heavy since its release.

“The prices have dropped up to $200 on the iPhone 5S, with models now starting at $849, making the iPhone 5S a great deal since the launch of the iPhone 6.”

The official Apple website says, “iPhone 6 isn’t simply bigger — it’s better in every way. Larger, yet dramatically thinner. More powerful, but remarkably power efficient. With a smooth metal surface that seamlessly meets the new Retina HD display.

“It’s one continuous form where hardware and software function in perfect unison, creating a new generation of iPhone that’s better by any measure.”

“Built on 64-bit desktop-class architecture, the new A8 chip delivers more power, even while driving a larger display. The M8 motion coprocessor efficiently gathers data from advanced sensors and a new barometer.

“And with increased battery life, iPhone 6 lets you do more, for longer than ever.”

About iOS 8, Apple’s latest smartphone operating system, the company’s official website says, “It’s not just iPhone 6 that’s bigger. The world’s most advanced mobile operating system has made a huge leap, too.

“iOS 8 has new capabilities and functions that let you do things you could only imagine before, like using Siri to control the devices in your home or using your health and fitness apps to communicate with your doctor.

“Developers now have deeper access and more tools to bring some of the amazing new features of iOS 8 to their apps. And it all looks great on the large Retina HD display.”

    Whoa, whoa, (wipes eyes)….$1189!!!! For a phone that can bend in an instant while in your pocket?

    I’ve never spent that much on a phone and I’m always in constant contact with my family and friends and can keep up with the latest news and gossip on my $250 phone (I didn’t want to pay that much, I’m cheap).

    To all you diehard apple addicts, enjoy. My $1189 will be spend on LOTS of other things.

    • Watcher55 says:

      The bendy phone is the 6 plus not the one on sale, the $1189 is for the smallest gig and goes to 1,300 and 1,500 for the 128 gig, can’t wait to see the price of a 6 plus 128 gig $900 US T-Mobile no contract

      • Chrispy says:

        The bending phone issue is on both the iPhone and the iPhone Plus but it is much worse on the Plus. The Regular iPhone 6 isn’t immune.

        PS: I still want one.

        • Think Bermuda says:

          You might want to check Consumer Reports recent tests that show the 6 bends at a lower pressure than the Plus

    • MP says:

      Why do people always feel the need to make comments such as these? If I choose to spend my money on a phone you don’t want, who cares? Do you comment when people buy a car that costs $700 more than yours? Or when people buy a $50 bottle of wine instead of a six-pack of beer? So you get satisfaction buying ‘lots’ of other things with the $750 you ‘saved’…congrats. We each get satisfaction out of different things so if one chooses to buy a new iPhone…who cares?

    Over a $1000 Dollar’s — this is the ultimate Rip off ! – no shame in the price game’

    Samsung has the best phone and a little cheaper! Iphone has found away to brainwash people around the world. Just remember people Steve Jobs is dead!

    • George says:

      I have BOTH – an Apple 5c and a Samsung Galaxy 5 -
      The Apple takes more detailed and accurate Photo shots, can get more Apps, more clearer sounding Phone,
      more detailed sounding when it comes to Music, overall it’s easier to use.
      My Samsung is great for texting, it’s slower on the Email, it’s bigger, the Camera is a bit dull compared to the Apple 5C, the Battery last longer,but it’s not built as good as the Apple 5c.- also not as many asserories as the I phones.
      I found the Apple I phone the better of the both. – but to each his own!
      I purchased both unlocked in NY for $800.
      $1000 + for any Phone is taring the %#@#XXX% out of it.- Lets not get Crazy Bermuda!

      RE: Just remember people Steve Jobs is dead!

      What’s that got to do with anything – you don’t think there are other very smart people now running Apple???

      • LickMyChicken says:

        Not that smart. They’ve created a phone that bends LOL

      WHAT THATS SUPPSOE TO MEAN? MICHAEL JACKSON IS DEAD BUT U STILL LISTEN TO HIS MUSIC

  5. crackattack says:

    why do people always act surprised when they see the price of the latest iphone listed as over $1000. What do you expect?

    The lowest model iPhone6 costs $650 off contract. That’s around $700 after taxes. Assuming they flew out there to pick up the devices and we are ignoring that cost, it’ll be 33% on each device to Bermuda Customs. (.33*650)+700=$914

    Now if the company wants to stay in business they need to sell for a profit hence the ~$200 markup

    Why do people always act so surprised?

    • IPHONE6L says:

      NOPE YOUR WRONG THE DUTY RATE ON PHONE ARE 22.5% THROUGH COURIERS.. AND THATS HOW AUDIO VISUAL GOT THEM.

      • onion gal says:

        Plus don’t forget the clearing charges on top of the duty too!

    • nothing up my sleeve says:

      not to mention buying in bulk to get a discount on cost.

  6. paul says:

    do not buy trust me

  7. MAKE MY DAY says:

    You have to be out-of-your-mind to pay that type of $$$ for a “phone”!!!

    With Consumer Cellular in the states – I pay $20 a MONTH for 600 minutes nationwide! They also sent me a FREE “sim card” to install in my wife’s old iphone 3!! So in effect I have a *smart phone* for nada – zilch – zero!!!

    You just CAN’T beat that for competitive service!!

  8. Juice says:

    $1200 is about right for what to expect for an off contract iphone in Bermuda. Markups on an already expensive device have to be done and this is the price you get, its been that way since the iphones before.
    I guess its particularly painful because there are phones that have been out for months now that are quite superior to this model iphone and cost about $300 less.

  9. Tom says:

    That’s my rent I like roof better than a phone !

  10. Ty says:

    On black friday in November it will be $400.00 I think I can wait till then.

  11. PBanks says:

    The mobile phone market – one of the few recession-proof businesses around nowadays.

  12. IPHONE6L says:

    OH YES! I’M GETTING THIS!!! I’LL HAVE TO WORK FOR 7 DAYS TO GET THIS.. SO I GUESS I’LL STARVE FOR 2 WEEKS AND DON’T PAY MY GYM FEE, CELL BILL, AND BELCO BILL FOR THIS MONTH… AUDIO SAVE ME ONE..

  13. nothing up my sleeve says:

    FOR ONLY $1,189! What a great deal, no….. wait… totally not a great deal! be careful people the iPhone 6 plus bends pretty easy as i have seen, so get a belt clip or don’t put in pocket while wearing skinny jean.

  14. typical says:

    typical bermudians… if you want the phone buy it, if you want to spent the $$ buy it, if you’re not going to buy it, ahhhhhh stfu and use your Motorola StarTAC and be content…

  15. Keepin' it Real!...4Real! says:

    Iphone 6 just over $200 to produce it… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IghsmsAAlvw

  16. What Up says:
